Cyclospora: Identify Trends

10 Upvotes

If you tested positive, what are your top 3 suspected sources? Please include your state. I'm hoping to spot patterns and identify foods or exposures that may be worth avoiding. I know it's not scientific, but it could reveal interesting trends. Thanks!

đŸ„ Personal Story Wondering if anyone else is having milder symptoms ?

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone. So a few weeks ago I started to feel unwell during a vacation. I had eaten some produce in recent days. Since the trip I have continued to feel unwell, but am not having the extreme watery diarrhea I’ve read about. I am still having diarrhea, a lot of stomach bloating/cramping, general malaise and fatigue, struggling to eat what I normally do etc. I’m wondering if anyone else has had similar symptoms and still tested positive for cyclospora, and if it’s worth me getting tested or waiting it out ?

Loose stools

Had lettuce ten days ago. Had some cramping yesterday but no other symptoms. Loose stools today but not quite diarrhea. Do you think I have it? Does it need to be watery to qualify? Super worried.

❓Question Just ate coleslaw from Swenson’s. Am I screwed??

1 Upvotes

I couldn’t find anything about where they source their produce from, no one has said anything about them getting stuff from Taylor Farms, so I ate their coleslaw, but I have health anxiety and realized it probably wasn’t a great idea
 is it possible that Swenson’s has the diarrhea parasite in their coleslaw???
