Re: Please Help with Parasite Identification (photos included)


Oh, thank you! This is what I have, and upon searching Acanthocephala on google as suggested, I found more pictures. Look at the photo in this pdf article
http://faculty.uml.edu/rhochberg/hochberglab/Courses/Parasite/PDF%20Papers/Ac...


It looks like yours, and I have also passed similar things, especially like your second photo.

Strangely,all the articles say this is "rarely found in humans" yet we have here at least 3 people who found it themselves. I know that I have sent in samples to the lab, only to get back "no parasite." So no wonder the medical reseach is misinformed about the "rarity" of this species in humans.

Thank you so much for posting. I have been going a little bit crazy trying to find out what this is.
