Cheyanne---Do you know of any other causes of Giardia?A few years ago,I had diarreah and anything that I ate would go right thru me.I was hospitalised and the tests showed Giardia.My Dr.
told me that it is usually gotten from drinking water when camping,or drinking water that is contaminated,I haven't been camping in over 25yrs. & have our own well.My wife had our well water tested& it was fine.Just to be sure,when I make concentrated Orange Juice or Crystal Lite,powdered Gatorade,etc.,I still use bottled spring water that my wife gets in
jugs from the grocery store!It hasn't acted up since but scared me
to death. Irish
