For those of you who have gotten better with parasite treatment, did you stop going after the spirochetes and co's and just focus on parasites?

Yes. It probably helped me the most out of everything I did. Everyone is different...

salt/c and antiparasitic herbs saved my life. These protocols also went after bb and the other co-infections. Has to be consistenet and persistent. Can take several yrs depending on how long you were infected.

I treated borellia, bartonella and babesia, which I tested positive for, but I never fully recovered until I treated protomyxzoa with stromectol. I am at 95%. As PR is incurable, I have to stay on top of it with diet restrictions and the occasional round of stromectol.
I am experimenting with other things such as LipoPhos EDTA and Artemix, to try to find a less invasive method of keeping it under control. LipoPhos has phospholipids that are essential fats needed by all the cells of the body and it stimulates the BHMT mutation directly related to the CBS mutation.
The phosopholids are somehow bound with the EDTA so it can get through all the cells (including brain cells), where the EDTA is released and binds with heavy metals. The EDTA can only cross the blood brain barrier one way without the phospholipids so it does not go back into the brain with the metals. EDTA will also not leach mercury from the teeth because it does not get into saliva. And it does not have sulfur, like DMSA, so it is safe for those of us with CBS.
If you take the LipoPhos EDTA with something like Artemix - a supplement with the strongest deriviatives of artmesia (artemesinin, artemether and artesunate) then that is transported into the biofilm along with the EDTA. The EDTA breaks down the biofilm by binding with magnesium and the Artemix kills the PR.
That is the theory anyway. I do it a couple of days a week. When I break the diet restrictions though, I need stromectol to get things under control again because the PR multiplies 100 times faster with lipids.
I was hoping if the LipoPhos EDTA with Artemix worked well, I could loosen up on the diet but that has not been the case so far.
I am also experimenting with camel's milk which is supposed to kill parasites. I just started.
It would be nice to be able to eat a little more normal but so far, not happening.

Interesting about the LipoPhos & artemesia... I'm going to study it later.
Nefferdun - you may want to look into red seaweeds. Some of them are found to be anti-protazoa. I posted about it in the seaweed thread I have going.

By far, parasite treatment has given me my most promising steps forward. I haven't been doing much on the other infections for many months now. It's basically been about the parasites. And I'm doing great!

I will look into that but if it has sulfur like sprirulina, I can't take it. I have a mix of anti-parasitic herbs I need to start taking again. Maybe I will take it with the LipoPhos EDTA and Artemix so it gets into the cells and biofilm better.
The stomectol is causing the side effect of bloody eyes so I have to quit using it. It sure was effective. I often develop side effects whenever I take a drug a long time and this one is very rare. Just my luck.

neff - Bummer about that side effect. Ugh. Do you also take salt/c? I think it is a good addition to any anti-parasite protocol.

Stromectol gave me an itchy scalp and sores. It didn't help. I'm having trouble breathing and mepron does help with that. I had to start using a cpap machine anyway.
