What disease would you choose if you were diagnosed?

    If you were diagnosed with a disease, doesn't matter if it is major or minor, what one would you be comfortable to have if it came down to it? Let me explain a bit better,

    SCENARIO: your in the doctor's office and he/she says to you, listen Joban (your name), you are about to die but there is a way you can still live, I can inject you with a disease of your choice, you will have this disease for the rest of your life. What disease tickles your fancy the doctor would then say? showing you a giant archive of disease in test tubes, all different colours.

    Now you can not choose obesity or alcoholism because they are simply not diseases, no discussion on that one, you have to state your disease and why you could live with it, i'll begin:

    Hypertrichosis or Werewolf Syndrome, reason: recently saw The Wolfman

    i mean come on, we have all seen how cool Teen Wolf was

    Alien Hand syndrome. You could use it as an excuse for so many things. Oh sorry,did i grope you, that wasn't me-it was my hand

    Alien hand syndrome (also known as anarchic hand or Dr. Strangelove syndrome[1]) is an unusual neurological disorder in which one of the sufferer's hands seem to take on a mind of its own.

    A woman was very despondent over not having sex in quite some time. She was becoming agitated and worried that she might not ever find a new mate. In hopes of finding a solution to her problem, she decided to go see a Chinese doctor named Dr. Chang (a sex therapist) see if he could help her.
    When she arrived to his office, she told him her symptoms and he said,"Take off all your crothes and you crawl real real fass away from me on the froor".
    She crawled to the other side of the room, and Dr. Chang said, "Now...you crawl real fass back to me", and she did. Dr. Chang shook his head and said, "You haf read bad case of Zachary Disease...worse I ever see! That is why you have sex probrem".
    The woman was completely confused and asked Dr. Chang to explain exactly what Zachary Disease was and he replied. "Zachary Disease....that when your face rook ZACHARY rike your ass!"
