How do you know if you have parasites? Trace
Posted by Jin (Member # 11735) on :
Dear Trace, Parasites are difficult to test for. Stool tests can be done, but miss a lot. Doctor's Data is supposed to be a good lab, and my holistic physician uses it. Symptoms depend on what kind there are, and where they are located in the body. With tapeworm, gastric symptoms are common. Abdominal pain, bloating, constipation and diarrhea are typical if the offending creature is in the digestive tract.
Sincerely, Jin

Metametrix stool test is supposed to be the most accurate for parasites now

My LLmD is having me do one through Jetti Katz in NYC. He says it's one of the best. Better be for $400.
