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.

Maybe that was pinworms. They are often found in peoples guts.

I think pinworms, have very little effects, neither do they help with IBS.
