Re: None of the meds/herbs are killing the critters!
I have tried triclabendazole before. Unfortunately as circumstances unfolded I probably did myself more harm than good. My bile duct was ruptured two days prior to taking it. I was in france and could only get one box. It stunned the flukes for 5 days.
It worked within 5 minutes. Large cysts dislodged from various parts of my body, left hip, liver cyst and such. I had a fluke wedged in my bile duct and unfortunately the flukes circulated within my abdominal cavity thru tracks in the subcutaneous and cutaneous fat. My blocked and ruptured duct kind of ruined it.
I felt my duct would heal and it eventually did. However, not having a surgery is not only reckless but looking back at it, very stupid. Now I have a resistant fluke that responds very little to the egaten.
I have taken probably 6 doses since then. The next dose was 1 month later. I didn't get nearly the response of the first one. 1000mg's w/ fatty meal. Then waited 12 hours and took another dose. Within 5 hours after that the flukes were already moving. I decided not to take the third dose I was planning. From there I researched what causes their resistance, and what researchers have studies to improve the efficacy of the drug.
P450 inhibitors and the like, fmo inhibitors. I tried those and it did help, it was just hard on the system. I took another dose last night and it didn't do too much. Even with taking the grapefruit and bromelain.
I am keeping them at bay with herbs but I feel having a small surgery to atleast decrease the population would help the medicine work better. Or, I could simply start taking double and maybe triple doses.
I would love to try bithionol. I think that is the only one I haven't tried. But, yeah. Sometype of intervention needs to happen and I'm hoping it's a small surgery, unless I come across something that just works well enough to kill outside of my intestinal tract. Maybe rotating different drugs and herbs. I got asperget L?? last night. I forgot what it's called. I tried it and it is pretty strong, but not enough to take them out.
