Hi there,
I have had chronic fatigue for 4 years, last summer I was diagnosed with blasto hominis, i have just finished a course of tinidazole, followed by 10 days on paromomycin and doxycycline. I'm really hoping it worked because it made me feel terrible. By the last days i couldnt walk because my muscles were aching so much. While taking the medicines I was taking a tablespoon of coco powder every day blended with some avocado's and today i read that cocoa is a nono for blasto which worries me. People who took meds for blasto... did you follow a specific diet? and if so what were you told you could and could not eat?

also how soon after taking the meds should you wait to be retested?

If this fails does any one know what the most current triple therapy is? and has anyone on this forum seen significant success with it?

One more question. Kefir - is milk kefir okay to take after finishing the meds? i'm guessing after so many Antibiotics my probiotics are a bit screwed so I would probably do good on it im guessing?

I have also been told blasto is NON pathogenic and that i should see a dr in New York who finds parasites that usually are undetectable put living in harmony with blasto hominis so i am currently saving for that too. I'm just hoping i can put this nightmare behind me.

(I need to also note that people shouldn't read this post and follow the same treatment as me, it is vital you get a proper diagnosis before self treating yourself or it can be dangerous)

Any answers would be great

Thanks!

Ren
