Re: (graphic pic) Would someone please identify this worm? (Hookworm??)

Yes, my bloat is going down; it flares up VERY rarely anymore, and when it does, dissipates very quickly.

Thanks for the thought about it being a PIECE of a worm - I hadn't considered that! Good point. I do not know what kind of parasite it is; hookworm seemed to fit from the reading I've done, but I am no expert. I realize people can have multiple kinds at once.

Yes! I am eating several cloves of raw garlic a day, maybe 3-4. Do you think this is enough?

It's hard to tell from pictures. It seems to me that the standard paracide herbals and a zapper will kill it whatever it is. In fact, if it is a bug, look, it's already dead! In the end the Q becomes not "What is it?" (though we all want to know) but "Are they all gone yet?"

Hahaha, you are so right! I'm just glad the herbs and careful diet are working and these buggers are coming OUT! It is a relief. I guess it doesn't matter so much what KIND of worm it is because I am not going to take any specific medication; just continue with rotating my antiparasitic/antifungal/antiseptic/antibacterial herbs.

I guess I'm nervous, still. Wondering if there's a 15' monster going to explode out my butt. You never think you could have parasites til it happens, KWIM? It shakes your self-esteem and self-confidence quite a bit. I guess I just like conformation for peace of mind.

Thanks for replying!
