It also presupposes that you are a worm. It's a (logically) absurd and (practically) pointless question. How could anyone/anything possibly know what it's like to be a worm without actually having the experience of being one? Answer: They couldn't/can't.
The question also has no relevance to consciousness. We know what it's like to be conscious humans because we are conscious humans and we do have human experiences.
