Testing for yeast

[lfran]

Does anyone know if a standard O & P test will show if there is yeast? A past O & P for my son said "few yeast present". This time, there was no mention of yeast at all. I can't figure out if that means he has no yeast overgrowth, or if they just didn't test. Can't get a clear answer from the lab.

 

Thanks!

I wouldn't have expected o&p test to look for yeast. By the way, the almost always show negative, despite the fact that everybody, 100%, has parasites. The tests are a waste of time. If someone has lyme, dealing with parasites/worms and yeast is part of what can be done to improve treatment.
