SCATTERED & SYSTEMIC ROUNDWORMS: Symptoms & Treatment
Hi 130328 ~~
Your symptoms of twitching muscles & movement in various parts of your body might be a case of scattered or disseminated Ascaris Lumbricoides (common roundworm).
Roundworms are common around the world. Infection begins with ingestion of eggs present in contaminated soil or on fruits & vegetables grown in infected soil.
Infected individuals commonly have abdominal pains, sinus/lung/eye infections, blood sugar imbalance, weight changes, & fatigue.
Symptoms sometimes include increased activity or movement of migrating worms in various parts of the body & weight gain (up to 7-8 lbs) around the time of the full moon.
Other symptoms:
~ Grinding of teeth at night & snoring
~ Intestinal gas or other intestinal disturbances
~ Allergies
~ Asthma
~ Anemia
~ Restlessness
~ Coughing up worms
~ Infestation of nasal & facial sinuses
~ Chronic tiredness
Treatment is Albendazole, 400mg tabs twice daily, 14 days on, 7 days off to rest the liver, & repeated for 1 or more cycles, as needed.
Since you live in Australia & have difficulty obtaining Albendazole, suggest you purchase the oral liquid suspension (Valbazen) locally. Details are covered in the above protocol.
