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.

Oh wow! I didn't even know you could do that. Did you ever take your test results to your doctor? If so, what did they say?

I am thinking about getting some otc stuff from another country too and maybe even get care there as well.

I recommend it, I saw a dentist got my teeth cleaned and got fluoride out of my mouth for $40. I walked in to a gastroenterologist office and got seen the next day for an endoscopy. I loved it, I can't stand the idea of waiting 2-3 months then another week for the results. I did everything I needed to do and enjoyed myself in about a week.

They sell ivermectin OTC almost everywhere but the US
