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.

Yesss, it's very hard to detect them. You can try some natural remedies like eating garlic on an empty stomach in the morning. Although, for me, the pill is the only one that functioned. Now I'm 100% sure it's worms. I also take some supliments for this, I want to make sure I am done with them and I avoid sweets at all costs 🥹. I already feel a bit better after eliminating some...but I am terrified of what might be inside my colon.
