Is this the "miracle" that Dr. K claims?
I just don't have more $$$$ to keep feeding these parasites.
Past 2 years, I have treated with Parastroy, Kroeger Wormwood combo, and Dr. K protocol several times.....all unsuccessful!

Hi RZR, what is it that makes you sure that parasites are the problem?
What symptoms do you have?

I see one worm in the toilet daily, which means they are leaving my body....just not soon enough.

Hey RZR. I know that there is one person on this site that says that MP has helped them a lot. I have only heard of it when Dr. K. mentioned it once. I don't see anything else on it and I don't here about people's results. Dr. K/ says that it is 30 times stronger than the pharmaceuticals. I find that hard to believe; I have taken both.
I would like to see if anyone is having results with this.

I know someone on the board said they got rid of lung worms with it, but would love to hear from others.

I just ordered mimosa from Hopkinton Drug.
Does anyone have a reliable less-expensive source to get the powder from?

It got rid of my Lung worm and who knows what else?? I took it for 6 mo,also did papaya seeds and nebulized Iodine.
I felt better on it,no die off. But we r all so different to how we react to things.
I got mine from Hopkinton also. Never did find any,any cheaper.
I still have some,and was going to give it away,but my doc said to keep it,as may be needed down the line.

Healing in Santa Cruz. I hope I didn't already ask these questions.
Have you been treating Lyme Long? Also, have you done antibiotics for a while?
I didn't have a herx on it. I never took it long enough to see what the results were. One of the reasons I stopped was that I would get very constipated. Did you have that problem?
Where did you get the nebulized iodine?
Sorry about all of the questions.

No worries,Haley. No have not done ABX except for herbal ones. I love Byron White herbals,Buhner,Dr J etc.Rife and more alternatives. My Md muscle tests me and I also energy test.
7-8 yrs treating.Dxed at 23 yrs but may have had lyme and co long before that.
I am now doing The liver gallbladder miracle cleanse by Andreas Moritz and now having good bowel movements and positives,lifts between the crashes. This is a biggie for me as I had constant
ongoing herxes. KPU treatment has also helped.
My SSKI Iodine is a script from my doc.For some reason not to use other iodines like Lugals SP?I bought the nebulizer on line. Let me know if u want to know where.
I still have a ways to go but so grateful to finally have positive shifts.
For me I feel Mind,Body,Spirit,Emotions need to be worked on.

Good luck with it, RZR. Mimosa is one of the things I'm considering too.

Like Haley, it made me constipated. Only did it for a few days.
I think sometimes the parasitic stuff can do this, so watch out. Poor Randibear has horrible diverticulitis symptoms which she believes humaworm had something to do with.

The other thing that happened is - I left one of the pills in an opened pill box. The pill turned hard as a rock. I could not break it with a hammer. The ones that remain in the bottle are fine.
The MP does not expire until 2013.
I wonder if anyone would be willing to experiment and try to leave one pill out to see if that happens. I am thinking about sending the pill to the manufacturer just to ask if this is normal.

Hate to hear about the constipation issue.
That's always a problem for me with binders, so hope this doesn't happen with mimosa.

This is a super old thread but I'm pretty sure mimosa pudica is what is causing all my gastro issues. I stopped it on Thurs and already I'm feeling a bit better (though still terrible after meals).
Luckily my LLMD thinks diverticulitis instead of pancreas issues (guess my main pain is a bit lower than pancreas) and he seems to think it will resolve well.
Just in case anyone is searching for Mimosa pudica, I thought I'd add my piece here. I've been miserable for about the last 5 weeks on it.
It didn't start immediately though, so it took a while to figure out this might be the problem piece.

Thanks, Paleogirl. How much were you taking?
I have just started it in capsule form, but super slow ramping up, as after my second capsule (taken three days after capsule 1) i had a foul Herx.
I started again on half a capsule for a few doses and am now tolerating one capsule every other day.
Hope your issue resolves itself quickly.

Just a thought... The "herxes" and gastro issues may be a parasite die-off. If the herb is "hitting the target" - it can make you really ill. Die-offs are no fun - especially with parasites.

Yeah I don't think it's die off unless I have a really bad worm attached in a spot the size of a dime in my lower left quadrant....no other symptoms of die off (I've herxed plenty on other meds for lyme & co, and also for parasites). I can't remember what mimosa is supposed to hit, but I think it's not my main parasite problem.
I was taking the full dose (3 capsules 2x/day on empty stomach), and the manufacturer said I could do all six capsules at once if I wanted so I tried that for a couple of weeks too.
I hope it works for you!
