Parasite in the brain

[Single_Man]

Is it possible to have A parasite in your brain, but nowhere else in your body? How long would a parasite live inside a persons brain? How long after infection would it take for a the parasite to go from the intestine to the brain?

All test results have units associated with them.  For example, where I get my blood drawn, lymphocytes come in % and in K/uL.  If you get a copy of your test results, it will tell you what the units are.

The difference between bottled water and tap water is a couple of nutrients.  These nutrients do very very little in your body.  There are some places where entire communities only drink bottled water, because the tap water is not healthy.  There are all these rumors going out around that bottled water can cause all types of problems from cancer to kidney stones.  Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but I personally believe that these things are not true.

Also please explain why bottled water is not a sound reason for lowering the immune system.

units? It says 11 on the paper, but my doctor says its "2".

What are the units of your lymphocyte levels?  Also, I consider the theory that drinking bottled water lowers your lymphocytes, as absurd.

2. My lymphocyte levels are at 2. My BUN is also 2.

Exactly 1 month ago, my lymphocytes were at 15. That was approximately Another 1 month after i started drinking STRICTLY bottled water, for various reasons. i Think, and am very sure, that this is the cause of my low lymphocytes. i have since Stopped drinking bottled water. Im hoping ill see a rise in my levels when i get my full blood count redone. I dont know how long it will take to Undo, what ive done to myself, unknowingly. Its been said that bottled water, can suppress your bone marrow, which is where your lymphocytes are located, as far as im aware.

A low BUN, however, can simply be caused by drinking too much water.
