Re: Mystery illness - diagnosis/opinion needed pls

Hi Js.mom.
I don't think you could know how very grateful I am that you posted that link which introduced my daughter and I to Strongyloides stercoralis. I have been amazed at the similarity of what my daughter has been experiencing and with the information I'm finding about this horrid parasite.

I am going to ask our doctor to test my daughter for strongyloides stercoralis using the skin test antigen and blood tests, stool tests and anything else he can recommend to see if this is the parasite that has been causing us so much trouble.

I will let you know how we get on, but in the meantime, do you know if the Humaworm treatment will help kill this parasite? I read in two medical journals that people infected with Strongyloides stercoralis will be considered infected for LIFE, even after treatment with drugs that appears to leave the patient asymptomatic!

Thank you so much for you help.
