One breast cooked 3 days ago refrigerated for lunch. When inspected had live and dead worms. Bought family pack of boneless breasts. Live alone. Are chicken 4,3,2 and just a bite when told small chickens color string worms. Have been being treated for sinus, ear infections then last 2 weeks bronchitis. On another dose of antibiotics and steroids since 3 days ago as symptoms not gone after 2 weeks and I was also nauseous so went back to doctor. Respiratory worse given inhaler. As not on antibiotics since sinus infection started over a month ago as worse given antibiotic. Thought bases and stomach pain just result of ongoing issues...Then told have digested these worms.
