fenbendazole is active against microsporidia...

Does anyone think this is the culprit? Is the roundworm Carrie's fluke? Excuse me if not. I've been known to make outlandish mistakes.
My gut feeling is telling me this may be what I have. I've been taking Iver during the moon phases, and fenben in between. I always felt fenben was doing the trick, while with Iver, I had my doubts. Also, because it caused the morgs to run to my eyelids, I've taken less of it.
Although I've been extermely sick as of late, with narcolepsy like attacks, major brain fog, and pain, I think I have noticed things fenben may be accountable for.
I consider the gook released from your body a sign of improvement. I find no discomfort from it like Bannanny because the gook comes out of my neck. Along with the morgs in my neck, I think the gook's weight has been responsible for making me look like a turkey. The times this has happened have been when I took a little more fenben than usual.
You never know though. As I was miserable going straight, plus rapidly loosing the faith, I got back on various drugs, Sulfameth/Trimethopram being one of them. It could be the combination of them, one or the other. Nevertheless, for the first time in how many years,(I forgot-many) my face seems to be clearing up. Actually, my face had started to clear before I took the Sulfa, but I haven't had as many sleep attacks since taking it.
As we all thought the Sulfa was the cure long ago, I think it may be doing something, now that the morgs have probably forgotten about it. (JMO) I think I just got off track, sorry.
The only thing that happened when I started taking the prescription drugs was my upper left part of my back, and my neck were in hideous pain. This lasted only for one day though, and I can only relate it to a migration. I pray it was from my head to my body.
All this has just gotten me a little excited because of the discovery, and my success with the fenben. I don't recall anything spectacular when I took the Iver, which all the scientists were recommending.
Excuse me, but could this not be verified by checking our stools? This is driving me nuts. It may be much more simple than what we've been thinking.
Did anyone with problem faces, who cleared them up, experience this? My face feels like it's full of glass, but it seems to be rotten morgs, and what used to be skinny fiber bands turned into thick rubber band like things stretched across my face. The only way to remove my scars is to get these things out, and it is so painful. I attribute this, just a wild guess, to the Dettol, because I didn't have this before I started it on my face. I tend to think it made my "worms" crispy, and tough, as it possibly killed a few.
Oh my, was I thinking this was my thread? Please forgive, I didn't really get off topic too many times, did I?
Hugs, freaky

About six months before I knew I had an unwelcomed something going on I had a colonoscopy where four polyps were removed, with at least one of them being "quite large" according to the Doctor and confirmed to me via a photograph. Within a couple of days of that procedure I went on a trip that took me to a region of Wisconsin were there had been contamination of the ground and drinking water with the pathogen microsporidia (which I did not know until later, when I had this stuff full blown). Within one day of arriving I had substantial discomfort in the region of the "surgery" portion of the procedure to the point of considering going to the hospital out of town. So, I had always thought that this could have been one possibility of my several exposures to one of the potential root cause(s) of the Morgellons. But I had also had tick bites with reactions and multiple exposures to buildings with mold, including one building at work with the fibers and granules everywhere, including places I had personally never been on the floor. I would also feel like I was being bit on the legs at my computer in that building.
My treatment were a series of anti-helmith medications followed by an anti-protozoa medication. The theory was if one kills the parasite, then you become the new host for its parasites, so one would have to follow up with the anti-protozoa medication. When my symptoms began to return with more vigor about a year later, I was given the same anti-protozoa medication and it knocked the symptoms back substantially again.
I use something else to stomp/stop the symptoms if they even start back up.
This overall condition is multifaceted and the various symptoms may be caused by several different causal agents.
Hopefully we will know someday.

Kmarie, thank you for your compliment. Could you please tell me how you took your fenben? i Just guess, & it makes me nervous. Think I could get my doc to test me for microsporidia? I guess it'd be of no value if the way to get well is fenben? Sammy, you've been searching. Thank you. bigmike, I'm happy for you. That's great that you've gotten better. Now what's the drug you take if it ever comes back? ;D Hugs, & down with the bugs, freaky

Hi Freaky, no roundworms are totally different then "Carrie's Fluke!"
But none the less, every parasite has it's fauna, so if it dies in your tissues and the bug body does what it does and decompose the dead body we're exposed more so the the fauna of the parasite, especially things like yeast/Candida.
Remember I was posting a while ago about vertical transmission? There was an intestinal fluke that infected bats and horses where it was found that the the parasite host then ended up having that bacterial infection (it was one of the tick related bacteria the one that starts with an E).
So like, ooh, you don't have to get bit by a tick to get that tick born bacterial infection...you just have to have that particular fluke...ah ha!!!
Hi Sammy ;D

Okay so it's not the "E" (Ehrlichia) in relation to the bats and horse fluke/vertical transmission bacterial infections it's this one Neorickettsia risticii!?! But I don't really understand that because some articles say that the Neorickettsia is the "E" one also...go figure!?! www.ingentaconnect.com/content/bsc/emi/2005/00000007/00000002/art00006?crawler=trueAnyway...they did isolate Ehrlichia from another fluke too. cat.inist.fr/?aModele=afficheN&cpsidt=3006768I think they're going to find that Lyme is associated with the SLF and that's why we have chronic Lyme infections because we have constant fluke infections. When the parasites release eggs in your body, even worse in your tissues they're also introducing their glorious flora . I could never find anything about that. Either the SLF or the intestinal fluke's fauna. Actually, I think that they're going to find those tick born disease related to some fluke, yep and Parvo too. I think many of the service dogs coming back from Vietnam brought the flukes back with them. Many of those dogs came back sick and introduced the Parvo virus and Ehrlichia in the 70's. And Vietnam is loaded with lots and lots of flukes in it's wetlands. It was only after giving Oddball a serious dose of some (I don't remember names but it treated the "E" one) strong antibacterial after she was in the hospital 6 days with Parvo she started improving and we knew she would make it. I don't believe in coincidences. Good point Sammy...!

Wow...are you ready!?! Heehee... I never realized it was this one? This is the little tiny intestinal fluke that has a flora of Ehrlichia. Wow that's pretty impressive. www.stanford.edu/class/humbio103/ParaSites2004/Heterophyidae/right-bottom.htmlSo if you have a simple, "symbiotic" infection with this parasite right...? Hum. What if you have an intestinal ulcer and the eggs do embolize in to varies parts of your body? Oooh and they bring the bacteria to that area of the body...? Oooh and ahhhh, the other tick for our non-tick bited people to bring in our tick born disease. Dang baby...and the one that carries the "E" word DOES infect humans. Oooh that's juicy! We've been here before on this subject and LB but I don't think we realized the juicy of the juice baby. Super dooper "vertical transmission." Hum...wonder how we get those tick born diseases when we ain't supposed to have them sorta ticks 'round here!?!
