While channel surfing for some brain food on the television, we watched the first half hour of a program on `Discovery Health`:
Mystery Diagnosis
The Woman Who Went Crazy
TV-PG, CCA young mother begins to experience panic attacks and suffers a terrifying seizure. Treated and released she is sent home; however later experiences episodes of paranoia and delusions. Doctors struggle to find out what’s causing her psychotic symptoms.
The woman was suffering from ovarian cancer, which was taken out! She had delusions and had to be strapped down in the hospital bed. Only a specialist from another facility diagnosed her mysterious medical condition. Her auto-immune system did something to her body, causing her to have psychotic symptoms. The body could respond, creating anti-gens and sometimes hair, teeth and nails are found in the cancerous area! Weird!
So if Barry and pals think they could mess around with the current medical technology and try to socialize health insurance, people like this woman would been MIS-DIAGNOSED and ultimately committed to the nut house.
