Re: Parasite cleanse question, 2 year old - UPDATE

March 25, 2011

I just wanted to report that since we stopped the parasite cleanse yesterday,

our son has been a totally different person!! I actually think there is a good

possibility that the Artmesia was just too strong for him. He slept all night

for the first time in weeks (although he DID wake at the crack of dawn, but

still better), he napped perfectly fine, his sensory is nowhere near where it

had been the past weeks, he didn't have one potty accident, he was engaged,

active, silly, and HAPPY today....even WITH his cold! I am SO SO SO SO

relieved!!!

> Our two year old was tested with the Metametrix DNA stool test and we found

Dientameoba Fragilis, a protazoan parasite. So we started a parasite cleanse

with the last full moon (four days before) and we are planning to continue it

until about four days after this full moon.

> Since starting this cleanse, our two year old has been VERY irritable and

sensory defensive. He's not normally a sensory child, like our 5 year old who

has sensory processing disorder. Would this normally last the entire month like

this or do you think it's just coincidental timing and maybe he's becoming more

sensory...he's two and a half, which is about when our five and a half year old

started showing signs too, but it wasn't so sudden, like this. He's never been

vaccinated and he's never been a sensory kid, but the sensory stuff clearly got

more intense with the cleanse. He's experiencing things like screaming over

wearing underpants when we first put them on, yelling, " TIGHT, TIGHT!! " and

crying. He eventually gets over it, but the battle initially is intense. I

just have to walk away from him. His shoes and his car seat straps get this

same response as well. I can't recall, if he had some of it just before the

cleanse or not though. If it did, it was nowhere near this bad, I do know that.

rid of, requiring longer periods of treatment. I just keep wondering why after

30 days of treatment, he would STILL be reacting so severely.

this bugger, or if we should go longer.
