Actually it is. While prepping for a C-section, my leg was hanging down to the side of the table before they gave me the anesthetic. It kicked in so fast that when they put me to lie back, I kept asking a nurse to put my leg up but they kept ignoring me. IT WAS UNCOMFORTABLE HANGING DOWN TO THE SIDE LIKE THAT!!! Finally, a nurse told me that my leg was on the table and moved the screen for me to see it. Yet the sensation of it hanging down remained.

@homelessalcoholic2716 I've been on a pain management journey for 15 years. And I don't care what you say. There is NO amount of pill seeking junkie behavior that a doctor can witness in his career that excuses him to take a singular xray of a complaint spot of a patient, send him to physical therapy, and tell him to his face "don't come back here." Nor does it excuse a "pain management specialist" to say "I think you're drug seeking, and I'm not gonna give you any except for NSAIDS." When the patient has already told him he's a month out from surgery.
@@warrenward6294What do you mean that doesn’t excuse them? If they have seen a 100 patients like you who said the same thing in order to get pain meds they didn’t need why would they randomly start believing the next one to walk in? I’m not saying you are wrong, not at all. All I’m saying is, you don’t know anything about what it is like to be a Doctor. You are judging them for not magically seeing that you are actually looking for pain relief when they have likely seen dozens of patients that present the same way looking for narcotics. Many people that are drug seeking do have legitimate things in their history such as surgery or documented health issues. Here is the bottom line, narcotic pain medication is not nearly as effective over long periods and will eventually cause you to be MORE sensitive to pain. It also doesn’t treat the root cause (assuming there is one which is fixable) of said pain. The goal of long term pain management is to make the pain manageable, not to entirely eliminate it. Finally, and most important, you are some random guy on the internet whose medical hx I have no access to. You could just as easily be exaggerating as telling the truth. You also don’t know what those doctors saw in your chart and don’t know their experience/background etc. As someone else said, there are waaaaay to many variables for anyone to just take your word for it or make any judgements against you. People love to just take things at face value on the internet, even when it’s well known that people lie their ass off on here all day long. So, I’m sorry you are going through this and I wish you luck, but try and see it from the medical professionals standpoint next time. It might even help you get through to them that you aren’t some random drug seeker (if that is in fact the case)
Phantom limb is a real condition in amputated patients, and one of the techniques to work with this people is using mirror therapy, but it need a lot of sessions to see the effects...
Tbf he was sedated and didn't know House was a doctor and initially thought he was gonna hurt him so there was probably so much adrenaline rushing through him to distract him from the pain
For anyone whose interested in what House did, what the guy was going through is called phantom limb. Its when a person can still feel a limb when it is no longer there. Many times people describe pain in their arm even though it is no longer present. He put his arm that was still there and used a mirror to reflect it to represent the missing limb. Its used to in a way trick the brain that the arm is still there and its fine.
@@benrandom6053 should ask the question too while you're at it, save him the trouble of having to say "yes you may ask your question" and you the trouble of having to wait for the answer later
@@camelopardalis84 even going by that logic, which i must say i personally don't find that very logical, you're still waiting for the guy to say "yes you can ask me a question", then you still have to type the long question AND wait the additional amount of time for the answer alternatively you ask the question, either get an answer later or don't and you've wasted considerably less time for it
@@zhuzzir I know it's pointless to compare pain levels, but I share similar wonders if this pain is something I will deal with for the rest of my life.

Dude House MD goes off the rails as early as the second season, they could easily have a whole other show where it’s just that hospitals legal team trying to settle malpractice lawsuits.
Oh, I studied this in my neurology class. The reason phantom pain exists is because the body thinks the arm is still there which creates issues. By using mirror therapy you're able to trick the brain into thinking it's moving the imaginary arm which resolves the pain. That's a pretty simplified explanation, but it's really cool stuff.
If anyone is interested in this topic of the phantom limb go and read "the woman who died laughing" or any of his research, they are very interesting and simply explained even to someone who is not an expert in the field
House is the ultimate utilitarian. He's willing to do whatever it takes as long as the ends justify the means. He'll help suffering people whether they want him to or not
The Canadian government mostly stayed out of Vietnam. But many private citizens actually joined America and fought there so a Canadian Vietnam Veteran isn’t as rare as you would think
That's false. There are hundreds of variations of landmines, with different triggers, sensitivities, and force because many of them are designed for different purposes.
The vast majority of landmines that were actually used don’t have pressure-release triggers, and it is a myth caused by wartime propaganda and media that they were particularly common. *However,* it is _also_ an oversimplification to say that _no_ landmines had pressure-release triggers. For example, there was a particular landmine nicknamed “Bouncing Betty” that used a pressure-release trigger to bounce into the air after pressure was released and then detonate. While that specific model was not used in Vietnam (as it was a German mine), they did get used, and there are others that work similarly. They were just far less common than most other trigger mechanisms, with the most common being the pressure-trigger, where detonation is triggered by the pressure itself rather than by adding then removing pressure. (Which makes sense since anti-personnel mines are meant to kill and/or maim one or more people (and anti-tank mines to destroy a tank), not to hold someone in place while someone else tries to disarm it. The only reason many so-called “bounding mines” used a different trigger was due to them needing to be in the air when they detonated, in order to maximize the number of casualties.) Whether or not it’s plausible that a pressure-release-triggered landmines would be used in Vietnam, I cannot say. I will say it’s far more plausible in this situation with a single landmine that a boy triggered. And it’s at least within the realm of plausibility that the soldier in question tackled or pulled the boy off of a standard landmine after having seen him about to step on it but was barely too late to prevent detonation. I will also note that there are mines that aren’t triggered by pressure but by other things like a tripwire, movement, sound, vibration, or magnetism. With all that said, it is common in fictional media for landmines to have a pressure-release trigger, both due to the aforementioned propaganda and because it adds tension. I’m afraid it’s probably a lost cause at this point.
As bad as I felt for this man, no amount of pain gives you the right to be an ass to your neighbors and demanding absolute silence is nothing short of childish. Just because you won a medal and lost a hand doesn't give you any right to be a jerk, maybe if he had spent more time in therapy and less time hating the world, he would have found that mirror trick much sooner.

