when i sneeze, it's on most occasions a result of looking at a bright light, when i try to explain this to people, no one seems to understand.
does anyone else have this?

There was a girl I used to work with who was adamant that if she needed to sneeze but couldn't, looking at a bright light could help her to achieve it. So you're not alone.

I have the same problem when I'm planting tulips and daffodils.
Maybe it's a bulb thing?

"Photic sneeze reflex is a medical condition by which people sneeze with sudden exposure to bright light, and possibly also sneeze many times consecutively. It is also referred to as photic sneeze response, sun sneezing, photogenic sneezing, the photosternutatory reflex, being photo sensitive, or even whimsically as ACHOO syndrome with its related backronym Autosomal dominant Compelling Helio-Ophthalmic Outburst syndrome. The condition occurs in 17% to 35% of humans. The condition is passed along genetically as an autosomal dominant trait."

My mate used to sneeze every time he was drinking Fosters. I aren't kidding it was a standing joke in the pub every time he had a pint down the snooker club in Newcastle years ago. Never did it with any other lager.
