Tape worm

I am scared I have one- most likely no because the only raw meat i eat is Sushi.

"Often no signs or symptoms
Most people who are infected with tapeworm don't show symptoms.

Signs and symptoms of intestinal infection
Most likely, you won't have any signs or symptoms with an intestinal infection. It's possible you might notice segments of the adult tapeworm (proglottids) in your stool. Other possible signs and symptoms include:

* Nausea
* Weakness
* Loss of appetite
* Abdominal pain
* Diarrhea
* Weight loss and inadequate absorption of nutrients from food"

Now I dont think i have the weight loss one but the rest of them i have... What else can it be?

This is how you detect PINWORM not tapeworm.

This is how tapeworm is diagnosed...

Thanks for the knowledge doc I was sooo wrong, I just remember mom checking me like that when I was younger...but guess it was the wrong kind of worm Thanks for the clear-up J! You are great!!!
