interesting that you bring up weight.. i've noticed that people are dosed based on their body weight.. wouldn't it make more sense to dose based on parasite load? or the size of the worm?
i am a 5'4/108 pound person... my paramour is 6' and 25lbs. His dose would be double mine, but if we both have the same infection, like a huge ascaris, wouldn't it make more sense to treat the actual infection based on the size of the ascaris?
he doesn't have any symptoms btw.. he just dosed with meds as a precaution when the girls had pinworms.. i'm the only weirdo in the family who has something squirming in their colon. but what doesn't make sense to me is that i'm always given a child's size dose of something because i'm so small. IF infact i DO have some huge ascaris, it's gonna take a boat load of meds to kill this. I'm beginning to wonder if the amount of medicine needed to kill said parasite will be enough to bring the host close to death. I don't know what's going on, but obviously nothing is working for anyone... so a new protocol with a new drug or new SOMETHING is needed.
