- Delete: Definitely a hoax. Parslad (talk) 17:39, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: No relevant ghits on the name or the doctor. PENTAX medical company develops imaging products, not medicines. Appears to be a hoax or a well kept secret. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 17:46, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Certainly a fictitious disease. Note that the contributor is a single-purpose account who has contributed nothing to Wikipedia besides this article. That alone does not disqualify any article, but it may be a contributing factor when the genuineness of the subject matter is in question. •••Life of Riley (talk) 17:54, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. There's nothing anywhere in my medical texts that comes close to describing this condition - not in Harrison's Medicine, not in Cecil's Medicine, nothing on UptoDate. This smacks of a hoax. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.12.102.170 (talk) 17:56, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete, health-related hoax should qualify as blatant ("only known symptom of the disease is pain while sleeping"). NVO (talk) 18:22, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Description of the disease makes absolutely no sense medically. Obviously complete bollocks. Anaxial (talk) 01:23, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as hoax. Edward321 (talk) 01:30, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
