A newbie navigating the magical world of parasites

Hi,
I'm new to this forum and have recently been unfortunately introduced to the strange world of parasites. After getting my child a puppy we got roundworms from it. To my surprise while clearing up the roundworm I noticed I had many other parasitic life forms. Flukes, worms and many other goodies... I had probably had them for years. So here I am signing in after lurking on this forum for months! Thanks to all of you for sharing your experiences and knowledge. It has been helpful to not feel so alone on this journey.

So, today I'm researching a small black worm that I expelled but I believe it was killed only after taking Thyme essential oil. When I take the Oregano and Clove essential oil (in veggie capsule I make myself) I have not seen these. They look hideous but I digress....

I'll post a lovely worm photo soon.
