He had been swallowing metal objects for a month after quitting alcohol, doctors said.

Huh? Is that some kind of folk wisdom, or is the man beset with some sort of alcohol insanity?

The man was brought by ambulance with severe abdominal pain to the hospital on the Baltic Sea coast

And people just jumped to the conclusion that it was from swallowing five pounds of nails, screws, nuts and knives. These are actually co-morbidities.

Surgeon Sarunas Dailidenas called it a "unique case".

One of the few in which it's probably better to just stay on the sauce.

He must have been hammered to do a thing like that!

I figured all that metal was in him due to being jabbed.

But, the stomach was the tip off as opposed to the bloodstream.

His blog got cancelled so he did the next most logical thing.

Reminds me of the MASH episode when Klinger started eating the jeep.

They call them swallowers. We got them as patients in the hospital, young guys usually for us Mexican, we had to put someone on to watch them so they would not swallow the screws out of the bathroom from the toilet holder in the wall. One guy wasn’t watched properly after the GI doc had already done the procedure to remove things like that from his stomach. Brought the pt back and 2 hours later he went to the bathroom in the pt room. The sitter was supposed to watch him in the bathroom, didn’t. Somehow the guy undid the recessed inset for the toiled paper, got the screws out and swallowed them. Then he removed all the plastic stuff connected to his iv and the iv and swallowed that. Totally creepy. Psych stuff.

I’d love to see that guy go through TSA screening at the airport.

Galvanized nails are a good source of zinc.

Weird. I mean the part about giving up alcohol. Why would he do that?
