    Man's head full of air

    linky

    An elderly man who turned up in an emergency department in Northern Ireland after a series of falls has stunned doctors after they found a huge air-filled cavity where part of his brain should have been.

    The 84-year-old was referred to A&E by his doctor after several months of feeling unsteady on his feet and experiencing falls, and three days of weakness in his left arm and leg.

        While the brain scan images appear as though a hunk of the brain has disappeared, Brown said that wasn’t the case; rather, the air cavity had compressed the brain.
        How come 9 pints can give me disabilitating headaches yet enough air pressure to compress his brain by a quarter only leaves him feeling a bit unsteady on his feet???

          He's not dehydrated unlike you.

            Upticked on grounds that all the die-hard Remainers forlornly congregate there!

              That's the shame of knowing that a real man would manage a dozen.

                    Wondered why autocorrect wasn't correcting it. Thought I was to smart using a word it didn't know...
