I don't think many labs can pick them up. The labs are not sensitive enough. Hopefully, you'll get more feedback!

Do a search here for parasite threads. You will find all you need to know. Most people have parasites, some are good, some are not good. Labs usually do not find them. Usually doctors who do ART or kinesiology/muscle testing can find them. But please do some reading here, NEMOM.

Take care.

I'm currently doing testing with Genova Diagnostics.

If you search Genova here you will find some info - I did that yesterday.

In years past I assumed I had parasites, treated them and yes, I had them.

Because my (now deceased) husband never really treated them (only three times in five or six years) I'm sure I'm reinfected so my new LD is doing the testing.

While he was battling cancer they found "parasite ova" in some of his leg lesions - the ID dr. was asking about foreing travel, etc, etc. that dr. did a stool test and found nothing.
