I guess I was too busy sneezing to notice if anyone else was sneezing.
I sneeze at bright light as well. I am allergic to a few things, I wonder if that has something to do with it? Maybe the Nasal passages being more sensitive?
IANAD, much less your doctor - but that sounds like vitreous detachment, a common and non-serious condition that happens to people as they age.
shudder It does, but I hope that’s not it!
Dung, my MIL had serious heart issues in her 50s ad 60s. When she was having an episode one the things that bothered her was the visual anomalies. She described halos and sparkly lights and big black spots. She insisted on seeing many eye doctors, they all said that there was not an eye issue other than her age. They didn’t mind selling her new glasses everytime,btw. We couldn’t convince it was her heart and blood pressure doing this. We weren’t sure of that was it, of course, it just seemed to coincide with her episodes. Have your blood pressure checked.
I don’t want that either! 
I’ve had these symptoms a long time and I’ve always assumed they’re associated with the migraines that I had so frequently as a kid.
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
Yea migraines sound plausible to me, sorry I missed that part. Come to think of it my MIL had migraine issues too.
I feel pretty lame contributing with my minor oddity - referred pain. Abdominal distress manifests as a sharp pain in my left shoulder. This was discovered when I was 6 and ruptured my spleen in an accident. I complained about a very sore shoulder. They examined me, and could find nothing wrong but I was insistent, so I was sent to school with my arm in a sling. I collapsed the next day, spent 2 weeks in the hospital and all that. It was then my family learned of my little oddity. Even now if I’m sick to my stomach or especially if I over eat, my left shoulder hurts like hell.
I also sneeze at the sun and bright lights. I thought this happened to everyone until perhaps 10 years ago. I just checked with my office room-mate - he does not have it nor had he ever heard of it. In the middle of this conversation, we had another workmate pop in. He had heard of it, but also did not experience it. So, 1/3 here…
I have a spot on the bottom of my right foot that if I scratch it, I can feel ringing in my right ear.
I don’t feel pain in the soles of my feet and also don’t have a tickle sensation. I feel pressure and temperature (so hot sand does hurt).
One time I climbed a fence and heard a pop through my shoe. Next it felt like I peed on my foot. When I took off my shoe, blood poured out in a thick stream. I went to the doctor and showed him how you could see the bone and he said: “Wait… you don’t feel that?!”
If I walk around barefoot I rip my feet to shreds very easily. But I used to freak out my mum by running on gravel or stony beaches, which was fun. 
My first thought as “not a real doctor” was that she needs to pee before getting in the shower.
I don’t cry when I’m hurt, I laugh. I don’t know how common it is, maybe people just don’t mention it.
Never!
Not all that rare, but I’d never heard of it and none of my friends or family had either.
Occasionally I get a blocked salivary duct. It’s horrible! The mere *thought *of food, especially sour foods like lemons or pickles, will cause me to salivate and all the saliva will swell up the side of my face because it can’t go out into my mouth. Eating is hard, and I’ll gobble up food really quickly just to get it over with and get full before the pain starts.
My husband gets these all the time. Drives him crazy. He actually seeks out sour foods when it happens to try to force the blockage to clear.
Over 18 years ago, my oncologist quite accidentallly discovered that I had a pheocromacytoma, a very, very rare type of adrenal tumor. I had been experiencing weird symptoms – sudden increased heart rate, shortness of breath, nausea, lightheadness – for eight years but no doctor showed any interest when I asked about them. Turns out that pheos are almost always fatal; the sugeon who removed it said it was the size of an orange and he was very surprised I had survived so long.
Well, I’ll chime in to say that’s one type of aura that I see before a serious migraine. Mine are almost like sparks. If hers are shiny, rather than dark spots, and they go away relatively quickly, I’m guessing they’re related to her auras, and not the other.
I thought the same thing. When I had my first bout of Bell’s Palsy, they rushe dme into the ER to see if I’d had a stroke. Apparently, the test is to try and close the eye on the affected side; if it rolls back in your head like those old timey baby doll eyes, its Bells Palsy.
I got to discover the joy of reactive arthritis.
It’s the wonderful side effect of some bacterial infections where other parts of the body develop inflammatory arthritis. In my case a throat infection led to both ankles swelling up like balloons. For those who clicked through to wiki, the infection was not the most common cause - chlamydia. It started to subside pretty quickly once they switched my antibiotics and I got to start sleeping a normal amount indoors.
And you think this is odd because … ?
