So, if anyone read my earlier post, it says that I tested positive for parasites and a bunch of other stuff.
Question for those of you who have treated for parasites--> How long did it take to start feeling improvement in symptoms??
Since I am sure my llmd will prob start treating me when I see him next week, I would like to start becoming somewhat informed of what to expect.
Thank you so much for your time.

I started feeling better very quickly....almost right away. And within a few short weeks, I noticed a HUGE improvement in my symtpoms.... especially with the tingling, buzzing, vibrations, etc.
Good luck with your treatment!

Immediately better after parasite meds. However, I think pill form (prescriptions, compounded and/or pill form herb preparations) and just basic marketing over the years brainwashed me into thinking they were better (not). Yes, they helped, but I feel so much better on salt/c (took about a month or so). It works for me.
The prescription parasite meds are sort of like abx in that they knock the parasite load back, but the salt C is something I can handle every day.

Catgirl- how much salt c? I've been on at least 3g and at times up to 6g a day for this past month.

I take one gram one day (sensitive), then DE the next day (alternate days). I remember Gael saying it took her six months before she saw results. Everyone is different. Slow and steady wins the race.

CD57: yes, I had been on heavy duty abx rotations for Lyme, Babs, Bart, Ehrlichia and Anaplasma for the past year.
Finally, I was on Septra, Zithromax, Bicillin LA shots and 50 other different meds/supps per day. I was getting sicker and sicker.
My thinking is, I had killed off whatever bacteria that needed to be killed off. The rest of the symptoms are now from: parasites, heavy metals, mold, viruses.
In my case I had bacterial infections all along, along with parasites, etc, etc. I had the whole Babushka. (search Gigi's post about the Babushka principle of treatment)
I am mindful that the bacterial infections can come back...but hopefully, once I get the parasites, heavy metals and viruses under control, my immune system will be strong enough to take care of the rest of the bugs.
