People have given you guidance. Go to a doctor. Nothing else we can do or say. Unfortunately even Moongewl cannot do a proper diagnosis over the internet. The only way to know for sure is to take yourself in to see someone about it.

If people havn't replied that they've had a tapeworm, then they probably haven't.

yeah i get your point, i was just trying to get second opinion, you dont have to use bold font and come off so strongly

You asked for opinions, those were the opinions given. You asked the same question twice effectivly, I chose to use bold font to get my point across because you hadn't acknowledge the idea of going to a physician about this at all in your second post. I meant to come off strongly. Tapeworms can become serious business, if you're truly worried about it inform your parental or guardian units and have them take you to a doctor.

Parental or guardian units? :rofl:

Anyways, if bold font doesn't convince you, this will: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cysticercosis

*Strikes tape worms off the list*

Well. I have officially almost seen every "What should I do if..." thread on this here interweb, just lacking... Errr.
You know, I don't want to know what I'm missing from the list actually.

If I didn't care. I wouldn't post. If you're concerned, i'm concerned. Seriously, there are a lot of issues that can go along with having parasites. Please do go to a doctor and get it checked out.

On that note. Jockeys (you know, horse back riding jockeys) used to take tapeworm eggs and eat them to keep their weight down. Yummers eh?

ARE U SERIOUS

OMG!!!!!!ILL*Throws Up*

blueZ · **Posted:** Mon Mar 12, 2007 2:12 am

but the thing is, im not THAT convinced that i actually have it
its just an assumption
because i looked up some of the signs and symptoms for tapeworms
and most of them showed:
* Nausea
* Weakness
* Loss of appetite
* Abdominal pain
* Diarrhea
* Weight loss
but who doesnt experience some of those things from time to time?
like weakness and loss of appetite can just be caused from a bad night sleep.
and weight loss can be caused by loss of appetite.

ninjoy · **Posted:** Mon Mar 12, 2007 2:16 am

no its not that its about the jocky thing he said they eat tapeworm eggs so yeah...

If you've been having these symptoms for more then a couple days you need to go see a doctor. It's extremely easy to become dehydrated with that list of symptoms, and you should go see one anyways. It may not be a tapeworm, but if thats the list, then it sounds like something serious that needs to be checked out.
