I was just about to post something about parasites. I found out today I have giardia and some other kind of worm. That's all we've come across, but there's probably more that just haven't surfaced yet. What parasite meds are you doiong? I've done a round of Ivermectin, Albenza, and Alinia. But the Ivermectin gave me seizures, and the Alinia gave me terrible symptoms. The Alinia was so rough for me I never made it to full dose. Now I am doing homeopathics for it, but I am not totally positive that will work. I've heard humaworm is good too. There are so many things to try, and it's overwhelming. Just having a parasite diagnosis is overwhelming in and of itself, because I don't feel like anyone knows how to treat it, and it never gets better. I'd love to hear your experience with it thus far.
I definitely can't sleep during full moons. I know it's parasite related. Someone told me to eat some raw garlic before bed to help with insomnia. I also have to wear a night mouth guard to help with teeth grinding while on parasite protocols.
So sorry. That sounds awful. If the meds are too rough, maybe try some herbal formulas first. I’ve been using Paragone from Woodland Essence. But instead of bringing out babesia symptoms or symptoms of intestinal parasites, it caused a bart herx. Go figure. I think the neem in it busts biofilm. Cryptolepis and artemisia both target babesia and parasites.
Here are some suggestions from Buhner (very old):
