It's good to know I can post any abnormalities of my bodily functions around here.
What a relief.

<< I'm only supposed to take it for 3 days, that seems kinda strange, I'd like to stay on it for weeks just to make sure everything's gone, but apparently that's not the way it works. >>

Damn, that's good that you got the cure and all, but it dooesn't seem right the doctor didn't want to find out what s/he was treating?! With some types of worms don't you have to go crazy bleaching down the house and bedding etc., whereas if they were from your crabstick then you'd just not eat there again.. how will you know??

I sometimes wonder how many of those people with amazing metabolism really have tapeworms.

That's a good point. I described the symptoms and the general description of the worm, and he seemed to hint at a guess of pinworms. Woulda been nice to know for sure though...

sometimes, buttoworms can be helpful. They increase your mental capacity, and they are not parasites, but actually, more like helpful companions. It's a symbiotic relationship. I know I sure wish I had buttworms.

You should see the episode of Futurama that deals with buttworms, hillarious.

Maybe, but can't you get worms from water as well? Or are these just limited to meat?

Is this sorta thing normal?

Now if there was ever a question that didn't need to be asked it was that one.

Yes you can. Or vegetables that have been in contact with objects that were previously in contact with uncooked meat (knives, cutting boards, etc.)
