I've had a parasite test recently that came back negative, is your test more sensitive?

It's impossible to say if our test is more sensitive than one you've already had, but our lab uses the latest technology to detect parasites.

Without any information on which test you've had, it's impossible to say which test is more sensitive. Our tests are based on a method called qPCR, which is very sensitive. Specialized hospitals probably also use similar state of the art methods.

We test for several protozoic parasites and several parasitic worms (helminths). There is no such thing as 100% sensitivity in laboratory diagnostics, so there may be a small chance that your last test missed a parasite.

It's a good idea to look at what's going on in your microbiome too, because typical parasite symptoms can also be caused by some potentially pathogenic bacteria.
