Talk to experienced stomach expert online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Your symptoms may be more due to ascariasis.
You can try tab ivermectin 0.2mg/kg orally once.
Also check for liver function tests,serum amylase and lipase.
I suggest you to undergo a endoscopy/colonoscopy.

Hello There.
I can understand your concern.
when was this stool test done and when was the diagnosis established.
if it was done 4 months back and still you think after all these medicines you have worm infestation, then you may be wrong.
it could be something else.
you have loose stools , which could be due to even IBS.
kindly consult a gastroenterologist near you for further evaluation and management.
BEST REGARDS,
Dr. Anil kumar jain.
