Intestinal Parasites - Looking for information!
Hello
After getting sick when traveling, say with diarrhea or fever etc. from the foods, air or water. What caused it might still be hanging around after it’s cleared up with no apparent after affect. And, I’m now unwittingly its Host, and might never get rid of the parasites unless I do something about it after arriving home.
Appreciate any information, thanks.

Re: Intestinal Parasites - Looking for information!
In my experience, parasites do continue to cause problems, even though you may feel better for awhile. If you are not experiencing any symptoms, then I wouldn't worry about it. If you want to be sure, however, take a stool sample to your local lab for testing. (You may need a doctor's prescription for this. Here in Mexico, we can go directly to the lab.)

Absolutely deal with it. Parasites in general don't just go away, the symptoms do. You will cause a lot of long term problems for yourself it you just ignore it.
