I believe I ingested a pork tape worm that causes Cysticercosis and have symptoms of pressure in my eye and the movement of small worms in my brain 31 hours later--i actually felt them. Is it possible for this to all happen so quickly?

A lot of people around the word have some type of tapeworm in their stomaches and it never hurts them, most of them don't even know they have them. If you feel you might have a worm go to the doctor they will give you medication to get them out of you. They don't go to your brain, all they do is sit in your stomach and eat the food that you ate.

I am pretty sure worms don't go to your head from your stomach. i think that's just the movies there....I agree with the other person that said that worms in your head come from something getting into a nose or ear. But if you really think it is a worm or something, I'd go straight to a doctor. I mean, who cares how long it took to get there even if it did go up from a stomach? Are you going to leave it there? Ewwww! yuck! naw, it's something else...but go to a doctor anyway!

I might be wrong, but I thought that the worms that get into your brain can not get there from your stomach. When people get parasites in their brain, they enter the body in the ear or nose, like while swimming in the Amazon.
I also think that you would be very sick if the worm was in your brain.

Seizures are next, if you start seizing, try and dial 9-1-1 between twitches.....
And find something else to read besides medical journals.....:)

Go see a doctor if you really think this.
But I don't think tape worms can get to your brain, or you'd be dead right now.

Tapeworms do not go to your brain.
