  • Flukes and Pancreas

    From Mike Dippel@999:1/1 to All on Sun Nov 23 14:53:58 2025
    I was waiting in line at a Walgreens today to pick up a prescription, and out of the blue a
    gentleman mentioned flukes and the pancreas. Me being me, I decided to Google it
    right away.

    Google's AI gave the following: "Flukes can affect the pancreas through parasitic
    infections, such as Eurytrema and Clonorchis sinensis, which can infest the pancreatic
    ducts.

    This parasitic infestation can lead to pancreatitis, inflammation, and other gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea or abdominal pain. While flukes most commonly
    infect the liver and bile ducts, they can migrate to ectopic sites like the pancreas."

    In short, he said that getting rid of these parasites can cure Diabetes. Not sure if this is
    true or not, but it is worth looking into. Currently I am getting once a month infusions
    of small doses of insulin to try and get the pancreas working again.
