SD,
I just want to tell you I know exactly what you are going through because the same thing happened to me. The excitement over finding the parasites in my stool, the empowerment of bringing the dang thing into my doctor's office to show him the actual proof, the lack of knowledge as to how to handle such evidence and what to do with it, the stool test ordering, and then a week later a "negative" result on parasite testing. It was INFURIATING for me.

I have come to realize that I have been looking for validation from the medical community. I realize now that I must validate and nurture and BELIEVE myself.

At the same time, however, I still believe in the value of educating our doctors. They have a very narrow-minded scope of things, and they seek evidence to support their already existing paradigms. Thus, I have written a letter to my doctor, I have photo-copied articles and pages of books on the subject that related to my symptoms and experience, and I even printed out some of the more sincere postings from this forum. I sent this package to my doctor, and I am trying to let go of the outcome! All I can do is plant the seed...and then let it go...

Also, I wanted to let you know about two different labs that I was referred to by other people on this forum as well as in the books on parasites that I have read. One lab is Great Smokies Diagnostic Lab, and the other is Diagnos-techs. You can do a google search for these websites. People who had their stool test come out negative with their regular doctors sent stool to these labs, and these labs found parasites (sometimes more than one type) because they are so much more comprehensive than most labs.

The only little problem is that your doctor must order these tests for you...you can't order them yourself. So in the letter I wrote to my doctor, I included a request that she order me a test from these more comprehensive labs.

I hope that helps.

I totally feel your pain! Good luck, keep your chin up, and continue to trust and nourish yourself.

Blessings,
Jackie

Do you ever wonder why a doctors license says " license to practice"? LOL

My theory is that doctors have the equipment to do a fairly good diagnosis of some things, and they are ok for setting broken bones, but that's about all I trust them for (but I still keep a close eye on them and MY medical records).

I used to be in the medical field and I know what goes on... so I would never trust one for treatment unless I double check EVERYTHING they say.

Hubby has great faith in doctors and trusts them totally. So far I've discovered a doctor giving hubby the wrong meds 6 times! If I wouldn't have caught the mistakes, hubby would be 6' under right now (and the death certificate would say "natural causes").

Nope, nope, nope, I don't trust doctors at all.

I had a similar frustrating experience. After Hulda Clark 's parasite cleanse and 3 Liver Flushes I had the shock of my life. I passed about 20 critters, rubbery, mostly 3/4 inch long, and many smaller ones. I looked at them with a magnifying glass (scary!), saw little reddish suckers on them, so I KNOW they were not anything I swallowed or intestinal mucus. They looked like liver flukes, but I wanted some "expert advise" Hah, I got it all right. Test results: Negative! Trying to explain to my doctor's nurse how I was able to produce those "things" and could not reproduce them with the next bowel movement(they wanted to send in another sample) was quite unnerving too.
And then I made the big mistake of mentioning all the stones that I had passed with the flushes.... I got the "hardened olive oil" theory.
All I know is that I am on my own with this. My energy level has tremendously increased, I must be doing something right!
I just want to say to those of you who are doubting that we are passing actual parasites. I was a doubter, too, until I saw the evidence! I am ever so glad that my doubts did not stop me from pursuing the program!
