Does anyone have blastocystis?

I have had Blastocystis hominis show positive in stool samples every time. Flagyl, or metrinodazole used to treat blastocystis and H.pylori, gets rid of my bad breath. I still tested positive for blastocystis after finishing the antibiotics, and am doing more.

Do you know how do people get this disease?
Never heard of it.

Its a parasite just like worms, but its microscopic and sticks to the intestinal wall. Scientists are unsure wether it causes any symptoms or not unless there is a complete overgrowth. I have read that most people already have blastocystis.

Lets say somebody scratched there but and then handled your food, then you could probably get it.
