...dealing with Gastic Ulcers or Trichinosis? The grosser - the better.
I have to put together a power-point presentation on these 2 diseases for Micro class. I can get all the detailed-fact stuff, but if you know any random facts or have a story to tell - please share. I'm also searching the web for some gruesome pics. It was the professor who said for us to have fun (yep, have fun with diseases) and try to make it interesting and as gross as possible. I love this lady!! lol

How about getting trichinosis from undercooked BEAR steaks?

or from raw COUGAR meat?
