Even after treatment. symptoms may continue. As the parasite feeds on the protein in the blood, it will take time for the globulin (not to be confused with hemoglobin) levels to return to their former state.

[edit] Why STI?

Can someone tell me why Amoebiasis is listed as a STI at the bottom of this page? It is RARELY transmitted in this way, although a number of cases have been reported in Japan in the male homosexual community. Listing it in this way gives the wrong impression in my opinion. There have been cases of transmission by enema but that doesn't mean it ought to be highlighted. It is primarily transmitted through faecal contamination of food or water, or by person to person transmission. Can someone tell me how to delete this feature of the page? Thanks.
