I have an unknown autoimmune disease not sufficiently understood by the medical establishment (or anyone), and not well treated by more common treatments. The helminth thing (hookworm) didn't seem that risky seeing as how 50%+ of the developing world carries them asymptomatically, and they are trivial to expel.
Did it improve your condition? What was the strangest part? What precautions did you take and how did you record your data? How did you control for other things like mood, placebo effect etc.

Sometimes I would have bizarre thoughts about infecting other people against their will, as though the worms had migrated from my colon up through my body and into my brain and were controlling my thoughts in order to further spread their infection. But for all I know that could have just been a placebo effect. /s
