Hi - Usually they do a standard stool test for parasites. Honestly, unless you go camping and drink from streams or travel to third world countries, you're not too likely to be exposed to GI parasites. It can happen, and it's easy enough to rule out, but since you've had all these other diagnostic tests I wouldn't be too worried about this.
