The Truth is Stranger than Fiction

my wife has also been liver flushing.  she has been juice fasting for 20 days or so and is on the same de-worming program as I.  we are both infested with the same kinds of worms, though it seems i have a greater infestation, likely due to my weakened body.    besides a few straggling stones she didn't have a productive flush until number 10 (yet she kept trying).  last night she did flush # 12.  

she followed it with 2 coffee enemas today.  she got out the most stones of any flush she has done thus far.  but this evening, she also expelled a worm carcass with a stone clearly imbedded in it.  its the same kind of worm that i expelled also with stones.

with this one it was clear that the stone was taking the place of the body of the worm.  so what does that mean?:

1.  we have worms that feed in the liver

2.  the worm carcasses are actually older than they first appeared.  they are somehow able to keep form for awhile in the liver while the stone is formed.  

OR

3.  the liver stones are created very rapidly. in this case, these worms were dead at most a week  (since our last de-wormer rotation) and the liver went right to work creating the stones.  

but it does seem like the stone is created after the death of the worm and not something the worm ate.

unless:  the stones are the last meal of the worm.  a big gulp of bile, a quick death, and the bile bonds with the juices of the worm guts and forms a stone inside it.  

this might also explain why i have so many stones.  a direct proportion to the number of worms i have.  they keep going into my liver, dying, becoming stones, and getting flushed out, only to be replaced by the next worms in line.

again, these are not liver flukes.  i have passed others of this same species up to 2 feet long.  they are not ascaris either.

i think the reasons we both got these out at the same flush are:

1. we're both on a juice fast, which makes the purge action of the liver flush stronger, and

2. we took the right deworming herbs to kill what's in our livers.

good for us.

this is all definitely the most f-ed up stage in my life thus far.  so strange to be so occupied with such a sci-fi health drama.  i definitely thought i would be busy with other things at this stage in my life.
