“Healthy” Lunch Becomes EMERGENCY NIGHTMARE: Medical Mystery Case SOLVED!

Did you figure it out before the end? Let me know what you were thinking!!

People don’t wanna go to the hospital because they don’t wanna be $50,000 in debt in the blink of an eye

This is exactly what killed my fiancée Kate 4 years ago 💔 she was just 26, took the drs too long to figure out what was going on before they realised. She went into cardiac arrest but they managed to get her back and at that point they came and talked to us and said that she would need to be transferred to London ASAP but didn’t think she would make the trip and they where right 💔 20 minutes later she went into a second cardiac arrest which they couldn’t get her back from and she slipped away 💔 we where together for 7 years she had just turned 26 when she died and I was just 28, I still miss her more then words can describe I’m in a new relationship now but she will forever be my one ❤️

You are an AMAZING story teller. I was on the edge of my seat this entire video. It was like watching an episode of House M.D. without the sarcasm and breaking into people's homes haha

This could so easily have been missed in the majority of hospitals. Truly lucky to have survived.

There was this woman I knew quite well who experienced chest pains, she was pushing fifty. She went to the doctor, and he told her, "Women your age don't have heart attacks." She died less than a week later from a heart attack.

My father has drummed into me that there are three things where you ALWAYS go to the doctor ASAP, which basically come down to, is a major life-sustaining organ system at risk of failure: brain (e.g. fever over 104F, serious blow to the head), lungs (e.g. difficulty breathing, low oxygen levels), or heart (e.g. bleeding you cannot stop, palpitations). Waiting a few minutes to see if it improves I can understand, but THREE DAYS? Holy hell she's lucky. Also, as annoying as a long wait with the ER is, if you go in with cardiac symptoms... you're likely to be seen quickly, which is both good news and bad news.

your videos really help me, im a firefighter and 85% of my calls are medical. im already an AEMT but these videos still help alot thank you maam

In Australia late last year, our grocery store chains had to pull bags of baby spinach and mixed salads containing baby spinach because the main supply farm had accidentally mixed a nightshade related weed in with the salad. It caused a few people to have hallucinations, confusion, rapid heartbeats, blurred vision and other symptoms.

Waited 3 days cos she thought symptoms would go away. I can relate to this woman, once went almost 5 days thinking I’d caught a bad stomach bug. I have the mentality of "She’ll be right I’ll ride it out till it buggas off" But it was only because my boss made me go to a doctor that I found out my appendix were hours from exploding 😬

Recently had a family member diagnosed with a heart attack (coronary arteries clogged, all three), so seeing this made me understand the process better and what they were looking for when diagnosing. There were a lots of tests going on in our case, bit overwhelming. So this video is really helpful, love your videos!

As someone who accidentally bit into (what turned out to be ) Autumn crocus, or Colchicum autumnale that had gotten into my chive patch in the garden, and spent the next 2 weeks VERY ill (if I'd actually eaten it instead of spitting it out, I very well might be dead)... saw this one coming a mile away. Not the same plant, but similar circumstances. It also looks a lot like chives before the flowers form. Be careful out there!

I found this video fascinating. I actually have a pacemaker now at 57. I was getting knee surgery last year and on admission at the orthopedic facility they noticed I had heartbeat of 31. I wish shocked. Not thinking I felt badly at all, I mentioned to them that about six years before I used to climb mountains and one day I just couldn’t do it any longer. I was admitted to the hospital on Christmas Eve, I had just worked a full shift at my restaurant. I had put my legs up on the stairs and I was laying flat on the floor because I noticed my right ankle would swell. . I found myself not being able to get up off the floor and failing an incredible pain in my back left side. When I was admitted, they told me that they thought I had I pneumonia and a kidney stone and sent me home. I never again could hike up the back of our hill or mountains ever again. I thought it had something to do with scar tissue in my lungs. Fast forward to 2023 the day that I was going to have my knee surgery. They diagnosed me with mobitz 2😢. I lived with it for so many years not ever knowing. They said I was almost totally asymptomatic, and I had learned to live with it. Thank you for having such interesting videos, and such an expressive face! I feel much better now, and I run around with no issues. It’s too bad I lost so many years of my life coming out of shape.

Medical things really make me anxious. Your videos help me to get used to it without getting triggered. Thank you.

When I had a hip replacement 20 years ago, recovery was in the same ward as cardiac cases. Complications of TJR can require cardiac care (embolisms). Anyway, I was recovering very nicely and walking around on crutches (which is a good idea for that recovery, plus I am a pain in the ass). I found a wall with cardiac monitors for all the patients. I was fascinated. It was late and slow. One of the nurses came up beside me and said, "We had something really interesting a little while ago." Turns out one of the patients there was a cardiac doctor. He was watching the wall just for the heck of it, as we were and called the nurse over very excitedly. He pointed to one of the monitors and said, "This patient is decompens(ating). and dropped to the floor. He had diagnosed himself without knowing it.

"Thanks for the gift, neighbour. Almost kale'd us."

Here I am with an arythmic heart and my cardiologist can’t figure out why. I’m glad I watched this. I’ve had Sarcoidosis for 40 years. My BP stays high lately, regardless of medication. I just had a CTA done and they found no coronary blockage. I don’t think he even considered the Sarcoidosis.

Oh my god what a case you have solved , we need doctors like you in our homeland.

I grew up with Digitalis in the garden. I am so happy to hear this couple was this fortunate. And yes, about the time I heard the word, "Kale,"...

When I saw the abnormal ECG, I knew that there was a problem with the SA/AV node. I thought that it could be hypokalemia, but was shocked to find out that it was caused by a plant! Great content as always Siobhan
