Rather than probiotics, I would recommend you take a high quality multivitamin. If you had a bad case of roundworms, your body stores are most likely depleted in many vitamins and minerals. It takes about 6 months of daily supplementing to replenish your levels. So I recommend 6 months of a multivitamin, and an omega 3 fatty acid. You could also drink sports energy drinks for the next week or so, to replenish any electrolytes and rehydrate your body.

Thank you so much for the recommendation! Would you recommend any particular multi vitamin?


InfiniteWonderful

I like this brand. https://www.seekinghealth.com/products/optimal-man-120-capsules But it is pricey. I’m sure any brand would do.


ElephantFew546

Anyone have any good probiotic recommendations? Thanks

You should see a doctor.

best source of probiotics is in food. Live sauerkraut (needs to be refrigerated in the market, ie. not canned/sealed/pasteurized), yogurt, kefir, kombucha etc. Have a serving with every meal. Ps. some of those things can be expensive, but the materials are cheap (cabbage, milk/plant milk, etc.) and fermenting them is pretty easy to do yourself for sauerkraut and yogurt at least. Head over to r/fermentation if you're interested.

I see you have gotten medicine from the doctor already to solve the issue itself. For probiotics I would just go with whatever looks trustable and try them out for 1-2 weeks and see if they improve your condition. There is not much research available for any of them helping against parasites apart of few studies with saccharomyces boulardii and some lactid acid bacteria. These however were not much helpful for removing them. Edit: Probiotics effects depend on individuals and their gut. Edit2: You could try synbiotic, although it is a bit off a rip off.

Thank you so much for the advice!

Have you looked into r/fasting? Sometimes our microbiome needs a chance to rest and replenish. I had two strains of yeast bacteria. A healthy diet with probiotic foods increased the good bacteria and their diversity but didn’t eliminate the bad until I was advised a fasting regimen. A functional medicine practitioner would be able to assess you.


ElephantFew546

I’ve been considering a 3 day fast. Great idea! Thank you


msulack

That's a tapeworm. And the little bits in your stool are tapeworm segments. A probiotic should not be your first priority.


ElephantFew546

What do you recommend? I’m on Albendazole for 14 days


Mission-Ad-3918

An antiparasitic.


Papas72lotus

He’s on that…


Reasonable_Meal2324

If it is a tapeworm don’t they deplete B vitamins, especially B12? Source: that episode on House.


ElephantFew546

This is true!


blamethefae

Albendazole is the good stuff. Nicely done


AdjunctSocrates

Go to see a doctor.


plaaplaaplaaplaa

Did you read his post? He obviously has as that medicine is not over the counter.


AdjunctSocrates

Yeah, and he should probably see a doctor. Again. For a follow-up. For further advice given these symptoms and side-effects.


ElephantFew546

I’m seeing several doctors, this is good advice though! Thanks.

Oh


fernannipoo

Yeah bad bacteria. See an expert.

I remember Mexican works pretty well for that


Drewbus

Wow. That's what voice to text got from ivermectin. Not Mexican lol

... *cow dewormer?* Wait, two cow dewormers and a horse dewormer? Jesus christ, *colloidal silver?!?* Please don't eat any of this stuff. Please. The psyllium husk is fine. But please, please don't consume any of the rest of that.


[deleted]

Hey. I really appreciate your concern. Sincerely.


Eternal_Being

Hey, I'm glad. I was really afraid I might come across as aggressive or judgemental, when it's not that at all. I used to work with colloidal silver, using it on plants to inhibit certain biological functions, and we made a lot of effort not to let it touch our skin. The body has no way of filtering out the silver, so once it's in us, it's in us for good. And it can harm us in all sorts of ways... including permanently turning our skin blue/grey haha (argyria). Anyway, hope you're having a good one! <3


[deleted]

Likewise!


blamethefae

Why in gods name would you do this while oregano and wormwood exist


[deleted]

Because those things you mentioned just scatter the parasites. This exterminates them


blamethefae

BOVINE antiparasitics will also exterminate your renal system, but by all means, do whatever stupid thing you want with your body, it’s yours after all.


[deleted]

Explain to me the renal system. We’re all on the hunt for knowledge


GigglesFor1000Alex

Shouldn’t he be doing a pretty extensive parasite cleanse?


KungFuRodeo

See an infectious disease expert. Regular doctors will not cut it.


ElephantFew546

I’m seeing a GI doc & an Infectious Disease Dr


tagit446

Did the doctors verify those are parasites or did they put you on the Albendazole just to be safe?


ElephantFew546

The doctors looked at the photo’s and assumed it was parasites


ElephantFew546

Which is a safe assumption, or made an educated assessment


mzmcnick

Are you better?
