Stroking Off

My god, how horrifying is this? Sex can lead, not only to an STD, but to a stroke.

Sex triggered a life-threatening stroke in a healthy 35-year-old Illinois woman, her doctors report.

Sex- and orgasm-triggered strokes in relatively young women and men are rare, but not unheard of. They require a combination of factors and events not unusual in themselves, but which are highly unlikely to occur at the same time.

“This young woman … while having intercourse had numbness on the left side of her face, slurred speech, and weakness in her left arm,” Biller tells WebMD. “When she was transferred to our care six hours after onset, she was completely unable to move her left arm, her face was paralyzed, her speech was garbled, and she was in a state of panic.”

If you do have an orgasm-induced stroke, better hope it happens while you’re actually having sex, instead of, you know, just masturbating. Because saving yourself from a stroke is not easy, as recounted by Jill Bolte Taylor. This is amazing:

Thanks to tipper NaFun.

One of my friends had a minor stroke during sex last year. It turned out to be a symptom of a much more serious problem that they were able to catch early on due to the stroke. Still scary as shit for her and her husband, but at least the problem was caught early.

And there I thought I had achieved a new dimension of sexual ecstasy. Nope, just potentially life threatening blood clot in the brain. Way to take the magic out of fucking, dominic.

I believe these kinds of events are happening in most of us on a regular basis; when they get big and really noticeable, the medical profession calls it 'a stroke'.

It can lead to that.

But it's usually going to prolong your life, actually.
