I am the forum moderator for the Protozoa forum and I have received 'bad alerts' in my inbox concerning this thread - it is apparent that this thread is becoming too argumentative. The tone is getting abusive and should not be tolerated.
I will offer my opinion, I think there is a place for each modality that is suggested but in spite of shrimpy's passion I would have to agree that the original poster should get the study done as suggested and that meds are in order. This is not to say that other's opinions are necessarily wrong but this parasite is a b@tch.
Shrimpy: Please allow me to state my opinion, in that you should tone down your responses, you are welcome to post here which can be quite helpful to others and I appreciate that but you should tone it down a bit. Using personal attacks should not be part of your repertoire. Thank you for allowing me to express my opinion.
