Does albendazole kill anything besides parasites?
I have been treating parasites (think roundworms) for over 3 years. After taking MMS for a few weeks and stopping because I got too sick, the albendazole feels like it's affecting me more. I am actually passing less parasites now than before, so don't think I would be feeling more sick from that.

I felt bad on albenza and found out it was due to taking it with more fat (makes proto grow). It's the protomyxzoa that makes people feel bad, which makes this med a good identifier.

I don't take it with more fat...never have and it works well without it.

I think albendazole is hard to tolerate. I am reluctant to take it for that reason. Ivermectin works well for me.

I've also seen it referenced as a cyst buster.

It depends on what type of parasite you are dealing with. Ivermectin and Albenza treat different parasites.

I still haven't figured it out, Bea. Starting to think it's not the albedazole but maybe a bart relapse with all the stomach issues and burning blood.

When you say burning do you mean hot or acidy?
Can you remember exactly what started this?
When did you last have a checkup and routine blood work? Can you take your vitals?

One of my top LLMD that I saw last year said burning blood feel is babesia like organism such as proto. That would also explain your cold feet and hands.
Anti-malarials with heparin. Herbs rotate art and crypto.
Also juicing, (wheatgrass is good) PEMF, Infrared sauna and replenish any electrolytes. Check potassium and magnesium levels. Check coagulation issues.
