I was diagnosed with a blood test. My concern was flukes due to my diarrhea visuals, but it came back with Stongyloides. I had no idea and haven't seen signs of them, yet. From what I've read it's a common side effect to prednisone, very unfortunate. Not sure I will do the Bitricide based on everything I've read online and curezone, but plan to call my doc in the morning to get more info. I will let you know how it goes.
