Re: Help identifying egg shaped things found in stool

One possibility is tapeworm. These eggs are the only visible eggs from worms. People report seeing "white rice". Keep in mind that this is only a guess. Also, parasite testing is very hit or miss, there are many false negatives. The range of parasites is big, meaning that you could have a parasite that does not match up with the lab guide books, therefore if they cannot match it up with known parasites then you get a negative.
