I am going to be tested for parasites with Labcorp. I know that
these tests usually are not very reliable and often come back
with false negatives. Does anyone have any experience with
this lab and know of anything I could do to make the test
more accurate? I have been having diarrhea on and off since
last March. Should my stool sample be from just any stool or
should I use a sample from diarrhea?
Thanks for any information!

Good luck. I sent labcorp a giant worm and it came back negative. Even Dr. K says lab tests for parasites are poor.
