Even with the internet I was unable to explain to my GP back in 2006 what this was. All I could present was 'I dunno, maybe it's epilepsy, it's like an electrical zap sound deep in my head at times', I was told it was nonsense and sent away without any further knowledge.
Sometimes I wonder if it's remotely related to the other obscure 'unable to name until post-2010 internet knowledge' syndrome that I suffer - Alice in Wonderland syndrome. Although I do know that the cause for that was operations on/or my amblyopic strabismus 40+ years ago. Certainly it appeared first while I was convalescing.
edit: to add a little bit of clarification here, sometime around 2010 I learnt what they were both called due to one of those clickbaity buzzfeed-style '50 bizarre medical issues you won't believe' style pieces.
