Has anyone ever had a Tape Worm?
ok, i know i shouldnt complain, but its really starting to freak me out. Since December, i've lost 25 pounds, But a majority of that has been, really, since March. I dont exercise or anything, i just keep losing weight (ok, yeah, i've wished for this my whole life, and now that i got it, Im worried   ). I guess i eat less than i used to, but its not like i used to eat so much anyway. So really, there havent been any drastic changes in my exercise (or lack there of)/ eating routine, but every week, im a few pounds less- and really, its unexplainable. I have a wellness appt in 2 weeks, so i'm gonna have it checked out, but its just really starting to weird me out.
Anyway, last night DH was saying that he thought i had a tape worm or something. i've heard of it before, but dont really know what it is, so i figured i'd see if anyone else has had one, and what the characteristics were. (i think im just looking for piece of mind  )
has anyone ever had one, or know what it is???
thanks!

I know someone who had it. He lost LOTS of weight. But I think with some meds he was back to normal

I don't remember him being sick. Just the unusual weight loss.

Re: Has anyone ever had a Tape Worm?
I would definately talk about it with a doctor, just in case. You may just be lucky and losing weight because you're eating less, but it's definately not something to mess around with.

I would GLADLY give it to ya!
Ok, seriously, i'm tempted to kick my OWN azz for complaining about losing weight- its just weird b/c i Really have not been doing anything different. Also, i have the WORST family history when it comes to health issues (seriously, No one would want to go swimming in our gene pool  ), so im just a little worried now
