CampylobacterA clinical diagnosis of a Campylobacter infection requires laboratory testing of a stool sample. Because Campylobacter only survives and proliferates under specific conditions, isolating the organism from a stool sample is difficult, but most labs are able to test for it.

Usually a working diagnosis is based on the symptoms of diarrheal illness and the time of onset, as well as the length of the illness. The symptoms most doctors look for are diarrhea, abdominal cramps, fever and a headache lasting for about a week.
