(CNN) A 46-year-old construction worker in China suffering from seizures turned out to have tapeworms in his brain -- suspected to be the result of eating undercooked meat. During the night, while he was sleeping, Zhu would experience seizure-like symptoms, similar to epilepsy. However, Zhu declined any further examinations, not wanting to spend more money, and returned home, according to the report. However, the symptoms did not go away and Zhu continued experiencing seizures. Finally, he went to the Zhejiang University hospital, where doctors performed an MRI scan and diagnosed him with neurocysticercosis -- tapeworms on the brain.
