Moving slightly away from the zany, an article from China reflects on the integrity of the above stories
and what category they should be listed in. Basically, they should be flushed!
Now in attempts to give the yarn some credibility, they spin some science!

Quote:Mum in China strained so hard on the loo she lost 10 YEARS of memory.
A mum was so badly constipated she strained so hard on the loo and lost 10 years of memory.
'According to news site Qing Bao, the mother who has not been named pushed extremely hard while she
was on the toilet in an attempt to shift her blockage. However, her toilet situation left her having to be rushed
to hospital by her family after her straining was followed by a sudden bout of memory loss.
The incident, which happened two weeks ago, was caused by the blood rushing to her brain after trying to force
her excretion out. Her memory loss lasted for a matter of hours - but caused her deep distress at the time.
She was sent off for urgent brain scans after the family told doctors that her amnesia had lasted around eight hours
long and made her memories jump back 10 years. The news site reports that she couldn’t remember anything from
the past decade.
After spending the night in hospital recovering and brain scan results coming back as normal, the doctor discharged her.
And when the mother’s memory came back, she had no recollection of her memory loss -which could have been caused
by insufficient blood supply to the brain...'

'Neurosurgery specialist Peng Jiaxiong replied to Qing Bao explaining that the heart will help output oxygenated blood
into the brain through the artery, allowing the brain to function properly. When the patient used a sufficient amount of force
to push the blockage out, the abdominal pressure and sudden increase in Intracranial pressure -pressure inside the skull
-to increase the chance of jugular valve -between heart and brain -insufficiency.
The doctor explained in the mother's case, the oxygenated blood that originally passed through the artery to the brain
could not reach the brain. This meant that the blood supply was unbalanced, causing hypoxia in the brain and transient
amnesia.
Dr. Peng also pointed out that people who often carry heavy objects, emotional excitement or forced bowel movements
are high-risk groups, but the overall incidence is not high. He pointed out that the patient should go to the hospital for a
detailed medical examination, which is judged by a professional doctor to find the source of the cause.
Worryingly, he also said this sort of patient is 30 per cent more likely to have a stroke than the average person, so they need
to be checked regularly to avoid increasing the chance of further episodes...'
