The disease "fainting" when meeting handsome men and the most "weird" diseases in the medical world that you have never known

Appearing very early, but until now these strange diseases have no specific treatment. The diseases seem to be funny jokes, but they affect the lives of the sufferers.

Fascinated when meeting a beautiful man

Whenever she sees an attractive man, Kirsty Brown (32 years old) from the UK will faint. Even this situation makes her not dare to look at the opposite s.ex when going out.

Ms. Kirsty was diagnosed with cataplexy, a disease that can cause sudden muscle paralysis, loss of muscle tone whenever the sufferer experiences strong emotions such as anger or fear. This strange illness is often associated with narcolepsy, a sleep disorder that causes intense daytime sleepiness, leading to sudden drowsiness.

Ms. Kirsty's cataplexy started when she was 9 years old. At that time, sudden fainting caused her head injury. The disease continued to follow until she became an adult, married and had children.

Currently, on average, she faints about 5 times a day. Even up to 50 times a day at most. If she had insomnia, fainting occurred with much higher frequency.

When she meets any man she finds attractive, Miss Kirsty will faint. This condition even made her face down so as not to look at anyone when she went out. Because if she fainted suddenly, her knees would fall to the ground and possibly hurt.

"I felt so embarrassed. I was shopping once when I saw an attractive man, I was unsteady as soon as I walked and had to cling to my cousin," Ms. Kirsty said.

Not only anger, fear, meeting attractive men but any strong emotions like hearing loud noises, shouting, arguing, laughing violently can cause fainting. Since it's a chronic illness, she's still struggling with it right now

The rare disease causes her resting heart rate to be 110 beats per minute, up to 40 beats higher than a normal person.

Not stopping there, when a feeling of euphoria appeared, the concentration of adrenaline in her b.lood increased, her heart rate could increase up to 180 beats / min. This state will render her unconscious.

The disease has led to some unexpected situations. Laura can faint at any time when having s.ex with her husband. "Whenever I have s.ex I have a 50 per cent chance of fainting," Laura said.

But it's not just s.ex that makes her faint, other activities like laughing, exercising or not getting enough sleep, heat, any activity that makes her heart rate increase, such as watching horror movies Oddly enough, it can also make her faint.

At her worst, Laura fainted seven or eight times a day. But after giving birth to b.aby Ralph in 2015 and Faith in 2016, her symptoms began to subside. She only fainted once a day.

Even so, she still had to be careful to avoid situations that could cause fainting. In addition, Laura also has another disease such as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, which makes the skin and joints weak and prone to stretching. Therefore, she always needs someone by her side to help her when she suddenly faints.

Laura is considering getting a service dog. This dog can bark warning when she is about to faint. Thanks to that, she can lead a more independent life

SICK THAT MAKES Laughter TO Breathless

According to Howstuffworks news site, in 1962, in the Bukoba area, Tanganyika (now in Tanzania), three schoolgirls suddenly suffered from non-stop laughing. After that, the disease spread, causing more than 1,000 people to fall into the same condition. The disease began on January 30, 1962 at the Kashasha Girls' School in Bukoba. At first, the teacher thought that this group of students was not serious and asked them to write a review. But anxiety gradually appeared when laughter like a virus spread everywhere. Anyone who comes into contact with an infected person laughs immediately. The illness lasted 16 days, causing the school to close in March, with 95/159 students infected. Even parents who come to pick up their children get sick and laugh after coming into contact with infected people.

And yet, 10 days after the school closed, the "laughing virus" also appeared in a village nearly 900km away with 127 villagers laughing around the clock. It even spread to neighboring Uganda, causing the number of infected people to skyrocket to more than 1,000, leaving 14 schools affected and closed for months.

The disease recurred years later, prompting researchers to intervene. Experts at the University of Campinas (Brazil), said that the laughing epidemic in Tanganyikan could be caused by a virus. It is possible that the mass "laughing diseases" here are caused by brain damage caused by an encephalitis virus. It is also hypothesized that this is due to food p.oisoning or hysteria mass. Hysteria mass is essentially a response to stress, common with groups of people who feel helpless.

Hysteria mass is now known as dissociative disorder, a term used to describe a large number of people exhibiting symptoms of physical and mental hysteria.
