Genetic mutation allows Scottish woman to resist pain and heal faster

A woman in Scotland has been found to have a previously-unknown genetic mutation that makes her almost completely immune to pain, and on top of that her wounds heal faster and she seems to have generally reduced levels of anxiety and fear. Geneticists are now studying the genes responsible to see if they could lead to new potential treatments for pain relief.

Love the name they gave the gene. Even nerds have a sense of humor. And I’m positive that most Scots have some level of this…how else could we wear kilts in the winter and enjoy it.
