House M.D. Mafia - Doctor Test Round - Feel free to jump in!

[KuroiXHF]

Ask the patient:

How long he's been pissing blood.
How long he's been living in the house with torn carpet and cracked walls.

Action:

Start patient on dialysis.

/sigh

i still kinda' think it's meningitis and the fucked up kidney is just the result of sepsis maybe (?)

it's simple enough where it passes the "everyone's heard of it" test. the spinal tap came up positive (for ... something apparently) and youve got all the neurological symptoms.

no report of a headache when asked about pain...

take patient's temperature

Tth:
"What are you talking about? I only noticed this when the nurses pointed it out and my home? I don't know. IT just happened. I wrk a lot at home. It just happens."

You started your patient on dialysis. You did a very good thing and the board took notice. You are no longer hated.

Antihero - the temperature is 98.8 degrees.

Masquerade - the ultrasound showed no other damages in the abdomen.
"No. Please don't call my wife! This isn't the first time something like this happened. I didn't want my wife to know because she wanted me to go to the hospital earlier. I've been having muscle spasms and it's weird. My mind isn't telling my body to go to the right places. When I go to grab the spoon in the cupboard I grab the fork. It's embarrassing. "

I will post again with the marts result

[TellTaleHeart]

I was hated to begin with? @.@

[TellTaleHeart]

Ask the patient:

How old his house is.

Action:

Start patient on chelation therapy for lead poisoning.

[KuroiXHF]

Matt, gfr of 10 per minute.
Also, the ultrasound found small lesions on the kidneys.

And tth, you were considered hated for putting a seizure patient on the treadmill

[KuroiXHF]

Wait, my mistake. Dierfire is still hated. Tth is liked

[Charloux]

I put him there...

[KuroiXHF]

Sorry. Yes. That's what I meant.

[Charloux]

No matter how much i think i can't connect accute kidney failure with concussions. I doubt you would put 2 separate problems in a trial run though.

[Shadow Dancer]

- assume the anti seizure was just to stop the seizure. He has since been off.
- matt p, this is where my lack of medical research comes in. Assume the blood test simply indicate a lack of kidney function.

Yeah, this is where this mechanic gets a bit meh. The general concept is great (and House is a flavour I'd like to play for a change), but you need to keep it simple in a way that makes the game still accessible to players without extensive medical training.

[Shadow Dancer]

Antihero - the temperature is 98.8 degrees.

That's about 37°C. right? So pretty normal.

[Shadow Dancer]

So his house is a dumb. Am I right to assume that if there had been any signs of the obvious like drugs, potential toxic hazards (like stacks of old batteries or whatever), spoiled food or vermin, you'd have told me, right?
So what about the "sludge" business? Sludge is moist, so did I get that from the drainpipe in his bathroom or does that mean there is actually a lot of moisture in the house? Like, is the roof leaking?

[KuroiXHF]

What I told you from the house search shows all things relevant from a normal house search. Unless you were worried and specified sone thing obscure like the fabric of his underwear, you know what you need to know.whether it's relevant is up to you

[Shadow Dancer]

Okay, some one else can check the sludge for fungi then.
Instead I am going to get a bit more history.
We don't even have any real patient history so far, as far as I can see.
So I want to ask the patient about any prior illnesses he or any one in his family had (including the alleged wife of course), and also when those happened and where he was in the last couple of years. He must have gotten around at least a bit. Is there a list of all the yard sales he went to? And finally, did his alleged wife allegedly live in the same dumpster he lives in when she had her alleged miscarriages (and again, how long ago exactly was that, allegedly)?

Since every body lies, I'd also like to search the archives for all available medical records that could confirm whatever he answers to the above questions (so this I assume is considered my action then)

[Charloux]

Jesus i forgot about this. Can someone do a magnetic resonance?

[Masquerade]

Epilepsy.

[Masquerade]

Or Huntington's

[Charloux]

Epilepsy doesn't explain accustic kidney failure and they usually don't have eyebrows.
Huntington's can be checked via the MR brain scan.
Question for patient: Are those eyebrows or is it just a black marker?

[Masquerade]

I'm so happy I became co-mod for the actual game. I don't have the patience for this.
Oh hey an edit button! So this^ sounds a lot worse then I meant it. I'm having a lot of fun with this, but the waiting for new information isn't my thing I guess.

Can't find anything that both has kidney failure and a swollen brain. The kidneys are probably a consequence of the actual disease so lets just treat that with dialysis since that seems to work.
I believe I asked for medical history but question didnt get answered.
Kuroi, I asked this in the previous period and didn't get answered: Sir, can you tell me about other illnesses that run in your family?

[Masquerade]

Eyebrows?

[Charloux]

I have 2 guys in my school who have epilepsy. Guess what? They have no eyebrows!

[Masquerade]

I never heard of that.

[Shadow Dancer]

accustic kidney failure? What the heck did you do with that ultrasound?!!?

[KuroiXHF]

Masquerade, I swore I answered that. No medical issues. Just the hypertension and his wife's pre eclampsia.

[Antihero]

"No. Please don't call my wife! This isn't the first time something like this happened. I didn't want my wife to know because she wanted me to go to the hospital earlier. I've been having muscle spasms and it's weird. My mind isn't telling my body to go to the right places. When I go to grab the spoon in the cupboard I grab the fork. It's embarrassing. "

no psychiatric symptoms, huh?

... butthole...

point out that the wife is probably exposed to the same toxic he was and that it may have been related to the two miscarriages

that should get her in here.

[kuribo]

Can we still /in? I got a question I wanna ask this guy
