Hi , This is Desiree 34 from India, for the last 1 month Ive been having terrible cramping in my stomach , sometimes immediately after passing a stool and sometimes after 2-3 hrs after passing a stool. My stool report shows Giardia Cyst present and pus cells 5 - 6... what does that mean ?
Hello have gone through your question and understand your concern. The symptoms of abdominal pain and stool culture showing pus cells along with Guardian cyst is suggestive of Guardians. Guardian Zambia is a parasite just like intestinal worms, it transmitted by pectoral route through human fecal contaminated water, food, oral-anal sex. The symptoms of abdominal discomfort, fatty, foul-smelling diarrhea and malabsorption of nutrients experienced once the parasite lodges the human intestine. Kindly, visit a doctor with your stool culture reports as Guardians need treatment with antibiotic like metronidazole and is not self limiting like most viral diarrhea seen often.
