Answers:
You are probably just growing!. If you are over 18, then I suggest you see a doctor, because you are probably just going to be growing OUT if you keep eating a lot!. If you are between the ages of 12 and 18 then it is pretty safe to say you are just having a growth spurt, but if you would like to consult with your doctor you should!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Depending on the type of tapeworm, other symptoms could include:

pain in the abdomen,
pain in the part of the abdomen immediately above the stomach (epigastric pain),
nausea or vomiting,
enteritis (inflammation of the intestine, usually accompanied by diarrhoea),
diarrhoea,
weight loss,
loss of appetite,
dizziness,
insomnia,
fits (convulsions), and
malnutrition (a condition caused by not being able to absorb food properly)!.

Just because you are eating alot is no sign you have tapeworm!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Most people who are infected with tapeworm don't show symptoms!. However, you may notice tapeworm eggs, larvae or proglottids — segments of the adult tapeworm — in your stool!.

Other signs and symptoms include:

Nausea
Weakness
Loss of appetite
Abdominal pain
Diarrhea
Weight loss

If you experience any of the signs or symptoms of tapeworm infection, you should immediately seek medical attention!. also contact your doctor if you believe you've been exposed to food or water contaminated with tapeworm or you've been traveling in areas with poor sanitation!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yep,that`s probably what it is!. you need to coax it out by waving some food under you bum!. Preferably a cheese and marmite sandwich!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

You are PREGNANT!. You are EATING FOR TWO!. Enjoy it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I assume you are just growing!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
