Food type leading to headaches

I read this story of a Japanese man from Gifu Prefecture who complained incessantly about a persistent headache.
Mr. Shota loves his sashimi and sushi very much to the extent of trying to get them as "alive and fresh" as can be for his insatiable appetite.
He developed a severe headache, but for the past three years had put it off as migraine and stress from work.
It was only when he started losing his psycho-motor skills that he sought medical help.
A brain scan and x-ray revealed little however. But upon closer inspection by a specialist on his scalp, the Doctor noticed small movements beneath his skin. It was then that the Doctor did a local anesthetic to his scalp and discovered the cause! Tiny tapeworms crawled out! Major surgery was thus immediately called for and the extent of the infestation was horrific!
Remember: tapeworms, roundworms and their eggs which are abound in all fish, fresh or saltwater, can only be killed by thorough cooking and/or freezing the fish to between -4

The stories are 100% false there has never been a doccumented case of intestinal worms making their way into the brain.

The summary of the article indicates that the photos may be real or fake and if real are more likely due to aggresive (aggressive) brain or scalp cancer and touched up to include maggots.

While it is true that are some RARE disease which can cause animals to migrate to the brain they are very rare and usually confined to the tropics.

If you like Sushi don't worry about your brain being eating away, although I would never advise anyone to eat raw meat.
