Doctors Find Parasite In Man’s Brain, Say It’s Because Of Undercooked Bacon

A Florida man who experienced severe migraines on a weekly basis for a period of four months was found to have a parasitic infection in his brain. He explained that his migraines were very painful and were not responding to medications, according to the case report, which was published in the American Journal of Case Reports.

Florida health officials stated that the 52-year-old patient denied visiting high-risk travel areas, with his only notable travel history being a trip to the Bahamas two years prior.

It was when the unidentified man was asked about his diet that doctors were able to get a better understanding of the situation.
