Jazak Allah khair for your question.
First foremost it is important that whatever problems you are experiencing you must explore all medical avenues first before concluding that it is sihr (magic). Beware if anyone using dubious methods such as measuring the length of a clothes, or rope etc. It is also wrong for anyone to request your mother's name or date of birth etc. These people often call themselves Amil (healer) and might even claim to have mokal (Muslim jinns) working for them.
I cannot check for you if you are affected by magic. But I can help you find out.
There is nothing mystical about checking is someone affected by magic the, rather the signs of magic are obvious from plain observation- reactions to the Quran. A normal person who is not affected by magic or jinn will not show any reaction to the Quran.
Most people who have been affected by magic will react to verses of the Quran which make reference to magic, namely;

- Surah Baqarah [2:102]
- Surah Baqarah [2:255] - Ayat Al Kursi
- Surah Ara'f [7:117-119]
- Surah Yunus [10:81-82]
- Surah TaHa [20:65-69]
- Surah Ikhlaas [112]
- Surah Falaq [113]
- Surah Nas [114]
Please listen to the Quranic verses that I have uploaded below and note any reactions that you have.
The type of reactions that a person might experience are headaches, vomiting sensation, arms or legs jerking, movement in the stomach- depending on the type of magic and how it was administered.
Again I emphasize that it is important to make sure that we explore all the medical options available to us before concluding that the issue is magic. A person affected with magic will react to the verses of the Quran however the person who has a a medical illness will not have any negative reaction to the Quran.
Magic is usually done for a specific purpose and affects a person's emotions in a specific way. For example if the sihr has been done to separate a husband from his wife- he may feel sudden and unexplained surge of anger and hatred towards her every time she comes near him. He might look at her as see a weird and ugly expression on her face.

Please protect yourself from jinn and magic by learning the duas the prophet (sallahu alayhi wa sallam) taught us. Please click here Morning and Evening Protection duas. Prevention is better than cure.
If you react to the verses above then you might want to get ruqya done from someone reliable in your area to help remove the jinn. Please click here to find a ruqya practitioner
Finally if you discover that it is definitely black magic one of the most effective ways to remove it is finding the original charm or items (taweez) that was used to perform black magic and destroy it. It could be a piece of paper with strange boxes and grids, it could be hair, bones, blood, clothes of the victim etc
It is important that if you suspect someone to have done the black magic on you that you avoid confronting them about it. Keep your ruqya and treatment secret because often when the word gets out that you are seeking treatment the magic is renewed by the original culprits again.
Unfortunately, majority of the times the original charm can never be found and therefore the previous 6 steps have to be adopted to deal with it and it is a long term process.
The only authentic way to find the charm is to wake up regularly for tahajjud salah* and make dua sincerely to Allah to show you a clear dream what is affecting you.
As a result of doing this many people have mentioned that they saw the location of the charm. In some cases they were able to find it and destroy it and in effect invalidate the magic that was done.
How do I dispose of a taweez?
I hope this answers your question and no doubt Allah Knows Best.

Notes:
* Tahajjud salah is a prayer that you pray between isha and fajr usually after you've had a nap. The best time to pray it is in the last third of the night about and hour or two before the time for Fajr salah enters. You pray it as you would pray a normal two units (rakats) of salah. You can pray as many as you like but its preferred to read 8 rakats. After completing the 8 rakats make you can make sincere dua.
