Round 1: Vials 1 & 2 of Giardia Lamblia Series Therapy by Deseret Biologicals

This treatment is NO JOKE. It is not for the faint of heart. Not to scare anyone off, but you really have to be mentally prepared to go into battle with this beast. I took Vial 1 and that first night really took me by surprise. I just did not image it would be that bad and definitely not that fast. I was struggling all night with cramps, nausea, acid reflux, and being in a ball with my heating pad. I think that night I got about 2 hours of sleep tops. That whole day following went the same way, I couldn't eat more than a bite or two of food max. I went to bed thinking it would be a better night, but much of the same. I had an episode in the morning that got very severe, so it's a bit of a roller coaster as far as when the symptoms came and went. By day 4 i finally got some much needed relief and my appetite came back. Unfortunately that was when I was due to take the second dose (vial 2). I took the dose in the evening and by 3am the symptoms were back full force. I am writing this now on day 5, and my stomach is like in a giant sheet cramp. I also am having really severe hunger pains. They are deep deep rolling cramps that feel like you have not eaten for days. Almost like when you feel so hungry that you will be sick. I get those pretty severe and nothing helps. Even if I can choke down some food that often times does not help either. Hunger pains are a very common symptom of Giardia so I think I can expect to be fighting that off for a good majority of it.

I will be keeping this blog up and updating every single vial as I go through the 60 day treatment. I take one vial every 3 days, and there may be instances where I push it out a 4th day due to symptoms being too severe. I certainly don't want to overdo it. So, this is the place where I will honestly talk about that. I want to stress that this is NOT to be negative. This is to be informative. A lot of people who want information about certain forms of treatment can not find it readily on the Internet. This treatment blog is meant to be very honest so that anyone who is interested in how this feels or what it does will know. I refuse to sugar coat the truth because that would be unfair and untrue. So, you will get the truth here no matter what. People should have the right to know what they are getting into.

Anyway, t
hank you for reading!

xoxo,
Christina
