Why

Why don't you bring a documented case refrence? Is this a real condition? What triggers the Hematidrosis? This is a totally stubby article.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.132.116.94 (UTC) (talk • contribs) 00:28, 12 May 2006

I'm not absolutely certain about this, but didn't experiments occur in Nazi concentration camps where Hematidrosis occurred?Hspstudent (talk) 03:59, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

Side Effects of Hematidrosis

To my understanding of the rare disorder, an important side effect of Hematidrosis is the numbing of the nerves associated with burst capilaries and sweat. In such cases, the body is attempting to counteract the extreme stress levels by protecting the body's reaction to pain. Quite remarkable! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.207.21.82 (talk) 16:33, 10 April 2007 (UTC).

Jesus experienced this rare disorder after accepting his fate, which would result in his cruxifiction and death; see Luke 22:44. - Eric Riddick —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.91.107.250 (talk) 18:38, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

First records come from the Bible

Luke 22:44 records that "And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground." Indicating that Jesus suffered from Hematidrosis as he struggled with his fate of knowing he soon would be killed or murdered.

The oddity about this, is that Jesus was a male, and most patients of Hematidrosis are female; since it's mostly caused from when a female is in her cycle; and a little more than often stress combined with a female's cycle result in the phenomenon. This could be an indication Jesus did have small chromosomal or hormonal differences from a regular human being.
