When a 43-year-old UK man upgraded his bedding from synthetic padding to slightly fancier feather-filled pillows and duvet, he was expecting restful nights. Instead, he was treated to months of lung issues that left him lightheaded and confused. His case is the subject of a new paper in BMJ Case Reports.
According to the report, the man came down with a rare condition that doctors are calling “feather duvet lung.” It’s a silly name, but the condition itself is no laughing matter, and the man’s symptoms originally left doctors a bit stumped.
