Top 7 coolest Disorders/Diseases to have

Have you ever wished you had one particular super power that can make you do things normal human beings cannot do? Well I have always wished to have many super powers, have Google brain, or hyperthymesia oh yeah, have unlimited funds, an the ability to fly. There are some disorders/Diseases that may sound cool to you but some of the people having it are not finding it funny. Here are 7 disorders you may wish you where born with.




Hyperthymesia

I think this is the coolest , hyperthymesia is the condition of possessing an extremely detailed autobiographical memory. Hyperthymesiacs remember an abnormally vast number of their life experiences. Cool huh?? Individuals with hyperthymesia can recall almost every day of their lives in near perfect detail, as well as public events that hold some personal significance to them. Those affected describe their memories as uncontrollable associations, when they encounter a date, they "see" a vivid depiction of that day in their heads. Recollection occurs without hesitation or conscious effort. Tell me you don't want such a cool disease ?


Exploding Head syndrome


You think you can whisper and nobody else around can hear you right ? Don't try that around a person having exploding head syndrome . the jarring sound of an explosion wakes you up in the middle of the night, it's usually because a transformer blew. But for some people, hearing such sounds is an everyday occurrence – and it's all in their heads. People with Exploding Head Syndrome hear all kinds of racket in the night, startling them out of a deep sleep. Every sound tends to be magnified. such incidents are thought to be brought on by anxiety or extreme fatigue, and the condition is not associated with any physical ailment.


Foreign Accent Syndrome

Imagine waking up to find that you suddenly have a foreign accent, and it's completely out of your control. Crazy as it sounds, Foreign Accent Syndrome is not just a pretentious affectation among people who want to sound exotic or sophisticated. This involuntary change in speech usually occurs after a brain injury like a stroke or head trauma, although in at least one case it seems to have been caused by a severe migraine. The specific way in which speech is affected varies in each individual, making it sound as if the person has an accent specific to a particular area of the world.

Aquagenic Urticaria – Allergy to Water


Being allergic to substances like milk or peanuts is difficult enough – but imagine breaking out in painful, burning welts every time your skin was touched by water. That's daily life for people with Aquagenic Urticaria, who are allergic to water in all forms – even tears. Some people will tell you oh..how I hate bathing, count yourself lucky your not allergic to water. One British woman with this highly unusual condition can't even hold her son because if he sweats, she “gets covered in sore lumps.” “I am a prisoner in my own body,” Michaela Dutton told The Metro. “I don't see friends because they wrongly think it's contagious.” for some of you out there that hates bathing, here is an excuse for you.


Congenital Insensitivity to Pain


A word without pain sounds great, right? Except that it would be a complete disaster. Just ask anyone afflicted with Congenital Insensitivity to Pain. Sure, they're immune to torture and won't ever complain of a toothache or a sprained ankle, but for children in particular, this disorder often results in debilitating injuries. It's all too easy to scratch your eye, burn yourself, bite off the tip of your tongue or walk around on a broken bone oblivious to the problem. The condition is caused by either large amounts of endorphins in the brain, or congenital mutations that dull pain-sensing neurons.

Blue Skin Disorder

How do you want to standout ?with this disorder you will be spotted out no matter where you are, For the Fugate family of Kentucky, blue skin was a hereditary trait that passed down from one generation to the next over 162 years due to a rare blood disorder called methemoglobinemia. Essentially, because blood is less oxygenated, it appears blue rather than red through the skin. Since the cause of the family's disorder was discovered, all members carrying the gene have been treated and appear normal. But sometimes people get a strange blue tinge to their skin even without this affliction – argyria is a blue skin disorder associated with consumption of the health supplement colloidal silver.

Syndrome X Never growing older


Richard walker the  74- years old scientist who  believes that the key to ending ageing may lie in a rare disease that doesn’t even have a real name, “Syndrome X”. He has identified four girls with this condition, marked by what seems to be a permanent state of infancy, a dramatic developmental arrest. He suspects that the disease is caused by a glitch somewhere in the girls’ DNA.
