However, it was the worst thing, the young doctor Cha Jo Han every day took blood self-tests, daily body temperature measurement, in anxiety and in the end his body was like a bomb that exploded slowly. .
The 71-year-old woman has undergone many surgeries without painkillers
Step out into real life, 71-year-old Jo Cameron, never knowing what pain is.
Mrs. Jo Cameron
And she is one of 50,000 people in the world suffering from this rare syndrome called CIP (Inability to feel pain).
Interestingly, at the age of 65, she discovered her body has "super powers". Doctors realized she did not need to take any pain relievers while undergoing a serious surgery on her arm.
After the surgery, she was referred to geneticists at the University College London and Oxford University, where tests showed she had a genetic mutation, which scientists believe influenced transmission. pain effect, mood and memory.
Ms. Jo has replaced her hip and finger joints without anesthesia and pain relief with only 2 paracetamol tablets per day.
Jo told BBC Scotland: “Looking back, I realized I didn't need painkillers, I was wondering about this. I gave birth to a baby without pain, no cold, no heat, and even the cutlery didn't feel anything. I still have a normal life and realize that nothing different from everyone. "
The danger comes from insensitive disease
In the stress and depression tests, the Scottish woman scored 0, which the scientists found very strange. Mrs. Jo was always optimistic and never panicked, even in situations where most of us would be severely shaken.

However, it is really a danger because the insensitivity to the pain makes Jo do not know what her body is, if an acute appendix pain occurs, unimaginably, too dangerous!
Dr. Felicia Axelrod, professor of Pediatrics and Neurology at New York University School of Medicine (USA), said: “There are different types of nerve cells that help us feel all the different feelings. We may lose our hearing but also the ability to touch. But, the CIP is completely powerless. Because, CIP prevents any feeling of pain, heat or cold transmitted to the brain ”.
Experts like Dr. Axelrod do not know exactly how many people in the world today have CIP. Currently, Japan has the only CIP patient association in the world, with a total of 67 members.
