A trip to India left me with 38 parasites in my brain - BBC NEWS

[Master Chief]

We know pattern of BBC. Such concorted articles are a pattern, the story itself is strange, she got a brain worm her doctor thinks it's from her India travel that happened in 2007, she observed symptoms in 2011, she also travelled to many countries in between. Dangerous and bad food items are a thing around the world yes, but it doesn't need a sensational piece.

Where does the article say she "travelled to many countries in between" her 2007 India trip and her seizure in 2011? (Never mind the seizure, she saw the adult tapeworm in the toilet in 2010).

Long time back, there was a scandal in Brazil. Rats grew to a foot long, eating chicken droppings, which had growth hormones in them.

Scary thought. Willard on steroids.

Where do all these parasitologists come from in this forum?

Is it from the same place that all the hydrologists are busily preparing their seminars for us humble students?

All these parasites in the intestine produce eggs. a simple stool test will tell you. you do not have to be a rocket scientist here

One of the possibilities
1. She caught it somewhere else after 2007
2. she did not go to the doctor
3. her doctor was incompetent
4. she did not follow her doctor's advice
5. serious symptoms did not show up for years

Don't be such a loser, she said she got the tapeworm infection from India.

damn i feel sorry for her. This is why you must be very careful in consuming meat and food outside the home.
Good thing we(Pakistanis) avoid pork. Its not good for health!

In India as much as I know pork eaten only by catholics and NE citizens,...

Lowri says she is happy to be alive and healthy after her ordeal

Well she is lucky. But, let us keep in mind:

Approximately 50 million individuals are affected by neurocysticercosis worldwide, with around 50,000 deaths attributed to the condition each year.

She is not that unique, unfortunately.
