Palmer Elmer Stover Syndrome
A syndrome brought on by eating dime store confections.
Symptoms can include fast heart rate and blood pressure drops often referred to as "sugar rush", a waxy build up on the upper teeth and tongue, and a compulsive feeling that an important and toxic ingredient has been left off of the nutritional information label. Many educatiors of young children present with this syndrome during mid February. It is speculated that the cause may be in connection with being exposed to celebratory dime store confections around Valentine's Day.

My kindergarden students brought me so many candy gifts this Valentines Day that now I'm suffering from Palmer Elmer Stover Syndrome.
