The duration of my infection is critical as treating it becomes more difficult the longer it lasts. When Toxoplasma gondii detects a threat, it retreats and forms cysts or biofilms to hide. Factors such as my immune system, medications, and supplements can trigger this hiding behavior. Unfortunately, there is no known medication that can eliminate these cysts. While concealed in a cyst, the parasite can reproduce silently without causing symptoms. However, if my immune system weakens, the toxoplasma parasite emerges from hiding. It invades various body parts, including the brain, muscle, fat, nervous system, eyes, and organs.