Basically, phantom-limb pain is usually psychosomatic, so it’s not necessarily caused by a signal actually being sent to the brain. The brain thinks the arm is still there, but it’s not getting updates as to that arm’s status, so, in this case, it’s sorta locked into whatever the last signal(s) were sent before the arm was lost. The mirror thing allows for new information from a “present” arm to override that, ending the phantom-pain. (Note: “psychosomatic” doesn’t mean it’s any less real or that it’s “all in your head”; it just means there isn’t a root physiological cause for the symptom(s), but rather that the brain itself is triggering them.) In House’s case, the limb is still there, actively sending pain signals to the brain. And there is something actively causing that pain as well. And, unlike lesser sensations like light pressure or even short-term pain, long-term severe pain is a lot harder to override when it is being actively sent to the brain. As such, the mirror trick won’t work.
BREAKS MY HEART TO KNOW~ How many souls are living in the same grip of persistent pain for an endless list of injuries... physical, emotional, and spiritual. depths of relevance here.. peace and healing ❤
if people r wondering yes, that is an actual way for amputees to get rid of phantom pain, although im pretty sure its not that instant, its a thing u have to do regularly for weeks before it goes away
From 1954 to 1973, almost 2,000 members of the Canadian Armed Forces and a few hundred diplomats served in Vietnam on two international commissions to help bring peace and stability to the country.
Privately, some Canadians contributed to the war effort. Canadian corporations sold war material to the U.S. government. In addition, at least 30,000 Canadians volunteered to serve in the U.S. armed forces during the war. At least 134 Canadians died or were reported missing in Vietnam.
As a fellow (5 time) amputee I can absolutely assure you that while mirror therapy works for things like needing to stretch the muscles in a missing limb, it does not get rid of pain like this!

*However,* it is _also_ an oversimplification to say that _no_ landmines had pressure-release triggers. For example, there was a particular landmine nicknamed “Bouncing Betty” that used a pressure-release trigger to bounce into the air after pressure was released and then detonate. While that specific model was not used in Vietnam (as it was a German mine), they did get used, and there are others that work similarly. They were just far less common than most other trigger mechanisms, with the most common being the pressure-trigger, where detonation is triggered by the pressure itself rather than by adding then removing pressure. (Which makes sense since anti-personnel mines are meant to kill and/or maim one or more people (and anti-tank mines to destroy a tank), not to hold someone in place while someone else tries to disarm it. The only reason many so-called “bounding mines” used a different trigger was due to them needing to be in the air when they detonated, in order to maximize the number of casualties.)
Whether or not it’s plausible that a pressure-release-triggered landmines would be used in Vietnam, I cannot say. I will say it’s far more plausible in this situation with a single landmine that a boy triggered. And it’s at least within the realm of plausibility that the soldier in question tackled or pulled the boy off of a standard landmine after having seen him about to step on it but was barely too late to prevent detonation.
I will also note that there are mines that aren’t triggered by pressure but by other things like a tripwire, movement, sound, vibration, or magnetism.
With all that said, it is common in fictional media for landmines to have a pressure-release trigger, both due to the aforementioned propaganda and because it adds tension. I’m afraid it’s probably a lost cause at this point.
We finally found out who john wicks primary care doctor was 😂
I never realized House is just Dexter with a better childhood. 😂
“hi honey!” made me roll
As bad as I felt for this man, no amount of pain gives you the right to be an ass to your neighbors and demanding absolute silence is nothing short of childish. Just because you won a medal and lost a hand doesn't give you any right to be a jerk, maybe if he had spent more time in therapy and less time hating the world, he would have found that mirror trick much sooner.
Neurologist Dr. Oliver Sachs wrote a lot about phantom limb pain. After he had an amputation, he learned much more and wrote about what he'd learned.
40,000 Canadians volunteered for Vietnam, while 100,000 hippies, avoided Vietnam by going to Canada.
Avoided? Joining was voluntary, there wasn’t a draft.
@@mrminkman952 The United States military drafted men to serve in the Vietnam War between 1964 and 1973, conscripting around 1.9 million people.

