Frage schreibt Horow. was in seinen Buch über Parasiten was?

Nein, Parasiten sind nicht wirklich sein Thema, aber er erwähnt sie und schreibt, daß man auf jeden Fall auch an Parasiten denken muß, vor allem, wenn Pateinten nicht besser werden und /oder anhaltende Symptome haben. Auf S.469 (s.u.) zählt er auf, mit welchen Mittel er behandelt, aber keine spezifischen Protokolle.

Hier grob das Inhaltsverzeichnis (Horrowitz Why Can’t I Get Better?)

S.396 Common parasitic infections include giardiasis, amebiasis, cryptosporidium, hookworm, pinworm, roundworm (including filariasis), and strongyloides. We have found that certain patients with resistant symptoms of MSIDS improved once intestinal parasites were discovered and treated. These infections are all treated differently and, unfortunately, testing for many of these parasites may be unreliable, as is the case with testing for Lyme disease and associated co-infections. It is therefore important that we understand the limitations of standard gastrointestinal testing and examine other methods for determining the parameters of gastrointestinal health.

S.397 Parasites: We need to check MSIDS patients for intestinal parasites if they suffer from resistant symptoms despite standard treatment protocols. These parasites can increase symptoms of Lyme-MSIDS, and often go undetected. The majority of our patients are now co-infected with babesia, a blood-borne parasite, and Babesia can suppress the immune system allowing other parasitic infections to emerge. Parasites can also cause GI symptoms similar to yeast overgrowth … confusing the clinical picture. They can be difficult to pick up on standard ova and parasite testing, and we have found the presence of hidden parasites on CDSA testing from specialized laboratories when local laboratories were negative.

S.469 Regimens including biltricide, ivermectin, pyrantel pamoate (PinX), and Alinia have been effective in certain patients with not only gastrointestinal symptoms, but also fatigue, headaches, and myalgias resistant to classical tick-borne therapy. Dosing for these regimens is based on the patient’s body weight.
