Diseases With Awesome Sounding Names
A week or two ago when I was waiting at Quest Diagnostics to give my million vials of blood, I looked on the Diagnostic Test order form the reproductive endocrinologist gave me and noticed the coolest sounding disease ever:
Maple Syrup Urine Disease.
How cool is that? I mean the name, not the disease. I'm sure that part sucks.

how bizarre.
at least it's a disease you can pronounce. why do they make diseases so hard to pronounce?? "dude... i already have a freakin' DISEASE! now i've gotta tell people i have to learn how to pronounce xidoulslfkae?!?"
:)
I’ll never be able to look at my pancakes the same way again!
I think all diseases/medical conditions should be named after pancake toppings.
e.g.,
Butter Poo (diarrhea)
