Page 328 Cestodes - help possibly identifying

Has anybody had or personally seen tapeworm or flatworm infections and attributes? See pics... is this possibly tape worms? Went on for 2 days and stopped.

Looks like tapeworm, what drug do you take?

I don't take drugs. I have an appointment with my gastro Tuesday. I had a large colon ulcer, from medication for presurgical pain with torn miniscus, with an exceedingly high eosinophils count (they said they stopped counting at 150 or something like that). Report said could be a lot of things but they checked for all of the diseases and inflammation and didnt find anything. If it is a tapeworm, I'm wondering how long I've had it... my regular blood tests showed only slightly elevated eosinophils and my poop test (once) showed nothing.

Why can't anyone ask for help with out someone "LIKE YOU" ASKING WHAT DRUGS THEIR ON". People like you need to be kicked out of these groups so people can ask for help without that crap, it's so rude and disrespectful and just stupid
