Oh, a better disease to investigate is Morgellons Disease - People who have it say it's like these weird multi-colored fibers with hooks that grow through and underneath the skin, giving intense pain to the victim. It's often said these people can feel things crawling under their skin.
Doctors, last I read, almost act like it's fake and the people with the disorder are suffering from some psychotic episodes...

It's probably some sort of parasite. The best way to determine if it is would be to discern if these people ate any of the same foods or visited the same foreign region recently.
The information in the article is conflicted though: if it's inorganic, how can it be the product of a biological process and not be man-made? In some cases they describe conflicted symptoms, too - open sores versus thick inorganic objects protruding from the flesh.
The fact they're canvassing for cases suggests there will be a lot of false diagnoses, and probably people who are legitimate hypochondriacs/schizos getting confused with legitimate cases of whatever this actually is.
