Hey flukeman, I am infected with the liver fluke you are writing about. I am dispelling it and have been for a few weeks. Just read your article, thank you so much for valuable information. My question, which you might answer, is about their reproduction cycle. How do they recreate within my body? How long does a fluke live before it dies naturally? And how big is normally the population within my body? Can a fluke even recreate within the host or does it not? If it does, how long time before it is fully grown and can start reproducing? I also realise reading your article that if I am unlucky my veggies bought from farmers market could be contaminated and I might get reinfected every day!
