Immunological techniques present the advantages of being applicable during all periods of the disease, but fundamentally during the invasive or acute period, as well as to other situations in which coprological techniques may present problems. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Diarrhea

  There were 2 cases of parasitic infection: Entamoeba histolytica in an asymptomatic 6-year-old and Giardia intestinalis in a 7-year-old with diarrhea. In neither case was there any secondary spread. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  The symptoms are typically, watery diarrhea, abdominal cramping, bloating and alternating periods of constipation. Symptoms generally begin a week or so after ingestion of the contaminated item and typically last for several weeks. [dhhr.wv.gov]

  The CDC says the infection can make "healthy people sick for up to three weeks with watery diarrhea, stomach cramps, nausea, or vomiting, and can lead to dehydration." [aol.com]

  However, extreme cases may cause weight loss, dehydration from chronic diarrhea, symptoms which mimic pneumonia, anemia, fatigue, Lyme disease from ticks, Malaria from mosquitoes, or a host of uncomfortable bowel syndromes. [medicalook.com]

  Here are some of the common parasitic disease symptoms: 2 Itching, redness and irritation around the site of infection Diarrhea Gas Upset stomach Greasy stools Dehydration Stomach cramps Swollen lymph nodes Muscle aches and pains Most parasitic diseases [curesdecoded.com]

Since malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum can be severe and cause complications, prompt workup and assessment of parasite burden in the blood is warranted. [clinicaladvisor.com]
