10 Giardia Symptoms
Symptom #8: Weight Loss
It is important to note that weight loss that is unexplained and/or happens too quickly is not a good thing. It is often a sign of an underlying illness, and such illnesses can be very dangerous to us. It is also a symptom of giardia, but thankfully, it is a condition that should not be too serious.
Patients with giardia are likely to have difficulty taking nutrition from the food that they eat. With vomiting and diarrhea, they are also likely to be losing a lot of the nutrition that they might otherwise be able to use. If you do suddenly start losing weight without a good reason then you should make an appointment with your doctor.
