White balls in stool

Embarrassing, I know. But I've been having this trouble for about a week now. Went to the doctor but he claims it was from the asparagus I ate. I've been passing small white balls in my stool (wish this site allowed pictures, though y'all probably don't wanna see that). I can't shake the fact that it could be an intestinal parasite. I've been experiencing itching around the Anus and mild abdominal discomfort. Can't tell if these symptoms are just in my head or not.

I’ve been having the same problems.    Pinworms.  It’s awful.  
Good luck. I’m losing my mind

I’m sorry, that’s not very supportive.     There is over the counter treatment you can try.    The prescription is rediculous expensive.  One treatment, 2 pills, cost 800$.    Wash ALL YOUR bedding and Deep Clean everything.  Then you can maintain just the bathroom and bed/sleep area  with daily cleaning and sanitizing

White or pale feces often indicates a lack of bile in your digestive system. This could be from a dysfunction of the liver, pancreas or gall bladder. If your stool is still pale or white after a few days of not eating asparagus, I would seek a second opinion.
