Do parasites cause autoimmune diseases?

Sorry frank47, i dont mean to intrude in your post by switching to myself... Im 20 years old, about 2-4 days after eating psychedelic mushrooms Ive seem to have caught some bug (although it may not be from the mushrooms). Or so i believe its some kind of bug and or parasite. I've had mucus like stools mixed with diarrhea that has occurred every morning for the past month, i generally have 1-3 of these stools within an hour of waking up then throughout the day i have what feels like diarrhea, but bubbles and rabbit-size stools are all that come out, ive been rushing to the toilet nearly 10 times a day despite my morning procedure for the bubble/rabbit-like stools.

Along with these symptoms ive also felt as if im having heartburn in my stomach and intestines, (although its hard to say its heartburn-like feeling because ive never had heartburn), this feeling is almost consistently throughout the day but more-so after 6-8pm. It's similar to an empty stomach feeling (as if you hadnt eaten for 2 days, but include burning-like pain). Sometimes ill have slight chest pains below my left pectoral muscle. I feel much more comfortable in my body moving around and not thinking about it (not thinking about it has become very hard recently). A new symptom im experiencing a tingle starting from my left temple (head) down to my shoulder then to my wrist in my left arm..

I've also had a great loss of appetite, but im still shoveling food into my body. Ive lost nearly 20 pounds in the last 3 and a half weeks, I was weighing in at 148.??lbs for my first doctors visit, then yesterday I weighed in at 131lbs at a different hospital.. The only thing ive cut out of my diet is meat (despite chicken and fish), milk, and soda. Now ive added fruits such as banana, kiwi, apple, raspberries, blackberries and oranges to my diet, vegetables: are a lot harder for me to eat (unsure why, but i want to eat them but halfway threw chewing im very tempted to spit them out regardless what it is, i used to love most of these veggies also!) such as carrots, broccoli, green/red/any kind of pepper, and sprouts (not much of a variety).

I've been into two separate hospitals. Both have been ministry associated. I am told to wait to see if my symptoms go away in 2-3 weeks from both hospitals, i asked them what i could change in my diet ... as for my first doctor had said dont change anything if you can keep it down (which i found strange?) and my second doctor had said my food regiment was fairly good for what id been feeling. (eggs, veggies, toast for breakfast - kiwi/banana/apple/raw pepper/crackers&peanut butter for snack (one or two of them). - generally have brown rice with some kind of fruit and or veggie with it along with fish/chicken for protein.

my second doctor had recommended tums ...ehh, really?.... if my symptoms are still showing in two to three weeks im supposed to come in for a colonoscopy, so that would mean ive waited almost 2 months with my symptoms, without absolutely anything being looked at...REDICULOUS! I didnt want to wait another another 3 weeks with my stomach/intestines/anus burning continuously, along with the new feature of my tingle with my left temple down to my left wrist. I told him i wanted it done as soon as possible, his reply : "well, i would recommend waiting to see if your pain is consistent or increases, it could merely be stomach nerves acting with the mushrooms toxins"..... so 3 and a half weeks of consistent pain isnt long enough, and its been a month since i had taken the mushrooms...

Both doctors ive seen seem quite unreliable, as both are Internal Medicine doctors. I do not wish to resume seeing my I.M. doctors after my colonoscopy (despite what the result is) . . . .

I need help finding the correct kind of doctor that isnt related to Ministry and or Aspirus hospitals, as for most doctors I see seem to want to get out of the room as soon as possible, I feel as though doctors dont give two #$^@ whats wrong with people but just for the money they'll be getting...

Money is not an issue for me, I can go out of country if needed, if deemed necessary

Recommendations for a type of doctor i should see?.... please and thank you. Sorry if this post is hard to connect...

