6. The Woman Who Can’t Forget That's the story of AJ, an extraordinary 40-year-old married woman who remembers everything. McGaugh and fellow UCI researchers Larry Cahill and Elizabeth Parker have been studying the extraordinary case of a person who has "nonstop, uncontrollable and automatic" memory of her personal history and countless public events. If you randomly pick a date from the past 25 years and ask her about it, she’ll usually provide elaborate, verifiable details about what happened to her that day and if there were any significant news events on topics that interested her. She usually also recalls what day of the week it was and what the weather was like. The 40-year-old woman, who was given the code name AJ to protect her privacy, is so unusual that UCI coined a name for her condition in a recent issue of the journal Neurocase: hyperthymestic syndrome. 7.

These are odd but interesting. Read on. 1. The Woman Who has 200 Orgasms every day UK 's Sarah Carmen, 24, is a 200-a-day orgasm girl who gets good, good, GOOD vibrations from almost anything. She suffers from Permanent Sexual Arousal Syndrome (PSAS), which increases blood flow to the sex organs. "Sometimes I have so much sex to try to calm myself down I get bored of it. And men I sleep with don't seem to make as much effort because I climax so easily." She believes her condition was brought on by the pills. "Within a few weeks I just began to get more and more aroused more and more of the time and I just kept having endless orgasms. It started off in bed where sex sessions would last for hours and my boyfriend would be stunned at how many times I would orgasm. Then it would happen after sex. I'd be thinking about what we'd done in bed and I'd start feeling a bit flushed, then I'd become aroused and climax. In six months I was having 150...

THE NEWS: 3-year-old boy critical after 'vetsin' meal 07/31/2008 MANILA , Philippines — No thanks to poverty, a three-year-old boy is now in critical condition after he and his sister used monosodium glutamate (vetsin) for lunch in Sagay City in Negros Occidental. Online news site Visayan Daily Star (www.visayandailystar.com) reported on Thursday that Wilfredo Labajo Jr. was rushed to the Corazon Locsin Montelibano Memorial Regional Hospital , two days after he ate rice mixed with vetsin at their home in Bato village in Sagay City last Monday. The victim’s father, Wilfredo Labajo Sr., said the boy and his sister Jerelyn, 9, put MSG into their plain corn rice as the family could not afford regular rice or any proper viand. Labajo, an "ice buko" vendor, said he and his wife Jenelyn, had prepared the rice for their children before leaving them with neighbors when they went out to sell their products. The boy, who was first brou...

By Cory Quirino Philippine Daily Inquirer First Posted 20:57:00 08/11/2008 MANILA , Philippines —During the French and Indian War in 1754, a woman named Martha Custis danced with George Washington in a ball. Legend has it that she had caught his eye from across the room because of her radiant complexion. After one dance she had won his heart. Bewitched by her beauty, he married her four years later. So here is Martha’s beauty secret. Martha’s facial: Beat 1 egg, add 1 teaspoon honey and ¼ teaspoon apple cider vinegar. Apply to face and neck. After 15-20 minutes, rinse with warm water and dry.

Apple cider and red wine vinegar which are made from whole appl...

This was shared to me by a friend. Believe it or Not! Be very careful when u get caught with dust...as following pictures shows the effects of bad dust to a person. While he was talking, he felt an eye irritation. Thinking that it was just regular dust, he started to rub his eye, in an effort to remove the dust.... then his eyes got really red, and he went and bought some eye drops from a pharmacy....few days passed and his eyes were still red and seems a little swollen. Again he dismissed it as the constant rubbing and that it will go away. The days go by the swelling of his eye got worse, redder and bigger....till he decided to go and see a doctor for a check up. The doctor immediately wanted an operation, being afraid of a tumor growth or cyst. At the operation, what was thought to be a growth or cyst, actually turned out to be a live worm! What was thought initially to be just mere dust actually was an insect's egg. If you do get caught dust, and the pain persists, ...

As part of my present job, I get to encounter a lot of ‘unusual’ diagnoses that I haven’t heard of or probably missed out in med school. I have previously posted on myokimia and abdominal epilepsy. Here’s another one that I thought was a joke at first, but upon checking, realized that it’s really an accepted medical diagnosis. Incidentaloma is a tumor ( -oma ) found by coincidence ( incidental ) without clinical symptoms or suspicion. It is a common problem: up to 7% of all patients over 60 may harbor a benign growth, often of the adrenal gland , which is detected when diagnostic imaging is used for the analysis of unrelated symptoms. With the increase of "whole-body CT scans " as part of health screening programs, the chance of finding incidentalomas is expected to increase. 37% of patients receiving whole-body CT scan may have abnormal findings that need further evaluation. When faced with an unexpected finding on diagnostic imaging, the clinician faces the c...
