Poor, kid. Hope they can cure her...or else, they’ll go away on their own.

I occasionally get sneezing fits where I will do easily a hundred in a row. It seems to be triggered by some little particle lodging itself in just the right spot, as I have learned the only way to stop it is to sneeze through the nose forcefully.

I have heard and read about people who actually die after sneezing for long periods of time.

I would normally try to be impish and joke about this, but this is no joke. When she stops sneezing, then we can make jokes about it.

There’s a Japanese poem, the gist of which is that the author hopes for the day he can look back on the misery he is experiencing now, and think of it fondly. That would be my hope for this girl.

Hey Katelyn. They say being scared cures the hiccups. Maybe it'll work for sneezing too.

 

Worth a try.

If she does not sneeze when she is asleep, it is psychosomatic.

South Texas...allergic to illegals?

Fuzzy math. 20 times per minute is not 12,000 per day. It’s 28,800.

I can see her sneezing a lot, but sneezing every 7.2 seconds she would asphyxiate. That’s if she sneezes during her sleep. According to the article she does sleep, so that means she is sneezing every 3.6 seconds.

86,400 seconds in a day. 12,000 sneezes. I call bullpuppy!

Vagus nerve mainly responsible for sneezing and hiccuping reflexes....once had a guy who had been hiccuping for 4 days.....gave him valium and it stopped. Put her on a course of diazepam...see what happens.

Perhaps a prayer chain on her behalf?

Poor child! I used to have sneezing fits but mine was allergy. Never sneezed as much as she does. I hope they can find a cure for her.
