I don’t see any visible signs of worms but that does not mean they are not present. I wonder if this is some type of mucous that may be coming from the immune response. Have you done any stool testing? (not that testing is foolproof btw). Possible that this may be bacterial or protozoa infection.   [End]

Ascaris is a nematode and nematodes have tapered heads or tails and are uniform (cylindrical), if you have them then you will see more than one and again they look alike. This appears to me to be plaque which in my opinion is what people call rope worms.   [End]

One possibility is tapeworm. These eggs are the only visible eggs from worms. People report seeing ”white rice”. Keep in mind that this is only a guess. Also, parasite testing is very hit or miss, there are many false negatives. The range of parasites is big, meaning that you could have a parasite that does not match up with the lab guide books, therefore if they cannot match it up with known parasites then you get a negative.   [End]

I have been around for awhile and never seen anything like this. There are some herbs that are larvacidal (neem is one of those, do not ingest neem oil, just the herb. I wonder if some of the enzymes might work such as lumbrokinase, serrapeptase etc.   [End]

I presume that you excluded any food that you might be eating. The only eggs (ova) that can be seen by the naked eye are from tapeworms. There are a few varieties, so it is hard to say which species. You can do an image search to see if anything matches up. Of course, this could be wrong advice, sorry to alarm you.   [End]

Of an educational note, the gut is one of the most vulnerable places for infection. There are a number of pathogens that can harbor there. Obviously parasites (worm) but also bad bacteria, fungal/yeast, viruses etc. Protozoa parasites are often overlooked and can be problematic. The reason I bring this up is that some of the other bugs may require a different strategy. Diagnosing parasites or other pathogens is a hit or miss experience.   [End]

Nematodes are generally not that large. One thing you can do is to ”save” the sample (not put in a preservative solution) and see if it disappears. The point of this exercise is to determine if it is indeed a parasite or plaque coming off the colon walls. Worms generally disintegrate over a few days where if it were plaque then it would not disintegrate. Tapes have distinctive shapes, e.g. they are not smooth but looks like a Michelin man. Typically people see white rice particles in their stool which has a high probability of being tapes, the white rice are actually the eggs they lay. ...

Took them all together. If I remember correctly, the myrrh and frankincense were powdered and not essential oil based. Perhaps the essential oils of myrrh and frankincense could be stronger. Both myrrh and frankincense are resin based which I think could build up in the system, meaning I would not take them for longer periods of time.

Unfortunately, there are no solid answers to some of these problems. Meaning that there is a lot of biodiversity in the pathogen world, so we can expect the unexpected. In these situations, it is better to use broad treatment approaches. Typically, immune system dysfunction occurs to infectious activity.   [End]

When I see the fibers, I am thinking of Morgellon’s. Just an educated guess. I will throw this out.

Anxiety can come from the immune reaction. There are a number of bugs that can inhabit the gut, could be parasites, bacteria or yeast.

The gut can be a breeding ground for a number of infections including parasitic worms, parasitic protozoa, rogue bacteria, fungal/yeast and viruses. As Matt said, testing is very hit or miss, many choose to do a protocol of trial and error. Klebsiella is a gram negative bacteria. Gram negatives are typically more difficult to get rid of than gram positives, this is due to a double membrane which makes antibiotic penetration more difficult. Not all natural or pharma drugs work on gram negatives, so keep that in mind. They (gram negative) can also show signs of resistance. A very goo ...

People have reported ”white rice” in their stools which could be a sign of tapes. The eggs are visible, where other parasites eggs are not (roundworms or nematodes). Image search tapeworm eggs and see if that matches.   [End]

You might want to take a look at images on a search engine of both and see if they match. There are many varieties of each parasite. Typically, roundworm are cylindrical and have tapers on the ends.

Getting a clear diagnosis would help, for instance, have you seen a neurologist or brain scan? If I suspected parasites, I would tend to want pharmaceuticals. You should look at mattk3 and ICU posts. Ivermectin is a broad spectrum killer and sometimes this is used with other meds. It is possible that there could be some other type of infection such as bacterial, viral etc. mattk3 posts: https://www.curezone.org/forums/s.asp?f=762&c=0&ob=d&m=mattk3 icu posts: https://www.curezone.org/forums/s.asp?f=762&c=0&ob=d&m=ICU   [End]

I have a few thousand hours in studying infections and can reasonable tell you that not all infections are created equal.

One does not need 60k pictures to identify this as a nematode (not a crack on you btw but on the ”medical system”). Nematodes share the same cylindrical shape -you can see that in the first row. You can also see the appendages in the first row. You have to understand how they diagnose a parasite infection which may explain some of the frustration. Typically, they look for the ova which is the egg and they do this since adults look similar where the ova has distinctive shapes, sizes, colors etc. Ova can only be seen under the microscope unless it is tapeworms which the eggs can be seen with ...

People waste a lot of time going to doctors who are basically clueless about parasites. Parasites come in many classes but this would be a nematode or possibly tape, though with tapes you usually see ”white rice” in the stool which is the actually eggs (these are the only eggs that can be seen with the naked eye). Best guess (and I underline guess) is that it could be schistosoma due to the unique shape of them. Do a google image search and see if that matches.

Parasite testing is very hit or miss, so quite possible that the test was a false negative. The classification would be nematodes which helps narrow things down. Prescriptions that could help would be Vermox or albendazole. Myrrh, boswellia, neem and enteric coated oil of oregano might help (these did the trick for me).
