Well, sorry you think it is angry rant, but that does not disprove anything; and really glad you have had such terrific luck with doctors; I am truly happy for you and your wonderful doctors; I wish I had met such understanding doctors; but I have met so many other patients here and elsewhere who have not had such exceptional luck as you have with your doctors; so good for you I guess; Because of their arrogance and ignorance, patients suffer. Some cannot even get disability because they refuse to recognize illnesses as illnesses?

I wonder what you say to so many patients here who have been dismissed and refused to offer help by doctors, patients who suffer because of doctors' refusal consider facts, overlooking evidence; so many of doctors do not read what they are supposed to read? Are you denying that; When for example, there is so much evidence suggesting that Metronidazole does not work against Blastocystis, and yet they continue to prescribe it, making people even more ill, are doctors being responsible? WOuld like to cut them slack too?


Have you read "badgugs.com," for example, where you can read how so many patients have suffered uncessarily for so many years because doctors simply refused to consider the facts; are these patients simply "ranting" as well when they complain about their illnesses? Whatelse are you denying what I said?

Are you a doctor yourself? So you were even "angry" at doctors, but you did not "rant"; That makes it better? My post at least try to get and help people who supposedly have so called "Cronh's disease" to think that they may have something else. Instead of just saying some post is rant.

By the way, any one who visits (can afford to visit) a doctor (particularly in the US), when one is ill, is already taking responsibility?

"Celiac Disease"

most MD would possibly agree with your doctor.

But are you 100% sure you not are tricking yourself?

The immune system has developed over tens of thousand of years, do you truly truly think it is so "stupid" it attack own tissue without a good reason????
Not a crazy rant from me, but what several doctors have suggested, like Gabe Mirkin M.D. .


yes if child is born with genetic error this is possible, but can genetic truly later in life make suddenly make immune cells attack healthy tissue for no reason? You truly believe human body is that idiotic????

Yes most MD agree there is such things as a autoimmune diseases, as cause for many chronic diseases.

But there are also MDs that think this is nonsense in most cases. They think reason is person instead have an infection, or overgrow of normal flora (due to inflammation from other causes, like non-optimal diet for years) ... They claim immune system try to attack the pathogens (or over grow of normal flora, or damaged gastro lining so normal flora can enter rest of your body), and this also cause damage in your tissue, because the immune system alone not can clear the "infection". The immune system try to keep it in control, but the right Antibiotics and or diet changes normally necessary.

These doctors have treated lots and lots of patients quite successfully with various Antibiotics and also diet changes have cured many people with such symptoms, how can diet fix genetic autoimmune diseases. How can Antibiotics cure so many automimmune disease?

Not meant as critics, my point is there is a different view here among some doctors. And good Science is not decided by democratic volte, that most doctors often use diagnoses such as chronic fatigue syndrome, IBS, firbo myalgia, chrons, celiac disease, sjogrens syndrome and you name it do not mean all trained scientist buy into this.

This is in my view mostly fancy words to describe symptoms.

Celiac disease they seem to know a little more, they know it is likely immune system causing extra trouble. But are you fully sure your doctor is right that it is a automimmune disease?

Yes most patients happy to have a name and simple explanation of their symptoms? But are you sure this is the case?

I suggest you start reading Gabe Mirkin M.D. as a short introduction

He think most autoimmune people diagnosed with autoimmune diseases are nonsense..

And I agree, I am no MD. Do your own study, my point not all MD`s agree that the immune system in so many people can be defect and attack own tissue for no good reason.

I am not a MD, but several doctos suggested autoimmune disease for me to back in 1998 to 2000....of course it was just a hard to detect infection, and I got cured...I personally do not listen to doctors suggesting automimmune disease...

yes if you are born with it may be, why would your genetic suddenly change late r on and make the immune cells attack own tissue...yes most MD seems to think this can happen I guess. Do this mean they are right, and that the few MDs that say this is nonsense is wrong..? choose yourself if you want to investigate further or not.

Did medical doctors test you for Blastocustis just as an example, did you know that even 3 samples can give false negative? Did you extensively test for other pathogens. Have you studied nutrition, and know for sure what is good for you what can harm your gut? making it wounrable for infections...Are you 100% sure your doctor is right and that your immune system is attacking healthy tissue for no good reason?????

If not fully sure, why not investigate it more?

Hi im Australian and I went on a cruise 5 months ago, started getting extreme fatigue, chills, what felt like gallbladder attacks, acute appendicitis symptoms. went to 9 different doctors - turns out I some how caught a parasite which is most commonly foun in MEXICO.? gave me Antibiotics and I was running and pain free for 4 days, on the 5th I developed chrons disease symptoms and right now I still have a constant tear feeling where my appendix is. Nowone will touch it. I feel like a ticking time bomb but I know I still have the parasite. Im being retested. I have tried EVERY home remedy for parasites and nothing works with this one. really lost on what to do now..
