The next time you suffer that headache, it might be wise to go ahead and have yourself checked. Take the case of Yadira Rostro, who was surprised to find out that she had eight... count them, eight... tapeworm eggs inside her head! Read the rest of the news in the link below. Also, you might want to reconsider eating that taco from the street stall the next time you are in spring break in Mexico. Thoughts everyone? Me, I'm creeped out but I'll still grab the street grub we have here in the Philppines.
A Texan women has had multiple tapeworm eggs surgically removed from her brain following nine months of complaining about severe headaches. Yadira Rostro, 31, from Garland, had eight tapeworm eggs inside her head.

I cannot believe she did not had a CAT scan before. This is the first test that doctors prescribe when you suffer of headaches.

Yeah, surprised that she didn't have it sooner. Glad it is over for her right now and she got better.

omg!!! That's terrible! Good thing I don't get headaches at all! I do get sore throats a lot ever since I was a kid so no chance of tapeworms there.
