Giardia lamblia

First very important question. Which lab gave you the Giardia diagnose

>I dont know if I keep getting re-infected or if it never goes in the first place

Maybe you are getting recontaminated from the places you go to, people or pets you live with. Maybe the food or water you are having are contaminated?

>Again they advised that the commmon cure is Fasigyn Tinidazole... This I have taken since 2006 when ever I have had the problems.... I need clarification if this drug also kills the eggs & cysts.

At this point you might want to buy some tropical disease books. TropicalBoy had a good list of books. Try to search for his list in this forum.

I think I cured my Giardia. Try to find some of my older posts. One of the meds I used against giardia that worked well was Giarlam (furazolidona). IIRC I used it for around 10 days. I explained in detail what I did in that old post... This is not the correct post but it might be helpfull http://curezone.com/forums/am.asp?i=1770253 I took furazolidona a couple of times in the last 6 years.

I also did Albendazole together with metronidazole http://curezone.com/forums/am.asp?i=1850611

I think tinidazole is stronger then metronidazole tho. What dose are you taking?

I think I have cured Giardia but I could be wrong since I'm still sick. The last tests I did only showed Entamoeba histolytica so I could still be sick from Entamoeba histolytica only and not Giardia.

I took giarlam after taking amoeba medicine in 2010 and felt great for around 2 months but then symptoms returned and then I was diagnosed with Entamoeba histolytica again but not Giardia...

>The doctor advised as im Celiac that this maybe why Im not getting beter. She advised to take another douse & come back in another month & do a stool test.

Did he test you and found out you are Celiac or did he just guess?
One doctor guessed I had irritable bowel simdrome but it turned out I had Giardia and Entamoeba histolytica!!!

>I asked if this does not resolve it ( im not expecting it to get to the root of the problem as it has not in the past) The doctor said that they can try me on stronger drugs...

That is already better then many drs that think this stuff is all in peoples heads or just "stress" and don't know how to properly test.

>I have had parasites at least 3 times out there and probably at least 3 times in the UK.
In Brazil & peru I was given some antibiotics that seemed to deal with the problem then.

If you happen to go to Brazil again there is an awesome lab in Rio - Niteroi called Labion.

>When I have been to the conventional doctors in the UK when I have been ill the typical response is "its impossible to get parasites in the UK" And I think that's why its a bigger problem in this country as most doctors tend not to acknowledge there is a problem.

Thanks to protozoas I have learned that people are pretty f***ing dumb in general... Too bad I learned the hard way :o(
Sadly the protozoas also made me more dumb but at least I'm still perceptive and critical enough to see my self... I fear that many people and drs are chasing ghost diseases because of protozoa...

>I decided just for the sake of it to provide a stool sample to the local pathology department. ( I wasn't expecting any great miracles as when I was initially ill again in January I had 3 tests & no parasites were shown, however the parasites showed up on the VEga machine.

I'm not familiar with Vega machines... I have done many stool parasite tests and all of them have been useless with the exception of Labion in Brazil which found Giardia and Entamoeba histolytica. There was another lab that found Giardia in Brazil by using proctoscopy called Clinica Aloysio de Carvalho also in Rio city. I'm currently getting help from an American dr called Kevin Cahil in NYC and he does siginoidoscopic examination with mucosal scraping, he has also been able to find Entamoeba histolytica.

Those are the only 3 labs I know that works and I tried many labs around the world in the past 6 years... "Clinica Aloysio de Carvalho" was able to find Giardia but not EH...

>In the mean time a day ago my conventional Doctor contacted me and advised that the stool samples showed that I had a parasite again the Gadial Lamblia..

Finding a parasite in a stool sample is like winning the lotto or getting hit by lightening... Which lab was this?

I don't know about you but at this point I don't feel confident that natural remedies help. Maybe it can help in some small cases.
Maybe pipali rasayana can work against giardia some times...

As for allopathic medicine, I understand that Quinacrine can kill giardia which are difficult to kill... Dr Wolfe in Washington DC USA seems to be the Dr to go to for difficult Giardia... Maybe you can give him a call... I never seen him but read good things http://www.martinwolfemd.com/p8.html


>Also being told I have liver disturbance has that any connecting ?
so I just need to know how I get to the route of this problem, never did I used to have these issues. however is it a true facts around 90 % of people world wide have parasites ?

For a while I was only diagnosed with Giardia and then later found Entamoeba histolytica make sure you don't have something else if you kill the Giardia but still feel sick :o)

>Very confused of where I go from here & what I trust gong forward

You seem to want to try natural remedies... That has not worked for me... Maybe you might want to look for more efficient medication...

Please keep in touch :o)

All the best
