A good friend gave me a month of humaworm saying it might help me feel better.

Bless her heart. I thanked her but didnt say I'm afraid of it.

Got to be a.gentle parasite cleanser. Wish there was just oneagic pill to make it all go away.

Curious tho. How did you do on parasite treatment?

And my gastro said there was no such things as parasites cause they would show up on my colonscopy. Uh huh...

I just looked at him like a cow looking at a new gate

Didn't you try that once and it put you over the edge?

GI doctors are SO CLUELESS. Mine told me the same thing about candida/yeast.

Randy- you crack me up! "I just looked at him..." LOL! I've done that too- sometimes the things that come out of these people's mouths are so shockingly stupid all you can do is stare dumbfounded.

Seriously though, your doc is either bald faced lying or ignorant or both... My NP that dropped me told me that I didn't have them either- and yet, I see them daily, have all the symptoms, and have had dramatic weight changes... [Mad]

Most people have parasites though. They are not hard to catch and very hard to get rid of- it's impossible in the environment we live in that most of us are not dealing with them. In the course of human history, when people started to settle, infections started to set in- parasites especially began to run rampant. That's civilization for ya.

On humaworm...I'd be careful. I have only been able to tolerate 1/4 a pill at a time without GI problems. If you do decide to try it, you might try a tiny bit daily to see how you react.

One really gentle food that does have anti-candida/anti-parasitic properties is coconut oil. That might be a way for you to start working on some of the gut infection without upsetting your gut worse- and you can use it a few ways- Oil pulling, topically, ingesting it, even putting in an enema...I buy a bit tub from Amazon every few weeks because they do free shipping.

Uggh. Hate GI issues. Mine don't sound near as bad as yours though- so I can't imagine. Just keep trying new things and ideas and you will find the thing that is finally going to help you!! [group hug]

gee, that expression has been around here for years. comes from some of the cattle farmers i bet.

and i have seen a cow stand and stare at a gate going wth???

cows will not walk over a cattle guard. you know those metal tubular sections put down across streams, and also put down to stop cattle from crossing into other areas.

yeah, when i say that you'll know somebody is standing there looking like huh???

glad i can keep ya'll laughing.

somebody on here told me once they were reading a post of mine and i guess i let loose with one of my favorite little sayings and they sprayed coke or something all over their screen, they were laughing so hard.

jus being me.....

Nothing a Texan says surprises me. Randi is actually one of those "I'm not a Texan, but I got here as fast as I could!"

Thanks for the visual memory of playing on my aunt's cattle guard when I was a kid!

I'm jus glad somebody on here actually knows what it is.

And it has a purpose other than decorating a yankee's truck that sits in a driveway!!!!

When I mentioned something bout a cattle guard around his daughter, I swear she said "well I just dont understand why somebody would hire a.guard to watch over some dumb ole cows."

I tbought "uh huh...betcha those "cattle" are smarter than you are blondie."

Must have been one of my witch moments......
