Oh Tek... Really feel for you... Feeling exactly the same as you discribed... like a Vice wrapped around my face... I am seeing ID Docs on Wednesday and (sorry) from what you discried I just feel like there is absolutly no point in my seeing them. I did once , just like you pull somthing from my toilet, which looked exactly like an Ascaris and just like you it was called vegtable matter. I went thru everything I had eaten and NOTHING is worm shaped with ridges all down it. I am so friggin sick of this thing traversing around exactly whee it likes and with noone to beleive me. This week had a burning sensation just below my collar bone and mins later I get green bruising and some kind of tiny lump. Saw my reg doc this week who said it was bone, however I dont think she felt properly for it. My glands are al up this week and all the ones either sides of my nether regions too. She put it down to infection. I could go on and on about all the life style changes I have made... but I am very much asking the point of being alive atm. Noone beleives me and its ruining my life, But (((((((HUGS)))))) to you darling and stay strong xxx
