I had a leech up my nose

When a graduate from Glasgow started suffering nosebleeds after a backpacking trip around south-east Asia, she put it down to a motorbike crash she鈥檇 had.

It was only when one of those nosebleeds turned around and crawled back up her nostril that she realised something was seriously wrong.

Daniela Liverani鈥檚 describes how a nurse 鈥渞ecoiled in horror鈥� at the leech living in her nose.
