Neurocysticercosis
I was diagnosed with neurocysticercosis 4 years back.
I was actually prescribed a CT scan for a head injury but instead the report revealed that there was a pair of tiny calcific foci(1-2mm) seen in the left frontal lobe, representing sequela of granulomatous infections like TB or neurocysticercosis, the test done for TB was negative and it was concluded that I had neurocsyticercosis and stomach worms. But my doctor didn't give me any medication for it. I still observe segments of it in my stool.
Although I haven't faced any symptoms yet, but I feel afraid that it might become a very serious issue. Do you have any suggestions?
