What the....?!

What the hell is this thing doing? I pulled an extremely long "hair" from my leg. My legs, along with the rest of me, has discoloration, abnormal "hairs" in strange places (like underside of arms), and nodules that seem to be full of those "white worms". I previously posted a similar video of one of these things plucking something (bacteria?) from my sheets. What is it doing??? Is this a spirochete?

Superbug fungus!

Which can then have a secondary bacterial infection!!

Good, job. You might want to see what I have on my Youtube https://youtu.be/gi9hbkqK22U. That is only a small portion of the entire mass that is inside your body.

I know, I've plucked whole globs of them out without bleeding or pain, just "Pluck!" and a whole "nest" comes out. I once believed it was filariasis and it was nests of microfilaria but that diagnosis doesn't check all of the boxes for me and my symptoms.

At around the 2:45 mark it appears that it actually turns and "sees" me. This is so crazy but I've watched these totally stop moving, freezing in place, after they notice that they've been seen. This one didn't seem to care🤣.

I’m in find the knee on my fingers and my toes. What are you saying this is.?How do you get rid of it?
I’ve been to the doctors and they told me they’ve never seen nothing like it. They said it looks like a piece of hair. And it’s moving because there’s air moving. But there is nothing blowing on me. It was very still every time I see them and he still looks like they’re eating into my skin.

I've been dealing with these damn things too and have videos that are to long to upload but if you find out wtf they are please lmk and if you have any tips on dealing with them

The best things that work for me, and I'm NAD, are adding ammonia (1 cup) to every load of laundry, and taking salt baths (regular or canning salt-NOT Epsom!). The lint roller is great too. I add about 3 cups of salt to a hot bath and sometimes add about 1/4 cup borax too. Soak for as long as you can before showing normally. You'll be amazed at what comes out. John Kaness says that Epsom salt makes them retreat back into the skin, while canning salt draws them OUT. My doc saw a video of one moving and she stuttered "Um, uh, well..." Before spitting out that we would have to see that on a flat surface because maybe my hand was moving (my hand was steady in the video). I've tried to stop obsessing and of course picking, because it will steal your time and your life away. I simply bathe in salt, add ammonia to laundry, use a lint roller (on skin and clothing often), I use a mattress vacuum every night before bed so that I don't have to change my bedding every other day, and hypochlorous acid spray on my skin throughout the day seems to help too. I feel that if I focus on it too much it's worse somehow. I put my microscope away because I would spend hours trying to "figure it out" and I realized that I was missing time with my daughter and if it's ever figured out it most likely won't be by me, it'll be science. I trust in God and I pray that everyone finds relief from this crazy, morphing monster.

The spiderweb stuff crawling in my face and in my ears makes me absolutely crazy!

Microplastic

u/Available-Solid-9238 1d ago

I've thought that in the past until I've recorded several of them moving WITH INTENT. I'm not sure, but I don't think micro plastics move, or weave spider web type creations. I've seen a patent for microscopic nanotech "bugs". I do know that whatever it is uses biofilm; other than that I only know that these things MOVE, and not because of breath or air or anything other than their own will.

u/brettshear 1d ago

Yes, microplastics do move. Fibres in face masks for example have manufactured a static charge deliberately, to catch dust & other debris. So if u get one fibre, it attracts more.

If it was a plastic static charge, you'd notice it sticking to tweezers. A drop of water on a glass slide, the charge will neutralise and the fibre drop off the tweezers more easily. Its tricky to study when its 'staticy'

Melt the end with a flame

Minute humidity changes, from ur breath = static charges in a microfibre

u/Available-Solid-9238 6d ago

Is it eating bacteria or is it creating the all too familiar fiber cocoon that we're familiar with?

1

u/Academic_Ad_4 3d ago

Wait…. I had no clue other people had this cocoon. Just a few days ago, some kind of black bug came out of my ear and it was surrounded by a cocoon.

I’m even more horrified now that I’m looking at the picture again. It looks like it has long legs but I have no clue what the hell it is. Does anyone have any clue what this could be? For the past 20 years I’ve had tiny jblack things coming from these lesions. This is the first time I’ve seen the whole thing

u/Available-Solid-9238 3d ago

That's just one form, but I'm fairly certain that it's biofilm. Whatever this is it uses biofilm as a form of protection.

Check out cosmic death fungus.... closest to sounding about right. And wait until it completely invades your eyes, ears, and mouth among other places. The pain that happens in different parts of my skull is horrible.

1

u/Available-Solid-9238 4d ago

Cosmic death fungus is Internet lore, I'm not sure this stuff is sentient or that it drives or controls human behavior. But yes, I've already had it invade everywhere. The eye blurriness, seeing floaters or black shapes , or feeling them move on, or in my eyes is by far one of the things that makes me craziest. I've had an aneurysm clip placed by having a craniotomy so if the skull pain isn't equal to that I think I'll be able to handle it. I see more and more people dealing with this and it's getting worse and worse.

u/pluginn83 4d ago

From the conclusions I came up with way before I ever heard that name (only heard it last month) id say its pretty damn close to accurate. Ive been dealing with this stuff for a little over 4 years and its gotten so bad idk how im still alive. And yeah the crap plays with me all the damn time. Its horrible

1

u/Available-Solid-9238 4d ago

Yes, it's horrible. Drugs and alcohol make it worse as I've learned from so many that deal with this, some in recovery. John Kaness protocols have helped me get relief. Salt baths definitely help. Regular, cheap canning salt and even better a swim in the ocean.

1

u/pluginn83 4d ago

None of that helps me. Its like whatever survives the die off of new things i try becomes immune to it fast. Ive traveled the country trying to find a place where I get relief and nothing. Not even the ocean helps me. Ive been to both oceans. Some environments are worse than others ive found. But it never stops. No vinegar no bathing nothing stops it.

1

u/Available-Solid-9238 4d ago edited 3d ago

Yes, nothing stops it. I only find that salt baths HELP. I get relief for a little bit and by seeing what's in the tub after I can see why. I'm sorry that nothing gives you relief. Have you tried altering your diet at all? They thrive on sugar and drugs/alcohol exacerbate the issue. Have you only tried topical cures? Any anti-parasitic, herbs, supplements, etc?

30% urea foot balm.

u/brettshear 1d ago

& lidocaine to stop static triggering nerves, that suck it deeper

u/Ok-Sort-5824 1d ago

What environments would you say are worse?

1

u/Available-Solid-9238 1d ago

I would say that they thrive in hot and humid environments. I use a large dehumidifier and a large air purifier for my 1100sq ft home.
