Re: A very enlightening article...
I do not think it is a conspiracy.
I think that the idea that something this simple had eluded the medical profession for so long is too painful. OMG how did I miss this!
That is how I felt after believing for 10 years that I had IBS, for which there is no cure.
It took me a year of going back and forth, before I honestly began to look and accept what I was seeing.
My undergrad degree was psychology so I knew of Delusional Parasitosis. Every time I would begin to think "parasite", I would snap myself out of it. I assumed that the people on Curezone, just were letting their imaginations run wild.
Many on here have posted thinking that only some of us cannot get rid of these things, especially pinworms.
Has anyone ever considered that even doctors have them?
I have a great capacity to ignore discomfort when I am working or interested. I did not even begin to feel the damn things until I became aware of what the slight pulls, an itch, here and there (very bad itching meant time to use a dose OTC anti-yeast cream). I thought it was my underwear, jeans too tight, whatever. I had never heard of anyone have worms, not even in childhood.
Another clue is that great numbers of people in the are now being diagnosed with IBS. It seems everyone has it! They have no idea what causes it. But doctors state that
parasite infections are rare.
But, oddly enough, IBS is very rare in Africa, almost non-existent.
Yet
parasites abound. Of course, everyone already recognizes that nearly every
parasite known to man is endemic in Africa.
I told my doctor that maybe all this IBS is undiagnosed parasites, and he was open enough to think maybe it was a possibility. It may take a while, but they become frustrated with diseases that come out of no where, like IBS, with no cure, then multiplying throughout the population for whatever reason.
There must be some doctor's child somewhere with pinworms that transfers to the doctor. And so many traveling to Africa for charitable purposes. I think it will come out in the open, all at once. Then there will be a push for cures and recognition that our digestive tracts are a collective mess, which will have to be cleaned so as not to be desirable by parasites.
The discovery brought me to my knees. I felt like I was in a horror movie. This will happen to all the people who do not believe anyone in the US has parasites. I pray for people to have the strength to face it. Then we will have a cure.
