Ive been feely awful lately and also itchy so I had a stool test and found I had a parasite which Im now treating with antibiotics and herbal medicine. I have heard that parasites can cause schizophrenia so its worth getting checked out.

Hi! Welcome to the forum! 
I have read that a specific parasite can cause schizophrenia (it’s called toxoplasmosis or something like that). It can happen to some.
Ive played piano a bit I just like the name

Which parasite did they find?
Typically, we like to leave inactive threads alone and just start a new thread instead. This is different than how some forums are run, but we do it this way because it frequently upsets users to have old topics revived when they are no longer relevant. It can also be frustrating to the person who revived the thread when they don’t get a reply, because the original poster is no longer active or no longer finds the topic relevant. Feel free to start a new thread on this topic.
Thanks,