Hi. I am 26 yrs old and convinced I have parasites although for the past two yrs I have been back and forth to the docs and not taken seriously. I can feel movement in my shoulder blade like crawling and wriggling. Over the past few months I have started to itch all over my body every few weeks and I can't cope with it. For the past yr I have also had worms coming down my nose. I can feel them, especially at night. Constant problems with one eye and swelling/wriggling movements in eyelid. I have headaches very often and general aches/pains. My hair is also falling out and I have developed allergies which came on at the same time this all started. I have been fobbed off with anti depressants and told me it is all in my head. It isn't and I am not imagining it. They don't seem to get the fact that is is this ongoing problem that is depressing me. I have young children and just want to feel normal again, not constantly itching or uncomfortable. Xx

Hi,

PLEASE try FOOD GRADE diatomaceous earth for the parasite problem.To be consumed in water.Start off with 1/2 to 1 level tsp per day, work up to maybe 2/3 heaped tsp daily, in a month or 2....

Been taking it for 3 months, results, but slow.Kills parasites and gently scrapes colon.First 1-2 months may feel only small improvements (2 steps ahead,1.5 behind...).Will get intense detox symptoms as the parasites die and release toxins and layers of crud coating colon slowly removed. Back off dosage if cant tolerate.Lots of chopped up crap falls in b.m.BUT,THIS STARTED ONLY AFTER 2 MONTHS ON D.E FOR ME !!

Drink plenty of water, maybe herbal laxative as d.e has tendency to constipate.

I'm 45, been on downhill since 20 yrs, lost hair, tiredness, premature aging, bad knee pain.Healthy according to doctors but but could tell wasn't at my best.Tried raw food diet etc etc but didnt help as key (parasites) not dealt with.

Expect liver related pain (right shoulder,below breastbone), low back pain, neck pain (kidneys) as you detox + cough/cold tiredness fever etc.

My results so far:lots of energy, some eyesight improvement,positive outlook, knee pain on some days ZERO (on the days am not detoxing, which is rare).Am detoxing continuously (evidence in b.m, various aches/pains) doubt will feel much better before 6 months.With the amount of crap falling out,suspect I am riddled with parasites......

Funny HOW animals are supposed to be dewormed, but not humans.Saw N.geo programme abt. animals that instinctively carry out anti-parasitical treatments, internal and external; there is nothing in our everyday diets that can stop parasites from taking hold.

I am not doing any other alternative therapy other than EARTHING with a homemade stainless steel plate that I clamp to sole of foot at night.It helps a lot with the pain and tiredness too, but is a band aid......

I take no supplements.

Pl. take 2/3 week miracle claims with pinch of salt (on web).It is a slow, long term process.

sorry for the long post, wanted to share what I knew.Hope this helps.Lots of info on the net,but you have to be your own expert and go about it very carefully.Taking too much d.e initially at one go is a no no !!!IT MUST MUST MUST BE FOOD GRADE, LOOKS FEELS LIKE OFF WHITE TALCUM POWDER.

regards.

Hi I found this site searching lupus/parasites because my husbands autoimmune symptoms seem to be within the range of lupus or lyme disease and I was reading on the Wyze Report website that this is probably from parasites. Ive been doing a lot of research on holistic medicine and for parasites and/or yeast in addition to the food grade DE there are treatments such as colloidal silver, cloves, black walnut, papaya seed, oregano oil, coconut oil, olive leaf, garlic, & grapefruit seed extract. I think it is helpful to use several treatments everyday in addition to removing grains and unnatural sugars from your diet. Many microbes feed on sugar/starch. Hoping everyone feels better soon.

As you have unknown parasite .it is protozoa .this is the first thing

second send your stool for a lab. that using PCR method (not micrscopic method)for defining most

protozoa.

I used to suffer some of your  symptoms for many years and spend a lot of money in studies and hospitals. It is not an easy answer,  but do a reasearch about celiac  allergies and coconut virgin oil, lauric acid. Organic fruits and salads might help, fresh organic food for a while. Avoid stress and meditate.  All the best and blessings.

I was just diagnosed with parasites by a microscopist, Laura Belg-Adams. Seriously, give her a call. Your symptoms are exactly case-book and she will explain exactly what is happening. There is a reason she has patients from all over the world. Give her 90 days. What have you got to lose? In the States, 917-449-1060
