There is cross reaction between serology test for strongyloides and filarial infection or infection due to soil-transmitted helminths. However, if the diagnosis is based clinical findings and serology test, it should be accurate. Treatment with Ivermectin alone is enough, especially with 2 doses in 10 days apart. Some doctors use both meds but Albendazole should be given at least 3 days.

Presence of antibodies to a parasite is not diagnostic of parasite infestation. You need to have your stool examined to ascertain if you have any parasites or parasite eggs. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines.
