    The last 2 days ive felt very nauseous,Ive been dizzy and very tired, ive had very bad stomach pains and have been going to the bathroom a lot, and ive been eating like a horse (eg- yesterday i finished a big roast dinner and an hour later i was starving)

    I though i was pregnant but i look 2 tests today and im not. I think i may have worms, is there anyway to be sure? I have a few of the symptoms.

    Mods please move if need be

    go to a doctor then. They can diagnose and treat them. A huge portion of people have worms apparently. You can get them by eating meat or fish that isn't cooked enough.

    This isn't a medical board.

    Go to the doctor.

    With thread worms, your back passage will be itchy. You can buy otc medicine such as Vermox. With tapeworm infection you're likely to suffer loss of appetite, nausea,abdominal pain, diarrhoea and weight loss, it can be treated with medication however It gets more dangerous and difficult to treat if it spreads from the intestines to surrounding body tissue. It may not be worm infection at all, you could have developed an over active thyroid gland, you have some of the symptoms. Best to go to the doc. Good luck:)
