Since this isn't an injury or death it would not fit in the Bizarre Death And Injury Thread, but it is very bizarre and I thought at least Wino might be interested in it. Doctors can't seem to figure out what is wrong with this poor woman. The hair follicles all over her body grow black fingernails. She is the only person known with this condition. Her health has deteriorated greatly. Hopefully, they will be able to find a diagnosis and a cure.

YIKES!!! That would be some scary stuff. I might be freaked out for awhile by that. I hope they can help her.

I bet House could fix her. It's Lupus.

It said she had been on large amounts of steroids for something. Maybe that made her hair follicles super produce.

Genetic error, maybe? Hair and fingernails are the same material.

Nope.... Psarcoidosis. I just have to break into her house to prove it.
