See Parasites In Stool, Nose, In Saliva. Colonoscopy, Endoscope Normal. Sees Something Abnormal In Stools. Fatigue. Suggestions?

my daughter has problems with seeing parasites in her stool and even coming out of her nose and spitting up saliva and seeing , almost tiny fish like parasites. she explains they are similar to tinynew born fish just hatched like in fish tank. almost seeing eye and tail like creatures. She has had colonoscopy and endocope done in july and nothing can be seen by physicians. I dont think she is mental, her daughter also say they can see something abnormal in her stools tho culture has been done and nothing found. Could she have trichinosis?? Most doctors are poo pooing her, yet she suffers from extreme fatique, and seems hopelessly depressed over this condition.

Hi,

Since all her tests have come to be normal and physicians do not feel that she is suffering from a parasitic infestation, I suggest that in the best interests of your daughter, you should consult a psychiatrist. I have seen many patients with similar complaints who responded well to psychotropic medications. Another point in favor of this being a mental illness is that she sees parasites coming out of her nose as well, which is very unlikely even if there is parasitic infestation of bowels.

Best wishes.
