Born in Missouri 1,264 Posted August 5, 2018 The tapeworms would be funny-- if it wasn't actually true. I assume some of you have heard about the mother who got mail-order tapeworm eggs from Mexico. She fed them to her teenage daughter without her daughter's knowledge. The daughter ended up in the ER complaining of abdominal cramps. While still in the ER, the daughter asked to use the bathroom... to her horror, the toilet was filled with adult tapeworms desperately trying to escape from the toilet bowl. I don't know if social services was contacted, but they should have been. Apparently, the mother was trying to save her daughter from the embarrassment of being too fat. Yeah, as if worms crawling out of your butt isn't embarrassing enough... 1 2 BostonWLKC, foxcblue and Born in Missouri reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Born in Missouri 1,264 Posted August 5, 2018 Don't you just love it when this forum highlights "eggs" with the intent of focusing on something healthy except it's really highlighting TAPEWORM eggs. 2 funky_monkey800 and Born in Missouri reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frustr8 7,886 Posted August 5, 2018 Yeah I saw the program on Discovery Health. That and the one where the mother decked Daddy when he didn't want her delivering and ruining the Morrocan Leather seat covers in his fancy,schamansky sportscar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Diana_in_Philly 1,426 Posted August 5, 2018 "I worked with my medical team. I eat a high Protein diet. I cut out Pasta, bread, sugar, alcohol and most other carbs pretty much permanently. I exercise at least an hour a day." All of that is true. By the time I get to what I cut out, most people start running because the thought of cutting out all those carbs gives them the shakes. If they ask more pointed questions, I respond with a question - "did you get laid last night?" When they looked shocked, I tell them that I view my medical issues as privately as they view their sex life. And then I change the subject. It usually ends questions. 1 1 Pearldrop and Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frustr8 7,886 Posted August 5, 2018 Gosh I wished when my PCP asked me, at 72 and 6 years widowed, if I was still sexually active, I should have said, "No Doctor, are You?" Better he feels uncomfortable than remind me no one wants me THAT way? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
