Man suffering from migraines found to have tapeworms in brain after consuming partially cooked bacon: study
Fox News
A 52-year-old man suffering from severe migraines was found to have tapeworm larvae attached to his brain, which researchers linked to his consumption of lightly cooked bacon.
Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.
The study noted that the man told doctors his migraines occurred almost weekly and were not responsive to medication. He also said he did not travel to high-risk areas, lived at home with his wife and cat, and preferred lightly cooked, non-crispy bacon, which he admitted having eaten most of his life.

The man underwent numerous tests, including a CT scan, which uncovered multiple cysts in his brain. But there was no evidence of hydrocephalus, or buildup of fluid.
