Hi, I've been having digestive issues for about 3 weeks now, mostly leading to constipation and a very uncomfortable pressure in my lower left colon. I've seen multiple doctors and am currently scheduled for an appointment with a specialist in April.
Today I went to the doctor about odd objects in my stool, he ended up prescribing me a medicine to counter parasitic worms.
I did not however bring him a stool sample so he could not have been certain that this is my problem. I just took a stool sample and will not be going to see a doctor again for at least another week to see how the medicine work, however I am worried that I might be suffering from something more serious.
I have taken a picture of the objects and am hoping that someone can identify them and tell me what it is.
The picture: http://i.imgur.com/xqC15.jpg (yes its kind of gross).
Are these body parts of the parasitic worm or is this something else?
Please advice! Thank you
