Suggest Remedy For Ringing Sensation In Ears And Tightness In Chest

default
Posted on Wed, 30 Sep 2015
Question: I had cyclical health problems for many years (I'm 58). I was convinced it was worms. Five years ago with home remedy I chased out literally toilet full of worms three times. All the symptoms stopped. Two years ago they have been returning and now full fledged again. Symptoms mostly at night. Ringing in ears, wave of electrical feelings all over my body, tightness in chest. My internist will not help me. Infectious Disease doctors will not see me. I've taken a couple rounds of Albendazole but this has not helped. Important to note in the 70's and 80's I was active homosexual and had over 500 contacts in New York City and San Francisco. I am inactive many years now though.

Brief Answer:
Symptoms are directly related to worm overload.

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.

I understand your concern.

The chest symptoms can be due to pulmonary eosinophilia or parasite migration through the lungs.

Many of your symptoms are related to worm overload.

It is very important that you get a complete stool examination for Ova and parasites along with Ultrasound abdomen.

Only after stool examination, an appropriate antiparasite agent should be chosen since you had relapses with Albendazole on many occasions.

Review with test results.

Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
