My 7 year old has tummy ache, reported a worm in poop this morning

by

Last week it was my 7 year old boy’s turn to have tummy ache problems.  He missed 2 days of school,  Thursday and Friday.  At first sign of tummy ache, I gave 1 teaspoon of Barefoot Herbalist dewormer in 1/4 cup of water every morning before breakfast.

His tummy ache symptoms would subside.  But I made the mistake Friday evening when I arrived just after he had a dinner of chicken arozcaldo (chicken and rice porridge), I got to taste a most wonderful avocado, the first good avocado of the season.  I got him interested and he got half an avocado and combined it with honey.  Immediately afterwards his tummy ache worsened again… bad food combination this time.

During the times he had tummy aches I would implement mono eating on my boy and that made him feel better.

One early morning at 3am when he felt hungry, his mom made the mistake of feeding him fish and rice.  Which he vomitted a few hours later.  3am is no time to feed anyone hard to digest things.  It is not the correct time for eating.

Since Friday every early morning my boy would wake me up at 4am to poop.  He comments that the dewormer was strong and it makes him poop.  This Monday morning at 4am he woke me up again to poop.  Before I washed him he said he saw 1 black worm about less than 1 inch long writhing fast in the toilet bowl.  I looked for it but he said the worm sank.

So after washing my boy I thought it was time for some deworming again.  This boy had taken humaworm for 30 days 2 years ago.  Last year he took barefoot herbalist dewormer for 30 days.  And we have barefoot dewormer as stand by for suspicious parasite related symptoms like these lately.  So around 6am I ordered another batch of dewormers from humaworm.com: 1 batch for myself and 1 batch for my boy.  It arrives in 7 days.

I would like to add that in my surfing for opinions on dewormers I found an insightful comment from Dr. Kenneth Sutter as he does not make dewormers, he merely uses them:

Humaworm is great stuff but 30 days is NOT enough. Do Barefoot’s DeWormer for the 90 days between of Humaworms protocol. Flush every two weeks. Stay on Humaworm every 90 days though it’s a little better at getting the parasites outside the digestive tract. In other words do them both.

That quote and idea applies to me. I think I’ll do that. I’m thinking about it. In the meantime I’m formulating my order for a new batch of dewormers plus other items from Barefoot.

My 5 year old boy who had tummy ache now cured and had gone to school today

by

My 5 year old boy started having his tummy ache last Monday morning and threw up empty fluid.  I think it was due to either bad food, maybe from the tiny oranges kyat kyat imported from China and / or that “cake” called “sansrival” that was given to him behind me and my wife’s back last Sunday afternoon and / or maybe it is because we ate out Saturday evening at a restaurant.  Maybe there is a parasite component to this upset stomach, maybe I passed it on to him as a week ago I myself had tummy aches.

What we did were these.  I gave him barefoot herbalist dewormer every morning for 4 straight days 1 teaspoon in 1/4 cup of water.  No food was given until he asked for it and we followed what he wanted.  I gave him Dr. Tam’s Miracle Tea for colon cleansing on the first day of the problem to flush out whatever it was bothering him… not much came out but his poop stinked real bad.  I ordered a temporary stop of his vitamins and supplements, the calcon 1 and 2 supplements, and the vitamin c, and the multivitamins of the anthroposophic doctor.  I witheld toothpaste, even if our toothpaste was non-flouride, and witheld soap and shampoo as well.

Our boy missed 3 days of school.  He went back this morning.  No more pain in his tummy and he seems to have a healthy appetite today.  And he was playing, running, jumping, swinging on a rope, and climbing the monkey bars in school.  All good signs that all is well.
