Glad I don't have this! πŸ˜„

Regular followers of my blog know that I enjoy sharing weird and crazy stuff, usually from the realm of animals.

Today I have something weird again, but not what you would normally expect. It's short of a disease.. One that I am glad I don't have!

Allow me to introduce you to...

The Post-Orgasmic Illness Syndrome

The name is pretty self explanatory.

This is a rare condition that affects guys. Tldr, males affected by it get flu-like symptoms everytime they ejaculate. πŸ’¦ πŸ€’

Post-orgasmic illness syndrome (POIS) is a rare but debilitating cluster of postejaculatory symptoms affecting men. It is a chronic disorder manifesting as a constellation of flulike and allergic symptoms within seconds, minutes, or hours after ejaculation.

The condition was first described in 2002 and since then there have been more then 50 cases reported, although the exact prevalence is anyone's guess. Oh well, I know I don't have it πŸ˜‚

First described in 2002, the prevalence and incidence of POIS are still unknown owing to a paucity of studies but is likely under-reported. There are approximately 50 cases of POIS in the literature.

Since this is a very rare syndrome (and possibly largely underreported for obvious reasons) not much is really known about it and the causes behind it. As for treatment it's mainly symptomatic:

Patients have been symptomatically treated with antihistamines, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, and benzodiazepines. A trial of hyposensitization therapy with autologous semen was successful.

However, since the exact pathophysiology is a mystery there is no effective treatment yet.

Here's a link to the paper the quoted text is from if you fancy reading more about it. And here's another one from Wikipedia.

Fun stuff....Short of πŸ˜…

Forgive me but I can't think of not laughing every time I imagine someone ejaculating and after a while they get the flu 😚.
Sometimes I hate my black humor

simple solution: after you nut get wasted with alcohol, at least you'll delay feeling shit for the next day when you have to deal with the hangover :P

According to the PIMP.media you should receive 23.21 PIMP in the next few hours. I screen captured this from the pimp.media site:

However the pending rewards field from the Hive-Engine API indicates a ridiculous amount of 358,270.189 PIMP which is how proofofbrain.blog reports it. I have never got a single PIMP from something that looks like a posting reward. It seems like the pending_token field is just wrong in the Hive-Engine API or perhaps I misunderstand what it means. Yet the same field works well for the POB token and LEO. I just tried it with STEM and proofofbrain.blog agrees with the amount of pending rewards according to Steem Geeks: .

At times leofinance will report NaN for the rewards pending. That's frustrating.

I'd be happy if you can observe and report if you get what you're expected pending rewards. I don't think it ever works the way it supposed to.

I am too lazy to track exact amounts. It's not like I sell these tokens (except pob) just hoard and stake em πŸ˜‚ But as I said, ifi somehow earn 380k pimp I'll donate half to you. That would be hilarious
