Worms

[quint]

Any recommendations fro what to take for worms? Went to the chemist and they gave me Ovex - doesn't seem to have done the job!

It depends on what sort of worms they are. Ovex is ok for threadworms, but not for roundworms. If Ovex hasn't worked, it's worth checking with your GP.

How do you know it's worms? What have you seen?

The other thing worth knowing is, if it's threadworms (which are v common), you have to wash sheets/change towels/vacuum bedrooms a lot to get rid of them. Just taking the pills doesn't do the trick.

And it takes a few days for Ovex to work, apparently. At least 48 hours, possibly more.

Its definitely threadworms! Looks like little white threads!

That could be it Elibean - not felt any wriggling (TMI sorry) today! Already changed sheets and towels etc but thanks!

Damp dusting too - the eggs are v. light, and can float around . Poor you - should soon be over though.
