Chilomasticmesnil Parasite

[kenny999]

A friend of mine has just been diagnosed with having this Parasite as a guest, his doctor said he has never heard of it being in Asia, he has been very bad mainly going to the toilet many many times during the day and night, hopefully now he can get rid of it...

[FBN]

Probably Chilomastix mesnili ; this organism is not considered to be pathogenic (causing disease) except perhaps in children and is thought to be a normal inhabitant of the lower gut.

In this case, perhaps as a result of flooding, there is contamination of water with animal fecal material, and perhaps the bug has grown more bold...

Similar to Giardia; perhaps a misdiagnosis?

Treatment would be the same anyway..
