Just wanted to advise others to diligently treat for parasites. I've been treating lyme with antibiotics for about 10 months and I recently passed a large tapeworm (I named him Miles for obvious reasons). Horror of horrors!

i would suggest that you get on medication for parasites immediately. Where there is one worm there usually are many , whether you do it herbally or other forms of treatment is your call but im hoping you are doing something immediately
i would also advise you to treat any and all animals in your home right away and again two weeks from now as this may be a source of the parasites that you have

My doctor had prescribed vermox a couple of times in addition to antibiotics. I'd already been treating with alternative therapies. We haven't owned pets for several years now (aside from outside cats that no one goes near).

How the heck do you know you have parasites? Dont the antibiotics kill them? Can you treat them and take antibiotics for Lyme at the same time?

Not to ask questions about something this gross, but what does it look like when it comes out?

I am going to be starting the Salt and C protocol, and I heard this may kill parasites. I would like to know what I am looking for.

If it's working, what should I be looking for in my poop? (Yea, I said poop.)

Ugh.

Another case here, sad to say. Thanks for alerting members!!

You can have them without glaring signs, and no -- antibiotics don't kill them, neither do prescribed de-wormers (tho-- they may kill some, and at least alert you to their presence)..
but be careful with these drugs, because they can make some species resistant, or cause them to migrate to other organs.

Where there is one, there are more.

This takes study, research and dilligence. As much as Lyme does.

The symptoms can mimic Lyme.

I wish more patients were forwarned..it's still too taboo a subject, and that is of great detriment, I feel.

If you are on abx long term, odds are you have them.

Abx strip the body of the good organisms with the bad, the balance is off..and the parasites that exist on virtually every healthy mammilian body without problems, become BIG problems.

From microscopic, to those seen by the naked eye, and larger.

Treatment is comprehensive. Research it well..multi-level, plus it has to agre with what you are doing Lyme wise.

I have done initially prescription
de-wormer, then herbs for months, intestinal cleansing (is esential!), kidney cleanse, liver and gall bladder cleanses, and the Sputnik..so far.

What an ordeal.

This level of cleansing also can stir up embedded Lyme and other infections, and then you have to cultivate good bacteria.

GiGi I hope will weigh in.
