She doesn't know if it should stop you from sitting down for long periods of time, but thinks it should.
It's kind of like "Peronie's Syndrome", Bill Clinton's medical problem. Although not terribly debilitating, under the rigors of the battlefield the posessor of a pilonidal cyst will quickly be reduced to working in non-combatant jobs.
At one time in WWII over 50,000 men in the combat arms were on light-duty (driving jeeps or holding down the tent flaps at battalion headquarters) because of pilonidal cysts.
This was an egregious waste of expensive training and was exceedingly disruptive of manpower planning.
It made more sense to simply excuse these guys from military service and return them to the civilian workforce where the problem was more readily accomodated.
People who want the possessors of pilonidal cysts to work in a combat zone are actually aiding the enemy.
I think Edwards is going to appreciate our Ann Coulter immensely once he is free to openly persue his quarry.
She assumes he’s never had it excised all these years.
For those who might want to look it up, it's "Peyronie's Disease," "penile induration," or "Induratio Penis Plastica (IPP)."
Although not terribly debilitating, under the rigors of the battlefield the posessor of a pilonidal cyst will quickly be reduced to working in non-combatant jobs.
And Peyronie's Disease doesn't generally provide an infection risk in unsanitary, "foxhole" conditions; a pilonidal cyst often does.
I am not a physician, but I don't think the Breck girl's wife is, either.
