Less than a week ago my whole word changed. I began experiencing glass splinters coming out of my hands along with greyish fibers and what I call debris. I thought at first it was somehow fiberglass and stuff I got in my body from scrubbing the carpeting in my home with towels, not using a brush or gloves. I thought maybe the pushing motion forced the debris into my hands, I even looked underneath the carpet at the wood. I was trying to rationalize what I was experiencing. A day went by and I discussed with a friend what was going on and he told me that it wasn't possible in the quantity and variety of stuff coming out of me. I wouldn't believe him, until into day two it progressed to my arms, body, face, head and feet. Everything was painful! I saw blue grey bruises turn into specks before my eyes and thought they must be flecks of paint being expelled. Crystals were appearing out of bumps, sand fell off my skin when I brushed my arms and body,my bed and sofa ware covered in tiny prickly glass shards. I thought I was going to die and was losing my mind. We researched causes looking for a medical explanation. Came up with calcification. Leisions were appearing and I was covered in tiny cuts and couldn't hardly touch anything for the pain. Day three I was considering going to the ER but still ratinalized it was just from the crap under my carpet. I was having trouble breathing and my head was stuffy, face puffy, and eyes felt pressure. I went to work. I work with food and wear a coat and gloves so could hide the cuts, leisions, and splinters. It was exruciatinly painful. On a bathroom break, I looked at my hands and feet. On my hands, stiff wire like hairs emerged and disappeared in a weird snakelike formation. Plastic stuff jutted through and in my toes like zipties under the skin. I freaked. That night my joints filled with crunching stuff. I lanced my elbow open and thick blood with fiber clumps, grey gravel, and clear beads came out in my blood. I saw bubbles. There were beads in my pea and sand in my feces. The next day embarrassed i saw a doc at a walk in clinic but couldn't explain and settled on the carpet excuse. Antibiotics and antihistamines are what I got. The antibiotics helped a little. I was having more pain than itching. F-that, i did more research and my friend said please don't say you have morgellons, its a made up disease. I went to the ER next morning, yesterday. Told them my symptoms. Here i will add a detail i didn't before. I had drugs in my system, but this IS NOT DRUGS and i am not crazy! I don't want you to discredit me but will be honest. It was enough for the doctors to scoff at me. They didn't even put me in a gown or inspect me. I asked them to check my blood and they told me I was normal and it was drugs coming out of me. BS! Even my mother who was there believes me and felt the splinters. She wants me to go to another doctor but I'm afraid of what they will say. I know what I am going through but have no idea how to proceed. I've just been reading my ass off and cleaning out because this disturbs the crap out of me. Today I took a pic of the fiber in the crook of my arm. I read that toulene is used to make some drugs and might have been a trigger for some aspect of morgellons? I'm trying to understand! Thank you for any help!

Thank you for any help! My onset was like this too, 45 symptoms came over me in a week, it's taken over 4 years to get that symptom count down to 5. Drug use is a significant risk factor, but not a requisite, for M. Do you mind sharing what your drug of choice is and whether use coincided with onset?
