And then, seeing the diseases I will probably never encounter in my whole life leaves some learning points and I have learned a few pearls from House and other of same kin. Like when Gray's thought she had cyanosis and it turned out to be a side effect from Cordarone, I will now never forget that!<br /><br />Cheers, nice blog.<br /><br /><br />David, Sweden<br /> http://pricelesselectricalactivity.blogspot.se/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14025209991541600819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5598689153050249346.post-88779216893275840592012-01-30T11:15:28.643+00:002012-01-30T11:15:28.643+00:00Thank you for your comment.

Will explain more in a seperate post but suffice it to say it involves emigrating and becoming a parent. :-)<br /><br />CheersNesciohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05873864197249227328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5598689153050249346.post-46500284546681740862012-01-13T22:09:22.239+00:002012-01-13T22:09:22.239+00:00With regards to your first point, the character Gr...With regards to your first point, the character Gregory House is a board certified specialist in nefrology and infectious diseases. His previous team consisted of Foreman (neurology), Chase (cardiologist and intensive care) and Cameron (immunologist). Still, this does not cover most specializations that are relevant to the series, so you do have a point.<br /><br />For the second point, House often takes cases no other doctor has been able to solve. He usually assumes they have excluded the likely diagnoses. Then again, House also assumes that most other doctors are intellectually inferior and basically morons, so he contradicts himself by not testing for the most probable things first.Emil Karlssonhttp://debunkingdenialism.com/noreply@blogger.com
