Why Won’t My MS Doctor Treat Parasites?

 

Even though there is overwhelming scientific evidence that MS is an infectious disease caused by parasites, most doctors don’t believe parasites can cause multiple sclerosis and don’t believe that we could have parasites. They also lack the skills to recognize the symptoms of parasites and to treat them.

This becomes a huge challenge for MS patients, as it is difficult if not impossible for them to find a doctor that will help them treat the parasites effectively.

In this post, I will explain why our healthcare system has become so ill equipped to help MS patients recover from what is causing MS (a parasitic infestation), how to find the right practitioner, how to ask for help and what research would be helpful to share with your doctor.

 

 

The Current State of Our Health Care System

Our current health care system has become very complex, specialized and compartmentalized. There are now hundreds of medical specialists and sub specialists who have expertise in one type of medicine. Some examples include general practice (family physician), paediatrics, allergists, cardiologists, dermatologists, endocrinologists, oncologists, gastroenterologists and the list goes on.

Big Pharma has greatly influenced what medical schools teach our doctors as they pour millions of dollars into funding them. They fund courses, research projects and publish textbooks.[i][ii][iii]

Pharmaceutical companies compensate doctors who promote their expensive disease modifying MS drugs, some of which can cost over $100,000 per year per MS drug.

Global News reported that big Pharma paid 151 million to doctors and hospitals in 2017 to 2018, but they didn’t know who was paid or for what purpose. [iv]

Over 2500 physicians have received at least $500, 000 each from drug makers and medical device companies in just the five years prior to 2019, but more than 700 of those doctors received at least $1 million in compensation.[v]

In 2021, the journal Neurology reported that a recent study of Medicare payments found “that over a five-year period, the payments for medications prescribed to people with neurologic conditions like multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s disease and epilepsy increased by 50% while the number of claims for these prescription medications only rose by only 8%.”[vi]

Essentially, many of our physicians today have unknowingly become drug specialists not healthcare professionals. Most of their training focuses on learning how to observe symptoms, give a disease label based on the symptoms and then prescribe one or more drugs or medical devices for the disease label.

Doctors have invested tens of thousands of dollars to become a medical professional and have been programmed over many years to believe that they are an expert in their field, that they have access to the best treatments available, and that if there were better options, they would know about them.

Unfortunately, the research they are exposed to and the information they are taught is heavily biased and often false, but they are not aware of this. Many of them honestly think they are serving their patient with the best and most current information and treatments.

They start a practice, have significant overhead and a busy schedule. Even if they wanted to, most feel that they don’t have the time or bandwidth to venture outside of their expertise. They also trust that their medical association and governmental health authorities will help them to stay up to date on the latest and best treatments available.

Especially since COVID arrived, there are a growing number of physicians who have become disillusioned with their practice, and are searching for a more holistic approach to healthcare. This is true more so for the general practitioners and not the specialized physicians.

It’s important to understand the mindset of our physicians. There is no point in trying to convince them or argue with them. It’s much better to seek out a physician that is more open to an integrative approach and then provide them with the rational of why you feel you have parasites and how they might help you.

Furthermore, medical training has also taught our doctors that parasites are only an issue in underdeveloped countries and that you can only become infected with them if you travel. If we are insistent that we have parasites, they might run a stool test which will usually come back as false negative. We do not have a good test for parasites at this time.

How to find the right practitioner and what you need

General practitioners are generally more receptive to supporting patients in treating parasites than a neurologist would be.

Ask a family member, friend or co-worker if they know of a general practitioner who is taking new patients and is open to integrative or holistic health.

Check the FLCCC website for doctors who do telemedicine and treat COVID. You may find a doctor in your area  who is open to supporting you. You could email or call their office.

How to communicate with practitioners

You’ll have more success if you ask questions to get a sense of whether they will be open to supporting you or not. If you get a lot of resistance at the start of the conversation, thank them for their time and move on.

Questions you could ask to start a conversation:

• Are you following the large and ever-growing body of research studying the microbiome in those with MS and how the microbiome is different in MS patients versus healthy people?
• Have you heard of the concept that MS could be caused by infections… possibly parasites?
• Do you feel MS could be caused by infections?
• Is it true that parasites cause disease?
• Is it possible to get parasites in the country I live in? … even if have not traveled?
• Are you aware that the CDC states that there are human parasites in North America?
• I have been studying the research and I would like to explore this to see if parasites are causing my MS symptoms. Would you support me in this?

There are Real Solutions for MS Today!

To restore health, we must focus on treating the cause of inflammation, which are parasites. First, identify the enemy (parasites), then support the body and treat the parasites while following a holistic approach. When parasitic infections are treated effectively, we can overcome inflammation or disease.

If you’re frustrated with the fact that our standard of care STILL doesn’t offer a real solution for treating MS, then click on the link below to watch Pam Bartha’s free masterclass training and discover REAL solutions that have allow Pam and many others to live free from MS symptoms.
