Re: Photo of critter - 3 weeks after Humaworm

Hey gettingwell!

I have passed some creepy crawlies that look like that! I am on day 20 today...

Do you have any ideal what kind of parasite/worm that is?

Pinworms? Threadworms? Are these two the same? From photos that I saw they looked the same. Does anyone know?

I life in the Southeast and I think that threadworms can be a problem for those of us living here...

Mine looked like small pieces of thread. I did read a post where someone described something like bean sprouts. What I passed did not have the little tip on the end like a bean sprout does.

You know, it's kinda gross using different food to describe these parasites!!

I think that folks use food because food is universal!
