Help!

My dear I have had these for 3 years now and tried lots of different things and kept what I think to be a reasonable hygiene routine but all to no avail.

I have recently come across a comment on Patient UK that horsetail can kill worms and their eggs.  So having already had some horsetail capsules have started taking them and after threeish weeks have noticed a downturn in the itching.  Because the cycle of threadworms is quite a long time allowing for reinfection etc I will continue to take them (if they show positive results) for at least 3/4 months and continue with the washing, showering, scrubbing during that time and beyond.

It may be worth trying these herbs to see if it can help you.  I have sort of come to terms with the fact that there is a possibility I may never actually be rid of them but if I can dampen down the symptoms I will be very happy.

I have also had some success with Unda Complex but depending where you live (Canada/America are good) some companies will not post internationally because they contain a very small amount of alcohol (restrictions with the postal companies).  I used Unda 39, 3 and tried to get  number 17 which taken did also dampen down the itching.

Dont give up - there are times that I have also felt like I did not want to go on, but on the good days I try to stay positive.  I would not wish these on my worst enemy as they have had a destructive effect upon my family life but ending it is definitely not the answer.  If over time you find you have found something that will help others in the same position I'm sure they will be eternally grateful.

I hope that you can try the horsetail with the same results as I have had.

Ok JanG11 may tell you that horsetail is a source of silica and that it quite true because I have looked that up and not just taken the word of another's comment on this site.  But I have to insist that I have had better results taking that than months of Dr Hauka's parasite cleanse routine, wormwood, clove and green walnut hull tincture, diamataceous earth, (twice) etc etc et, all to no avail (for me that is).  

If the horsetail can aleviate the symptoms of these horrible threadworms, after three years of unsuccessful total obliteratioon, I am grateful for the lessening of the irritation.

Of course try the 'herbal routine' not many appear to have had success with it, but hey why don't we all write to the appropriate drug companys and ask why there is nothing currently on the market to kill the threadworm eggs and stop making so much money out of mebendazole that clearly doesn't work the only over the counter drug available.

JanG11.  I have also googled Horsetail and it's potency against threadworms and there is a connection that it can help kill eggs and expel threadworms.  As parasites are cyclical I will take the horsetail and clove capsules for at least six months, but up to now I do have days that are almost worm free and for this I am eternally grateful.  However long it takes I will beat this.

Any information I can pass on to other sufferers I will, I only wish I had read about horsetail sooner.

As this is not a life threateneing 'illness' and probably last on the list for funding by drug companies of the national health, will we ever be free of them?
