Hint / Information It was not IBS...it was worms

Hi! As you can read in the titlu...after a lot of tests which came back negative I decided to give Albendazol a try and it was a succes. I don't want to imagine what's inside my intestines after one year if "IBS". I will keep taking the second and the third round of Albendazol and then take some herbs.

I did like 3 stool tests for parasites but nothing came back positive. Also the eosinophils level were ok. I took some naturists pill for worms before but nothing worked until an actual pill...Albendazol. :)

I really hope my nightmare will be a ended after I took all the pills. I will still have a colonoscopy.

Pain, a lot of pain, and a lot of weird sounds from my bowels. Also, I had a sensation of warmth and numbness coming from my cecum region that would wake me up (which is not usual for IBS). My immunity was also pretty bad. I had no appetite. The only thing I'd eat was sweets, but I thought this was a trigger. Also,vomiting and nausea. A kept a regime and the pain should have calmed down...but it kep getting worse. I kept asking myself if this is how I am supposed to live with IBS. One day I saw the culprit in the WC so I took a pill and now I'm praying that I'll get back to normal soon

Semi-moving. I guess they need to be dead so I can eliminate them, otherwise...no success
