MDJunction to me

tomboykimi"What MD Junction means to me is a place where i can feel like im not alone. As someone with something as rare as hydrocephalus, it feels like im the only one in the world with it. When i came to MD, its like everyone has it. It doesnt feel like im alone. And that people need to hold up a sign to say what i have, because people know. And they understand. I can get questions answered from people who have been through it rather than from doctors or people who only can tell you from a physical standpoint. THat is what MD junction means to me."

For those who had intestinal parasites and treated them, how did you do it? What were your symptoms? How long did it take to get rid of them?

Raven, I had said I was going to try the papaya seed thing, but never got around to it. I was also reading that pure pomegranate juice and raw carrots are anti-parasitic. What does that actually mean?

If I drink a ton of pomegranate juice and eat tons of raw carrots, will that do anything for them? I don't even know for sure if I have them, but if it might make a difference I am willing to try.

Dxd March 2012 with Lyme, Babesia, and suspected Bartonella, after suffering for 4 years, and possibly having it even longer. Same as most others, I have suffered with a long list of terrible symptoms.
Also have POTS, RA and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. Working with a LLMD.

My whole family took a supplement called parasiteX (or something like that). We had to take

2-3 pills on an empty stomach, then 4 hours later do it again. Not eating 2 hours before or

a half hour after. Did this for 30 days.

You can google anti-parasite supplements. How did it make us feel? Pretty bad at first-you know

the die-off. But after finishing, I (me, being the sick one), felt a little better.

I've heard these parasites have a 4-5 week life cycle. I'll spare you the details, but

let me assure you the pills DO work!

Hope this helps!

Hi Bee,

Some of my symptoms were...

itchy ears & butt (TMI - but this was AWFUL!)

Abdominal distention

burping/gas

bad-smelling bm

feeling heavy

upper abdomen pain - especially left side

emotional issues (sheesh, what DOESN'T cause this, eh?)

*not sure if all of these were for sure from parasites - could be from candida, too...but they've improved to various degress with treatment Smile

luv - how did you treat them? I am still exploring all of the options right now. Forgive me for being redundant.

I had no symptoms, this was about 10 years ago.

I had been on an organic carrot binge just because I like them.

I dont know how long it took, a week or two but

I went to the bathroom for " what i thought to be " a bowel movement.

Looked in toilet after I flushed.

It was a slow flusher and what I saw will never be forgotten

A toilet filled with big , fat parasites. Grossed me out!!!!

No fecal matter, just worms. Probably were in me a long time!

Dont know what type they were.

I think carrots, ginger and tumeric are just a few natural worm killers.

Hubby passed a parasite aprox 2 inches long just 3 days ago after drinking alot of carrot juice during the week.

Thank you Belle!! I am loading up on high fiber v8 juice, sunflower seed butter and raw carrot sticks today. Also been roasting garlic cloves in the oven at dinner time, and tonight I tried some ground cloves in pudding, not sure if it will do anything.

Bee...

I treated with wormwood complex (standard process), oil of oregano, parastat (energique), and ACS200 - Colloidal silver in spray form.

These helped a lot. For some reason, i feel like the wormwood was especially great.

I'm still doing the silver spray and other naturals that may impact parasites/candida.

Shoot, maybe I should eat a bunch of carrots! It really is so disturbing to see weird stuff come out, eh?
