Ah But No Choo
I usually cannot complete a sneeze. There is the Ah but the Choo
does not follow. This has been happening for over a year. I am a 57
year old man in excellent health. I sneezed normally my entire life.
Then, I got self conscious about sneezing and started failing to
complete sneezes.
I have gone up to 10 weeks without sneezing. I will
infrequently sneeze and think I am cured. However, the inability to
complete a sneeze soon returns. I have researched endlessly and asked
questions and have seen all types of Doctors. No one has heard of this
rare problem. They all say not sneezing will cause no medical problems. There is scarce research about this because it is not medically
significant or hardly ever seen in people. My psychologist and a
neurologist say this is absolutely a psychological condition.
I have no
other symptoms or consequences of this condition ,just frustration. I
sneeze once in a while and feel "cured" only to have the inability
resume. I actually now go into a state of anxiety
when I feel the urge to sneeze for fear of how depressed I will be when
the sneeze aborts. Any information will be greatly appreciated.
Thank
you.
David
