[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've had two parasitic worms.  1 was expelled like you describe.  For the other, the medication I took made it an unlivable environment but the worm wouldn't die.  Instead it would make its way to the nearest exist , crawl out, and die.   You can imagine my horror when DH woke me up freakingiut as the worm crawled out of my mouth.  [/quote]

OH MY GOD!!! That is the stuff of nightmares!

FWIW, I had worms when I was little (like 4 or 5). Gross... but I remember digging in there at night due to itching then watching them crawl on my finger. My mom didn't believe me for the longest time, but I remember finding out I probably got them from hours of being outside barefoot. Never gone out barefoot again, nor will my children.[/quote]

OMG, you're an idiot.  You did not get pinworms from walking around outside while barefoot.  Pinworms are INGESTED[/quote]

Maybe she's talking about hookworms.[/quote]

This is PP. I WAS talking about hookworms and that's always what I've remembered my mom saying they were. Reading through this thread made me look up pinworms... they look almost identical to hookworms, so maybe they were pinworms and not hookworms after all. Still not going outside barefoot, though.[/quote]
