Noticed white, thread-like pieces, about 1-2 inches long in stool 5 days after taking anti-parasite med. parasites or maybe fiber?

Stool analysis: Unable to determine without a stool analysis and culture for ova and parasites. See your physician. Certainly is possible it is undigested fiber strands.
