A condition where organisms exhibit abnormal sensitivity or irritability in response to cyst formation or parasitic infection.
From Greek 'kystis' (cyst) + 'erethismos' (irritation/stimulation). This medical term combines the concept of cysts with the physiological response of irritation.
This rare term captures how parasites don't just sit quietly in their hosts—they actually trigger physical reactions! It's evidence of the biological 'conversation' happening inside infected organisms.
