A MAN from California recently found himself suffering from severe stomach cramps and chronic diarrhoea and unfortunately that was just the beginning of his trauma.
The 30-year-old soon discovered something was dangling from his rear end and naturally he suspected the worst.
"He was like, 'oh my goodness my guts are coming out of me'," said Kenny Banh, the emergency physician who attended to him during the incident.
As it turns out the dangling object was a 1.7 metre tape worm, the product of the man's acute fondness for eating raw fish.
It is not yet known whether the experience has caused the Californian to completely cease and desist on sushi.
A MAN has been arrested for masquerading as an anaesthesiologist at the Sharp Grossmont Hospital in San Diego.
Zaid Jeorge told medical staff that he had attended Harvard Medical School and was currently interning at the hospital.
However, when suspicious staff ran some checks they soon discovered he was, in fact, an Iraqi national with a Swedish passport.
Jeorge will now have to hire a lawyer to defend the charges, or at the very least pull off an authentic impression of one.
