Re: Help Needed: Rope Worm Questionnaire - An Unofficial Survey

Hi everyone!

I'm a clinician, not a sufferer! We had just seen a female/40, known cardiac patient, travelled to NZ to have a valvular replacement. She came in presenting with nausea, and in the ward, she vomited grossly huge 9 things, which look just like what is described here! After intense search on the net, I finally came across this and I was shocked! We only learn about the traditional worms, but not this. I asked 2 parasitologist, they had never seen this in their lives!
I am just amazed with how many of you, out there who are suffering! Which, brings the question, why medical specialists have never identified or researched apart from the 2 doctors, whose papers I had read!

I had gone through all your posts and posts on "rope worms website" and I am just amazed with how much suffering that is out there!

Hope someday soon, there will be answers to all your questions! On that note, I have referred some of the materials, which I have found to some parasitology researchers! It would take a long time!

So sorry to hear about all your stories! Tweet
