I have since become a devout fan of parasite studies because of my animal husbandry. My fondest desire would be to become a "parasite behaviorist" because when you know what they crave, you can capture them. Recently I hacked up an item that looked very much like the posterior 1/3 of a round worm but my doctor breezily dismissed it saying, "If that had been in your lung you'd be dead already." A week apart, I hacked up two more "bots" from the right lung. Doctors tell me I almost assuredly have lung cancer, but I feel too healthy for that, also no blood emission. My vet said it looked too fat for a toxocara canis. Wanna see?

Cysticercosis occurs when Taenia solium mistakes a human for a pig -- they are, after all, worms, and not super-bright -- and encysts in us.
