He said he had been having memory loss and mental fogginess and so contacted neurologists who spotted a dark spot on his brain scans. They said he had a tumour but another doctor believed he had a dead parasite in his head, The New York Times reported.
Independent US presidential candidate Robert F Kennedy Jr has said that a worm once got into his brain and ate part of it before the parasite died. The 70-year-old made the claim during a 2012 interview, known as a deposition, in his divorce proceedings from his second wife Mary Richardson Kennedy. At the time, he said his earning power had been diminished by cognitive issues.
' He said that tests showed his mercury levels were 10 times higher than what the Environmental Protection Agency sees as safe. A chemist told the same publication that the mercury levels which Mr Kennedy described were high but not surprising for someone consuming that quantity and type of seafood. Mr Kennedy said he made changes after the health scares, including getting more sleep and cutting down on his fish intake.
