Re: Numb Spot Above Left Kidney, Fear of Death
Last month, I had the same thing happen to me! The pain was unbearable and mine lasted for hours too -- esophagus/stomach region. After everything stopped, it took about 24 hrs to recover from that. It really wiped me out. Last week I could feel that I was going to be attacked again, and I started dumping whatever I could find down my throat and that seemed to stop whatever it was going to do.
I feel that I have the majority of
Ascaris in the colon; there's a lot of thumping around. I'm seriously considering doing the milk thing. Ramp up my food intake. Fast for 1-2 days or only eat food that I dislike. Kinda hard to do, since I like all types of foods :). Warm up a couple gallons of milk, dump it in the toilet and patiently wait. This shouldn't take more than an hour to get rid of some of the larger ones. More than anything, this is a mental affair and a war strategy. I just need to be brave about it -- I know that some ladies here don't mind looking at the critters, but I didn't like them (especially the big ones) when I was a little kid playing outside with my brothers.
I really want to get rid of these things as much as possible, and this idea is looking better to me the more I think about it. Besides, I want to prove some docs wrong and give them a present! ;)
BTW, you mentioned above about a smell. Have you ever considered that you might have a tape?
