Toxoplasmosis Possible Medication, Other Considerations

I am attempting to write a long blog post putting together all the information i gathered and how i came to the conclusion, but i will start with the conclusion and write the other stuff later. I am convinced now that this is a problem much bigger than modern medicines came to recognize so far, if not the biggest. Misunderstood, mistreated, ignored, confounded with many other separate illnesses.

I believe right now that most antihistamine medication, not only Zyrtec, many other medicines, like antiparasitic drugs, antibiotics, CYP3 enzyme blockers, are effective against T Gondii, mostly because of the complex ways T Gondii interferes with its hosts, metabolism, mimic in many aspects of its physiology etc.. But antihistamines are the cheapest, most available and have least side effects. I took this morning a generic Claritin and felt the way i expected after taking Zyrtec which is head of the list (of medications that need to be studied for treatment options) on an article linked above. I don't know if it was on the list of screen compounds by that team. I read on another site, a medicine similar to Benadryl does the same but nothing about Benadryl itself.

And now a very interesting short story about Benadryl.

It is no secret that i had several acute infections episodes over the years, mostly after i came to the US when now i believe i was exposed intensively (more than possible to any random source), intentionally, though it is possibly not knowingly, by some people who include this type of exposures in their training, rituals, name it.

I read today again about the link between the so called schizofrenia (a very unfortunate semantic choice) and the infection with T Gondii.

In 2002 i had an episode similar to the current one. Don't know exact the source, though i know i once let a cat inside and fed it. Most likely, again, laundry done in the nearby building. In Vancouver, in December 1995 - June 1996 i lived next to laundry room and it was there i got the first time in a mental  hospital.

Back then (2002) i befriended a guy from the church, David who looked exactly like Tom Cruise would had if he gained some pounds. (I found out by chance a few years later that Tom Cruise did gain some weight for a movie in that period). So i went to his place, complained about symptoms wich unlike now, included insomnia, because of anxiety and high from the parasite, and probably actions unrecognized as such by the neighbors, and he, a bit ceremonially, handed me a few pills of benadryl, which i took, he used the word "allergies" in a very strange way, with a sad/sarcastic smile on his face, i went back home, i took some, gave Angela too and in a day or so my symptoms became acceptable. It was the first time when i "beat the disease" that is i got away without hospitalisation. I didn't like it though cause it was making me drowsy and the taste it left in my mouth, and then i tried different allergy pills, i think i stopped at Claritin, mostly for my nasal congestion. But of course i abandoned everything after i felt better and forgot about the whole thing. And in December, i got sick again, after a gastroscopy during which i got two broken ribs (they did it under light sedation i guess), in September, i got back to the mental ward where i was treated by dr. Harrison Ford and his assistant, Carrie Fisher, etc..

But did you know that modern antipsychotic medicine were discovered by chance and were initially used for allergies? Could it be they are neither of both but actually suppress the T Gondii which gives all the symptoms?

Another article i ran into was about how Toxoplasmosis contribute to the symptoms and outcome of sepsis, a disease that can be deadly when you develop what they call a sepsis shock, which is similar to anaphylactic shock (sudden drop in blood pressure) and it may start in the peritoneum.

Also figured that cats host the parasite more than other animals because the abundance of linoleic acid in their intestines, because of lack of an enzyme that breaks it down in all the other animals, where the parasites can multiply sexually.
