The patient gave a stool sample during a visit to a doctor in the Isaan province Nong Khai, which borders Laos. Lab tests found 28 eggs in the sample. The patient was given deworming medicine. He took it right before bed, and by the morning, the worm was coming out of his rectum

"Do me a favour, could you stand on the end of this'
Interestingly, most dewormers just cause the suckers at the head to relax, it's the egg cysts which cause the most problems.
Enjoy your lunch!

Who was on acid?
You, the cat, or the tapeworm?

Just the humans
It was a sort of horrible, magnified, focussed fascination. So glad it didn't say anything, either the cat or the roundworm.
