So basically, for about 3 month or so I have had (very mild) diarrhoea and the last few weeks this turned into slight constipation one day and the next diarrhoea (with some days not going at all).
I have read coming off meds can cause this and I also mentioned the diarrhoea to the docs almost 4 weeks ago and nothing was mentioned. However, earlier this evening when I went to the toilet I noticed a brown string like thing from my 'business' and it was moving. There were also a few tiny whitish segments moving around the toilet bowl. I am now 99% convinced I have worms and I am terrified as I have read some bad stuff. We do have 3 cats but we have been checking their poop for other reasons recently and I'm almost certain they don't have it, they have also been to the vets (for a diff reason, but I'm sure they would still have noticed whilst checking them over). So now I am worried it's due to contaminated meat and my partner and child may have them!
I have a GP appointment next Friday for something else so I could easily mention them then but I am so scared to wait that long and am contemplating the walk in centre in the morning. Can these be dangerous or is that very rare? My health anxiety has been very manageable lately and then this :-(
