I showed him the photos of my vascular rash, and the ones of my daughters that we started getting in the sun last year. Also about the kids on and off diarrhea. He agrees that it is pretty clear that some type of exposure has cause this (as does my local neurologist, and functional md).
He said there are some strange things that can happen from mold and not to rule that out.

I am terrified of taking this, but he said if we do have a parasite, it will not go away with out treatment and that people can have Giardia for years.
He also was curious about lyme and other tick born stuff that could have gotten us. I told him I did 3 weeks of doxycycline in the beginning when they thought it was lyme and that it had no effect. At this point I don't know what is left besides troubleshooting with drugs. I don't want to live life this way unless I have to.
Any and all advice or information is welcome.
