Re: Help please! Looking for parasite doctor

The anti parasitic meds you took, should have resolved the problem, although, at the risk of being criticized, I would give longer duration of treatment; up to 6 weeks. Ascaris have developed some resistance to these meds over time mostly due to agricultural overuse.

You could be going through an adjustment period, where your immune system is still acting out. The crystals are caused by the break-down of eosinophils-the primary cellular defense against detected worms. They could be activated by exogenous antigen passing in your gut from food.
In other words, your body is still on alert.


The best way to detect worms in stool is NOT OVA!

Although this is an ideal way to make a confirmed diagnosis, I like to rely on the detection of worm poop. It is almost always detectable in a given stool sample of someone with infections with helminths.
