HI again,
I have been on meds for about a year and a bit..
I kind of wish i had started sooner, before they went all disseminated..:(..
Yes i am going also to try to see a infectious disease specialist..but first i have to get a doctor to send me there...but also not sure what to say ..as its hard for them to not think youare crazy..
I think the meds did help..but i think also once you try meds, you almost have to keep on it cycling ..for a long time..to get rid of these..unfortunately..
I am doing that..but not sure of my progress,
it's also expensive..and hard on your body..
But i can tell the parasitic load lessens after i take the meds..and i do see them come out in the stools..
So i know it has helped..
I just wish there was a doctor here who could help ..and give direction/observe everythign..it is all rather scary handling this on your own...:(
Actually, I dont know if this will help..
But one thing i have tried recently..is eating less..kind of like fasting..eating less sugar/carbs that they feed on..(and eating lots of anti-parasitic stuff..) like coconut oil, pumpkin seeds..garlic..oregano oil..
to try and lessen the load ..But it is very hard to keep up!
BUt at this point i am desperate..!
Yes ,I miss being healhty so much ...its been so long for me too..Having this has disrupted everythign ... Its always in my mind too..!
Feels like you always have to be worry now..its really hard..
It s good to rule out mould /fungus first..and if it could be other things..
but if you have seen them in your stool, ..then maybe* you can try meds, and see how they work for you..but yes think it out first..:)! as we are all just trying to do our best to get better.. My best to you also..! :)
p.s. Thanks for the link.. :) i think i will try it out..also i am looking up somehting called the "ELISA test"? Have you heard of it? Its supposed to help with diagnosis..?
