I do see the white segments during my BM. I am convinced pretty much that I have tapeworms that are breaking off. But I personally have never felt the sensations described by some other posters. I did used to get really itchy thighs when I would go the gym and do the treadmill. I wondered if it was laundry soap, my gym clothes fabric, etc. Well that seem to have subsided pretty much and I do wonder what was causing that.
