Possible threadworm infestation?
I have been noticing that in my stool there are very weird things attached. i did some googling and saw pictures of human stool that had threadworms in it or attached to it and it looked the same. I went to walgreens friday to get their store brand threadworm medication. it is a one dose medication that supposedly makes it so the worms can no longer feed off glucose and they die. Yet today is monday and i am still pooping out worms. help!
