Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
You are suffering from colitis (intestine infection) due to protozoa (giardia lamblia).
This is indicated by presence of cysts of giardia lamblia,WBC in stool.
I suggest my patients to take medicines like metronidazole.
You should take adequate fluids.
Hope I have answered your question.
Take Care
