Katelyn Thornley, from Texas has been
sneezing 12,000 times a day and approximately 20 times a minute for the
past one month.
She has visited six different doctors since this began and none has been able figure out why she can't stop sneezing.
According to her: "It just started in little
spurts. I just started sneezing. I thought it
was like, oh, I'm just allergic to something.
But now the sneezing fits are taking a
serious toll. I'm constantly in pain with my
abdomen, my legs are hurting because I've
been weak and I can barely eat." The
sneezing has caused her to stop attending
school.
Medics do not believe its caused by
allergies or a virus.
The only relief she gets is during sleep,
which is induced by Benadryl and aided by
Beatles songs that help her relax. Her
parents hope that
somebody with knowledge of the condition
will hear of the story and come forward
with help.
They have to say "Bless you" to her 12,000
times a day and they're getting tired.
