Not tonight, dear, I have a headache

Posted by in 4 Nov, 2009   

From CNN Health (via Fark): Sex, then amnesia…and it’s no soap opera.

The article describes transient global amnesia (TGA), a loss of short-term memory. TGA is usually a one-time event, usually occurs in people over 50 years of age, and is caused by strenuous activity — frequently sex. TGA appears to have some link with migraines and headaches.

So that old “Not tonight, dear, I have a headache” excuse just might be legitimate.

PS: I wasn’t sure which category(ies) to assign to this post. I settled on 1) “Entertainment,” because sex can be quite entertaining; and 2) “Oops” seemed like the other obvious choice.
