I get so confused on that. It seems logical. Then I think what happens next. If I kill the nematodes does the fungus just attract more with it's pheromones . If I kill the fungus does the nematode population explode before i can kill the nematodes? What about the bacteria? If I kill that the nemotodes will starve to death? Fungus will too? Saranthora ( from mdr ) was considering that route in a post I just read. Anthrobotry's Oligospora I have read will go dormant if no food for years, millions ( some fungi )... then can wake up. Wymore said only thing works is antibiotic, anti-fungal, and anti-parasitic long term only thing he has seen work long term, last Dr. Amin and detox, worked for many ( detox I mean ). His cleans the lymph. That is intriguing since it is in the lymph and blood. The detox seems key to getting cured to me because it removes the fungus, awake or asleep I hope. I am researching AO and thinking about what to do for now. Have appt with doc in a month who says he will send samples to lab that can id the fungus, bacteria, and nematode by name. Maybe I will do all 4 at the same time or rhythmically? For now gathering info and hanging in there inspired by people like you, bythc, and all the others doing better.
