Worms?

[adamant]

Hi, You may have seen a previous thread where I found like white seeds in my stool.

I'm sure they were just fro the seeded bread I was eating beacause after stopping they stopped appearing.

Although I am aware that they could also be worms and its make me worry.

I dont itch, Or have been sick. Although what makes me worry is I have been having abdominol (spelling?) pain quite a bit recently and when I eat food I am constantly hungry. I could eat a huge plate and within 10 seconds my stomach feels empty and not full.

Could this be worms?

If I take worming medication and it is not stools will I be ill?

Thanks.

adamant,

My daughter has had two lots of episodes of threadworms. You can see them on the toilet paper and obviously round the bum. The whole family had to be treated even if we had them or not, so as for taking the medication when you haven't got worms and making you ill, it didn't make me ill. I would describe your symptoms to a chemist as they are quite able to advise on if you should take them for a precautionary measure etc.
Hope that helps, but I wouldn't worry about them as they are easily treatable.
