Monday Richard and His Bright Ideas...

Unfortunately Monday Richard can’t deliver his wonderful weekly as he has lost his great idea for an today’s post...

….oh there it is!

No! That’s not why, unfortunately he has a really painful Slipped Disc and is dealing with the crippling effects at home. Lets all wish him a speedy recovery! :D

Luckily, he doesn't have any of these ailments!

Foreign Accent Syndrome - Foreign accent syndrome (FAS) is a speech disorder that causes sudden changes in speech pattern, intonation and pronunciation so that the victim is perceived to speak with a "foreign" accent. FAS usually results from severe trauma to the brain, such as a stroke or head injury, and typically develops within one or two years of the injury. Of the 50 to 60 cases that have been verified since 1941, only a few FAS sufferers regained their normal speech pattern, although some experienced success through speech therapy.

Ankylosing Spondolitis - It just sounds funny BUT ITS NOT. It is a real spinal condition, but how can you take it seriously with a name like that!!

Permanent Sexual Arousal Syndrome (PSAS) - increases blood flow to the sex organs. Main symptom is feeling constantly aroused. Some sufferers report to having over 200+ orgasms a day. it can happen at any time, at the shops, on a crowded bus or most embarrassingly, when having dinner at your parents; there is no cure.

Sexsomnia - a sleep disorder that, much like sleepwalking, compels the sufferer to engage in sexual activity while asleep. Identified in 2003, Sexsomnia has since been cited to acquit defendants accused of sexual assault in British and Canadian criminal cases.

Cataplexy - when almost any sort of strong emotion triggers a dramatic weakening of her muscles. Exhilaration, anger, fear, surprise, awe and even embarrassment can also cause sufferers to suddenly collapse on the spot.

 Exploding Head Syndrome - People with exploding head syndrome intermittently hear loud, explosion-like noises that seem to originate from within their own head. The "explosions" usually occur within an hour or two hours of the victim falling asleep. There's no physical pain, but sufferers understandably experience fear and anxiety after such attacks. While it's not clear what exactly causes the syndrome, it's been linked to stress and fatigue and often vanishes without any treatment.
