It's Not a Tumor - Doctors Find Worm In Woman's Brain Instead

Doctors in Arizona thought a Phoenix-area woman had a possible brain tumor, but it turned out there was something else penetrating her brain – a worm.

Rosemary Alvarez started experiencing numbness in her arm and blurred vision. She went to the emergency room twice and had a cat scan, but everything came up clear, MyFOXPhoenix.com reported.

It wasn’t until doctors took a closer look at an MRI that they discovered something very disturbing.

“Once we saw the MRI we realized this is something not good,” neurosurgeon, Dr. Peter Nakaji told the news station. “It's something down in her brain stem which is as deep in the brain as you can be.”
The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out. Ugh.

The worms play peaknuckle on your snout. If her brain has that kind of worms, her body must be over loaded with parasites. :-)

I wonder if she's here legally.  Just curious.  Most literate, somewhat-educated people aren't riddled with worms and TB.
