Discovered few days ago I have them. My son will be 2 end of January. Should I treat him. Treated everyone else and freaking out loads. Read loads of horror stories of people having them for years and ovex not working.

Yes, treat him. It’s no big deal really common.

I think the people who claim to have them ‘for years’ have health anxiety. I’ve never not had the first treatment work completely and I’m very lax about cleaning/washing. Treat everyone again in 2 weeks. It will be fine.

Did you go around cleaning all your light switches and cleaning all toys? I took a dose 3 days ago and its made itching worse
