Hello,
It is suggestive of amoebiasis. Based on the given report of fecalysis you seem to be suffering from amebiais.
To diagnose amebiasis cysts or trophozoites of Entamoeba histolytic should be present in the given stool sample.
Since, your fecalysis shows only the cysts that mean you have an asymptomatic infection or carrier state. You need to take a course of Diloxanide furoate to eradicate the cysts of the E. histolytic after consulting your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
