A member asked:

Is it possible that i have a parasite? i have mult. sudden food allergies, low pain pain, teeth grinding, migraines, nausea, & numbness on left side

Anything's possible.: Milk, eggs, wheat, soybeans, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts ; peanuts cause 90 % of food allergic reactions. Up to 15 million americans suffer from food allergies ; need to avoid not only certain foods but any ingredient that contains proteins derived from them. In some cases, anaphylaxis can result. To blame your multiple, possibly unrelated, symptoms on a parasite seems unlikely however.

Possible: But not probable. You report numerous symptoms that may or may not be related. Have you traveled recently to areas where parasites are prevalent? Have you had a recent physical? Have you recently changed meds/supplements/vitamins? Have you been evaluated by an allergist, a neurologist? Have you seen your Dentist about your tooth grinding. Please start diagnostic process with your PCP.
