Have u found any help? I've been going on 4 yrs also and I've seen 6 different drs at Mayo and they just dismiss me. I think they just don't want to deal with it. I begged my primary for the medicine albendazole cuz I've tried everything else without a prescription and he wouldn't. They are in every part of my body now and getting to end of dealing with this alone. I have probably 1000 pics and are pretty disturbing. I don't know how I've lasted thru this without losing it totally. I am going to a different emergency ward in the next couple days. Sick of trying to be my own surgeon and wearing gloves 24/7. I have found I was contaminating my own food by touching it with bare hands. I will try and let u know what happens.

Anyone have River Blindness in Southeastern US?

I have been dealing with a disabling and debilitating Parasitic ailment for more than 5 years now.

Started with tremendous hair loss and a scab on the outer corner of my left eye that couldn’t be removed. Also, Visible bugs Deep under dermis. And darker colored hairs than my natural hair color around these insects deep under skin. Have developed leopard spots and thin crepey looking skin on lower limbs on arms and legs.

As I am ONLY on Medicaid, and already on all types of meds due to seizures and resulting bone fractures, I have been prejudged as a drug seeker or someone with delusory parasitosis.

Specialist after specialist do not seem to have enough empathy to actually LISTEN to me. Much less diagnose me and help heal me properly. They will not view my thousands of pix of the striped large insects that are ejected in my stool (only during certain cycles of life stages.

I’m under age 50, female & Ive had part of my lung removed and have Glaucoma in one eye already. Not to mention several broken metatarsal bones in one foot. My teeth are now falling out. They are black!

I’ve resorted to taking canine versions of Ivermectin matching my weight every 4-5 months with Gawd Awful side effects.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to route my way thru this medical world, to find a tropical neglected disease specialist, an epidemiologist, who’s willing to diagnose me and properly eliminate the adult worms? I need at least 4-6 weeks of Doxycycline to eliminate the adult worms.

I am ready to end my life over this bloody horror & travesty of inaccurate & indifferent medical specialists.

Please—I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired.

I WANT MY LIFE BACK!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you 🙏🏻

Mites……they can be dust mites or scabies…..in hair and on your skin ….look like tiny scabs? Then it could be scabies….contagious…..go to dermatologist to confirm. Dr takes skin sample and sends it to lab….

They not only look like hair….. They look like filmentous hyphae or dog hookworms. Or even filmentous anctinobacteria. There is a lot more to it. Mine started in July. I still can't even catagorize them as ameabo, works, fungus, or large bacteria. Craziest thing I've ever seen

Look at pics of mites…..Mites can take a worm-like appearance and live under, on your skin……go to detmatogist and ask them to run your skin sample to determine type of parasite….

If you could send me some samples of these worms and also pictures, I would be willing to try to find out what they are. Would you be able to place them in some saline solution in a small bag then put the bag in a container like a small plastic screw top container and send it to me.
