At the time, doctors didn't use your pulse to check if you were still alive, instead looking for signs you were still breathing.

Rubbish. Ancient Chinese doctors not only checked a patient's pulse, they diagnosed underlying illness based on the quality of the pulse.

How many Chinese doctors were there in Babylon during Alexander's illness?
