Ok, I just finished the 21 days of Metronidazole; and it did nothing for me; my stool is the same; joint pain, anus itching, fatigue, etc have not gone away; all my symptoms remain. this was a very hard course and it made want to die; all this for nothing.
My advise for anybody: DO NOT take metronidazole for Blastocystis. It is not effective in knocking out the infection. I did this because the Dr. recommended it. But all for nothing. I should not have done it in the first place. So hard on the body. COmplete waste. I wonder why US doctors recommend this nonsense.
I can guarantee that my test results will be positive. I a few weeks I will do the Australian triple therapy. If that does not, I am doomed.
