"Recently diagnosed with D. fragilis, had IBS-like symptoms for 20 years. Took medication twice, 6 months apart. First time did not clear the parasite and symptoms returned a week after finishing the medication. Second time, now free of IBS-like symptoms 2 weeks after finishing the medication."

"The doctors around in Israel are so late behind in acknowledging and understanding that Dientamoeba fragilis is a problem that I only discovered the pathogen by myself when I sent a stool sample to the qPCR lab in the United States. Otherwise, I wouldn't know about D.F. until now. Anyway, five years after... are too late to discover the ameba, and it's already become one with the intestine tissue :( Too late. We are suffering from an infection while alive. All the doctors keep quiet together against us. No great medication is available. Not enough research. Many years I didn't know what I had, and I have spent hundreds of thousands searching all by myself/on alternative medicine!"

"Had severe fatigue, etc., for 2 years. UK London Hospital for Tropical Medicine prescribed paromomycin (750 mg tid) for 10 days. Almost instant recovery. Problems: diagnosis (need test kit to stabilize protozoa) and treatment (only 1 effective drug is licensed for use in the UK (iodoquinol), but the professor at LHTM stated that he would not use it (side effects were very bad). Important to get the dose right, otherwise, the protozoa come back and are resistant to further treatment. Had been treated with metronidazole, and that rendered the parasite resistant to the cheap effective secnidazole (used in other countries)."
