A client is admitted to the psychiatric unit complaining of feeling invisible parasites biting her skin. She complains of overwhelming fatigue and body aches.
 
  She suffers from hair loss, skin lesions, rashes, and blue or red fibers that sprout from her lesions. She sees tiny black specks, like coffee grounds, on her arms. After expressing how frightening it must be to feel this way, what assessment question should the nurse ask next? A) Can you show me the lesions and black specks?
  B) Are these feelings causing you to want to hurt yourself in anyway?
  C) What did your doctor tell you about these complaints?
  D) When did you start noticing these symptoms?
