A woman found her diamond wedding ring on an X-ray after she accidentally swallowed it with vitamins.

Dannah McMichael, 39, and her husband Randy McMichael, 45, a retired NFL player, were on holiday in Thailand when the incident happened.

The couple had just arrived in Phuket after a stop in the Philippines, where they'd dropped their two sons, 11 and two, with relatives.



As Dannah was preparing to shower, she took off her wedding ring and accidentally swallowed it with handful of vitamins.

Dannah, a clinic director from Atlanta, Georgia, said: "I was beyond jet-lagged after all the flights."

"We went out for dinner and drinks and when I got back, I wanted to shower."

"Without looking, I threw everything in my mouth and washed it down with water."

As she swallowed the pills, Dannah started choking and quickly noticed that her ring was missing.

She said: "When I started choking on the pills and noticed my ring was missing, I knew something was wrong."

The couple turned their hotel room upside down but the ring was nowhere to be found.

After Dannah's husband Randy joked asking if she had swallowed it, the couple decided to find a clinic where they could get an X-ray.

Two days later, they eventually found a clinic with an X-ray machine.

Dannah said: "We couldn't believe it."

"I laughed so hard."

"It was just the funniest thing ever happened to me."

"Randy was very relieved because at first he thought the masseuse swiped it off my finger."

Doctors assured Dannah that the ring would pass naturally, and a day later, it did.

She said: "It came out thanks to the magnesium pills."

"It's the grossest thing I've ever done but I'm wearing it again."
