Re: Oxygen starvation
If you had a filarial roundworm, or filaria, you would have had a significant reaction.
This rules out Strongyloides, and likely Ascaris. There are lists of lung worm infections, I believe it is a short list to start with.
You may want to cross off 2 of what I seam to remember is a list of about 7 worms.
I think your next goal may be to get a good list. I seam to remember it was generated by a cardio pulmonary group in a Journal.
Toxo is also on the list, it is a bird
parasite that moves rapidly and cuts off oxygen fast.
I suspect you can rule that one out too, you would be in the hospital.
Meds for Toxo come from Europe.