@@mrminkman952 The Vietnam War draft was compulsory for men. However, more than half of those men were deferred, exempted, or disqualified, especially college and graduate students. As a result, only 25% of the military force in combat zones were draftees.
Mans went full Dexter
Phantom pain
The "hi honey!" 🤣🤣🤣
Hi honey😊
one of the my favorites episodes :')
I wish i had someone like house as my doc since im in pain and i feel i cant control my body and losing memories, all my life i go from specialist to specialist but i can't get fixed because they dont know what is wrong, PLEASE someone in comment section help me get better treatment
I hope you can afford medical tourism one day
Try to give more details. Gather your symptoms, results of blood work, MRI, ct and make a history.
@@xakeres_crow i did all of that, still no result
Go to , UAR , Turkey, or Germany. The have specialists who will listen to you and do tests for much less. Keep hope alive❤
I love how as he knocks dude out he's like "hi honey" lol
Can't House just do this to himself with his own leg? Or does the limb have to be missing? Or do you have to not know the trick?
Phantom limb pain is completely different than what house suffers from.
So yes the limb needs to be gone
House had a chunk of his thigh removed.
Basically, phantom-limb pain is usually psychosomatic, so it’s not necessarily caused by a signal actually being sent to the brain. The brain thinks the arm is still there, but it’s not getting updates as to that arm’s status, so, in this case, it’s sorta locked into whatever the last signal(s) were sent before the arm was lost. The mirror thing allows for new information from a “present” arm to override that, ending the phantom-pain. (Note: “psychosomatic” doesn’t mean it’s any less real or that it’s “all in your head”; it just means there isn’t a root physiological cause for the symptom(s), but rather that the brain itself is triggering them.)
In House’s case, the limb is still there, actively sending pain signals to the brain. And there is something actively causing that pain as well. And, unlike lesser sensations like light pressure or even short-term pain, long-term severe pain is a lot harder to override when it is being actively sent to the brain. As such, the mirror trick won’t work.
Thanks for the replies people. Very well explained, makes total sense. Cheers.
BREAKS MY HEART TO KNOW~ How many souls are living in the same grip of persistent pain for an endless list of injuries... physical, emotional, and spiritual.
depths of relevance here..
peace and healing ❤
😂😂😂😂
Believe it or not, Dr. House really does care about ppl ❤❤❤
😂
I love House ! This was a brilliant way to deal with the problem neighbor by dealing with his problem brilliantly.❤
“Yeah that’s the fent kickn in😈”
bro turned into dexter for a minute
Bro went dexter mode 😭
this scene always makes me cry. my heart breaks so much for House
I wish we had more doctors like this
V.S. Ramachandran came up with the mirror technique to alleviate phantom limb pain. Great story.
I feel pain every day from an accident in 1990. This makes me cry for this guy
Damn, House must have been watching Dexter the way he put him down 😂
House sedated him like he straight outta Dexter😭
if people r wondering yes, that is an actual way for amputees to get rid of phantom pain, although im pretty sure its not that instant, its a thing u have to do regularly for weeks before it goes away
My favorite House episode! ❤
Which episode please ?
From 1954 to 1973, almost 2,000 members of the Canadian Armed Forces and a few hundred diplomats served in Vietnam on two international commissions to help bring peace and stability to the country.
Turned into Dexter for a moment
Dexter would be proud
This episode was the first time seeing the show. Fell in love with Dr. House!!
Privately, some Canadians contributed to the war effort. Canadian corporations sold war material to the U.S. government. In addition, at least 30,000 Canadians volunteered to serve in the U.S. armed forces during the war. At least 134 Canadians died or were reported missing in Vietnam.
House is a damn sleeper unit everybody needs and wants on their team 😂
This was one of the best episodes
This was based on real research into phantom limbs. There was a documentary I saw back in ‘98/‘99 about this very type of therapy.
As a fellow (5 time) amputee I can absolutely assure you that while mirror therapy works for things like needing to stretch the muscles in a missing limb, it does not get rid of pain like this!
My favorite part of this whole show maybe my favorite Hugh Laurie sequence. Story taken from New England med journal Fall 2007 ❤
“Hi, honey” is the best part of this
Nero, is just taping in square root, neurology annoying your atoms, nerve ending is key to seal old wounds
This was one of my favorite parts of this episode.
The mirror trick really works. It seems incredible....
*Breaks into a war veteran's home*
*Accuses him of falsely being a war veteran*
*Kidnaps him*
*Fixes his phantom pain*
*Refuses to elaborate*
i mean to be fair this was the only possible way the war vet would drop the charges after house broke into his apartment and accused him of faking
this man was such a menace
