Blastocystis si bogus, I ruined my life trying to treat, and not finding out until after 10 months that it was EH all along. read the previous posts; go see Dr. cahill. Believe no one who says that Blastocystis causes disease.

yes go see Cahill....if u not can find doctor close by expert on parasites that do mucus scrapings and study them fresh in own lab...

make sure u not have taken any Antibiotics or herb medicine for at least some weeks before u go to see him...Also make sure you have done non "stupid" flushes, all this is described in best books to interfere with diagnostics of Histolytica (reduce chance of finding it even if one should have it)

Even the often arrogant and clearly unkowledgable gastro doctors ignore this when they think they are looking for histolytica with colonscopy...No medicines to wash out colon should have been taken in the weeks before proper mucus scrapings for Histolytica. This is known by a series of experts on histolytic, not all of them practice in clinic, but they know, it is in the best books, ignored by every idiot doctor out there.....

Chaill is the only doctor I met following the diagnostic methods the books tells one should follow, and yes he even wrote one of the best books himself, but the few other world experts says exactly same as him (some of them do not practice anymore)....

Go see Cahill!! I wish I heard of him years earlier myself....a wonderful person, effective and the best at finding parasites in gastro, and yes some of them that indirectly and directly can cause havoc on whole body, like Histolytica.

Forget blastocysctis, it is non pathogen in people with normal immune system...go see Cahill, find out if you have a real pathogen parasites..

do not trust anyone but the best!!! but yes make sure you do not take medications or natural protocols for several weeks before you go there, you do not want to have reduced parasite load, or made arasites hide even deeper in bowel wall so you reduce chances of even the best diagnostician finding them...

Thanks for responding! I have an appointment with the infectious disease control department tomorrow and will ask them to do a mucus swab and to check for histolytica. If they won't, I'll go see Caihill. Thanks again, Brenda

Brenda, for the sake of others, please tell us your exact symptoms?
