With a mild case you my have no symptoms. With a more extensive infestation after a day or so

you may have Diarrhea and Abdominal pain. This is the first phase. Phase two begins after about a week and may involve high fever, muscle pain and tenderness and swelling of the eyelids or face.

If you're worried you have trichinosis, it's veryunlikely. Only 20 cases are reported in the U.S. each year. This means there's only one chance in 15 million you have these worms.
