My wife is very much a redhead. Several years ago she had surgery. The female doctor that did the surgery came out and was talking to me while my wife was in recovery. The doctor said she believes that redheads are a distinct and separate race from all other humans. She said they react to medications and anesthesia different than any other races.

My wife takes high blood pressure medication. The doctor told her she would always be cold and she is always warm. If a medication says it causes drowsiness, it makes her wide awake and an insomniac. Maybe there is something to this theory.

Same here. I've had strange drug reactions. My doctor looks at me now and says redheads are weird.

Studies have shown that redheads feel 20% more pain and need 20% more anesthetic.

My doctor gave me the whole rundown on redhead peculiarities. I have pretty much all of them.
