Re:Back from Mexico vacation, sick now for 2 weeks

[Guest guest]

Diarhyea for over a week. Sick at first with night chills and low grade night

fevor now just " the runs " . Dr. supposedly did cultures and all came back

negative. Sounds to me like beaver fever (giardia) but I'm not the DR. This is

my husband who is sick. This has been going on way too long. He returned March

11 and has been sick since. He had the flu a week before he went so at first I

thought he had pneumonia. But Dr. said that was just a coincidence, it was

something he picked up in Mexico. Any suggestions? I started him on some

probiotics ( the dog's actually) as I saw something on PubMed that probiotics

might be a cure for giardia. I did search your database and files but came

across nothing for intestinal problems. Any suggestions would be greatly

appreciated. Thank you.

If it's any comfort to you, I was in Mexico the last week of Feb.

and a " bug " like that was going around. My friend was sick for a good

2 weeks and I came home with a mild version of it. What they were

doing for it was drinking something like Pedialyte to keep hydrated as

well as water and Camomile tea as well as taking a probiotic. When I

got home I did same and also, took oregano oil and did a parasite clease.

What kind of cultures did the Dr. take?

Use bifidus for diarrhea. (Not acidophilus) But make sure you get

some that will actually work - most I have tested do not. If you stir

the powder into milk, it should curdle the milk in a short time.

Natren is a brand of probiotics I use and trust - good quality in

production and storage, though not cheap. Should be kept

refrigerated, obviously, throughout shipping and storage though.
