Re: Parasite problem help?
Several of the symptoms you describe are classic for hypothyroidism, the most common health problem in the USA. See stopthethyroidmadness.com, Dr. Michael Lam's site, & get tested. Tell the docotor the symptoms you have of hypothyroidism, fatigue, depression, dry skin, etc. as blood tests alone are not always valid. If he or she only goes by blood tests, then consider finding someone who will actually listen to you and what is happening to your body. Doctors can actually impede your path to health if they just go by blood tests & want you quick in-quick out.
As Dr. Lam says, where there is hypothyroidism there is likely to be a problem with the adrenals (and maybe progesterone & estrogen) & urine testing, not blood testing, is what reveals that. If the doc won't urine test you, find another one. That's what I had to do.
More info on all that is included if you follow the links below.
In addition you are extremely likely to have parasites. You can find an informal way to check for at least one kind, tapeworms, also by following the links below.
It will not be fast and easy for you to get well. You may have to ignore some doctors' advice & dismissal of your problems, & certainly have to be your own advocate. But if you research & persist you may see things turn around greatly.

Re the topic of enemas sometimes mentioned in the link above, I am adding a personal feeling of caution about
colonics - professionally done high
colonic enemas. I have seen them really depleting people's energy, though some really like them. They do flush out a lot of good bacteria & probiotics along with the junk.
There is really no data that I know of to show that good bacteria can be replaced by over the counter supplements, or even things like acidophilus yogurt, kefir etc., after such a highly invasive wash of the intestines. (You can tell if your yogurt or kefir has live probiotics by adding a heaping tbsp. to regular milk, then letting it sit for 8 -16 hours. If it’s the real stuff the milk will thicken and give you more yogurt or kefir.) Maybe so, maybe no, but there is new info coming out that low probiotics in the gut can cause things like
Depression (see Dr. Mercola & Dr. Marsha Campbell’s Youtube vid for example) and even possibly things like autism if the mother's probiotics are too low and she doesn't pass enough onto her baby in the birth canal or through her milk.
There are other ways to clean out the intestines, for example some like Blessed Herbs, some like
Oxypowder . Simply adding more roughage & drinking more water can be effective.
I'm no expert on any of that, just presenting what I worry may be a potential hazard. Mho.
