Symptoms were: Constantly hungry(to an extreme level) and if she didnt eat large quantities of food she would become nausus! Shes starting medicine for, and im sure everyone can figure out on their own how its being removed..haha

You literally starve the worms when you don't eat; it's so disgusting knowing that there's a parasite living in you. I think those damn things law cysts as well. Hope your friend feels better and have them take a picture Face with Stuck-out Tongue I want to see.

Hey this is the XwakeriderX i made a new acct for some reason, haha i never actually got to see a picture  but it was described as white/slightly pink but it was really hard to actually get an estimation on how long it was. I guess it was very coiled but her estimation was 3 feet which is half the size predicted by the doctor but we will never know!
