I recently had a heavy nosebleed. I prob get a nosebleed in same nostril (left) once every 6-8 weeks.
Moderate exercise, nasal decongestant use, then blowing nose seems to bring them on.
I'm posting these pics of what I found on the TP used to stop my nosebleed.
Is this some type of tape proglottids? The whole thing is about 1cm long on the glass slide.
I allowed the "worm" to sit overnight in water and all the blood moved into the water. I added 90% alcohol and stained it with Lugols, methylene blue, then fixed it on a microscope slide.
I will use saline instead of water if there is a next time.
I drew a black line separating the two pieces. I think the thin small piece may have been connected to one end on the big piece.
I plan on showing my Dr. next visit.
Please help me identify what I'm dealing with.
