My son spent nearly 300 days in the hospital in the last three years. A lot of it had to with the effects of a cytokine storm. He had an illness similar to COVID-19.
Nobody could figure it out. Tissue samples were sent to labs around the country, including the CDC, numerous times. Nobody could ever identify the infection.
Treatments were experimental because just like Covid they didn’t have any experience with it.
Some on here act like President Trump will have A doctor.
My son had teams of doctors from many departments. The President will have the best teams and the best security.
I wish him all the best.
Yes, I understand what they are and finding the cause is some times right out of an episode of “House.”
But I read the original post as someone “injecting” the cytokines into the President to induce the storm.
The amount of tracking that goes on in a hospital is incredible (thats how you get billed!). No one is “injecting” anything into the President that hasn’t been checked four or five times.
And yes, my wife is in Surgery right now. She has been since 1:30 this afternoon. Due to the complexity of the process they are on their third surgeon and third team of nurses and techs. I was just joking with my kids that the bill for this day alone is going to be in volumes, not pages.
I understand the concepts of teams...all too well. I am in a waiting area, alone, talking on the phone to a doctor I never met, and he is on speaker phone so that the nurses in the room can confirm and attest to the changes to the process.
Sometimes people have no idea what it is like to have someone moving through the hospital system these days.
