How To NOT Live In The Toilet When You Have Stomach Parasites: My Bout With Travellers Diarrhea And How I Somehow Managed To Get Well Again (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781095299890)

I spent a bit of time travelling around China and Vietnam and just before I was due to come home I ended up with a bout of diarrhea. I should have know something was wrong as this was not the usual bout of food poisoning. Food poisoning is usually explosive diarrhea that comes on fast then vanishes. Causes a few problems for a few days then it is back to normal. What I had was dysentery style diarrhea that was very awkward, as I had to walk around with a wad of toilet paper stuffed up my butt to catch the drops. I couldn't fart. Anyway that was all I had, no cramps, no nausea, and no pain. I felt OK, I just needed a toilet in very close proximity. I just didn't eat if I had to go out. I used to drink heaps as I needed too as I was in the tropics in summer and I had dysentery. This went on for over a week and I used to take some pills they gave me in China, but there was no change. If I had felt really terrible I would have gone to the doctor, but I didn't think there was any reason too. Anyway I broke my golden rule which is - always go to the doctor in the country you are sick in, as they would most likely know what is wrong with you. When you get back to your home country the doctors usually have absolutely no clue what is wrong with you. I got amoebic dysentery while in the sahara and I went to the doctor there and they knew exactly what was wrong with me and they gave me the correct medicine. Where as one of my friends got very sick in Russia in Leningrad, then he went home and no one knew what was wrong with him. About 2 years later I caught up with him and I told him to go to a Russian doctor. He did and the doctor knew exactly what was wrong with him and gave him the correct medicine and then he was OK. So get checked before you fly home.It Took Me Years To Work This OutIf you have terrible diarrhea that will not go away try this and see if it makes your life bearable. Crush and dice 4 large cloves of garlic, preferable organic, and leave it sit for over 20 minutes then eat it raw with 1000 to 1500mgs of Vitamin C every night just before you go to bed, so it sits in your stomach all night. This is to kill the beast.As with all things start in moderation and work up, like start with one clove of garlic and work your way up. I was eating about half a bulb at one stage. When you eat it at night by the time you go to work you do not smell so bad. DO NOT eat garlic before going to work or you will stink the office out.Also during the day sprinkle one tablespoon of tumeric on some food and eat it, this is to stop inflammation. Before you eat lunch or dinner drink a tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar, this is to try and get your stomach acid up as you need stomach acid to kill the beast.There are a lot of other things you can try and I recommend you try them as everybody is different and they could work better for you. Vitamin C and crushed garlic worked for me, I hope it works for you too.
