Dear michelle,
i suffer from heavy allergic reactions since a long time aswell. Suffering from allergies since i am 12 years. I wanted to ask you: Did you ever feel that incredible dizziness after eating something? And does youre joint pain worsen then after eating? I suffer exactly from that experience.... hard to describe. When i eat something during the break in my work... i cant concentrate for the next half hour. Its really awful. now i am taking the hookworm and i hope it slowly will get better. Maybe you have time to answer. Thanks and all the best to you! Marty

Hi Marty!

My apologies for not answering sooner. Yes, I used to have a lot of dizziness after eating, and chronic joint pain especially in the hips and shoulders. I still do get that foggy-headed tired feeling every so often after eating, but the reactions are much reduced and very tolerable. I have no more joint pain at all.

I still avoid the foods I was most allergic to because having hookworms has definitely *not* been a silver bullet, but things are getting better all the time. Thursday will be my 1 year wormiversary and I’m pretty sure that I haven’t hit the peak of my improvement, yet.

Congratulations on getting your worms! Try to keep a positive attitude and have faith that they will work. It can take a *really long time* compared to modern medicine, but I think the results are worth it. Remember to take good care of yourself while you wait!
