Hi I was wondering if there is a database of parasite pictures on here so that I can see what I have. I know people mentioned it before but I’m not sure where it is.   [End]

HI yes I am still taking herbs and I still have a fever. I felt that the herbs probably re-activated something that was dormant.   [End]

A few weeks back I started using herbs everyday in order to get rid of a suspected parasite. For the past 2 weeks I have developed a fever that is usually around 100 degrees to 101 degrees Farenheit. I am normally 98.6. The weird thing is that I don’t really feel sick during these past 2 weeks. It’s just that my temperature went up. My worst symptoms happened earlier in the year when I had things like brain fog, fatigue and nausea etc. I never had a fever during any of those times.

Hi for almost half a year I’ve been sick with digestive issues. Recently, a GI specialist did scopes but didn’t see anything wrong upon observation. I was wondering if anyone could help me figure this out.

I have read that parasites can be hard to detect using ova and parasite exams with traditional doctors. But I was wondering if this applied only to the microscopic ones or does it apply to even the large visible types? I would think that even with a half-competent lab, they would be able to see the large ones.   [End]

I understand that parasite symptoms usually flare up. How long does each flare up last on average? And how long do you usually stay in remission? Thanks for your help   [End]

Hi, I was wondering about whether I have parasites and just wanted to get an idea of the symptoms. If a person is infected with parasites, do they have weeks of remission and a week of flare ups? Or is it basically a constant level of illness?   [End]
