- As I suspected, sap.
(Dr. Wagner laughing)
- Chocolate-induced strokes, sleeping with your eyes open,
and what the heck is a fridge bod?
Get ready to laugh because today we're back at it
breaking down and reacting to
all of the hilarious medical scenes
and absurd injuries from Family Guy #17.
Let's dive right in.
- Still on those meds, huh?
- Uh, yeah, they uh, they help me to uh,
uh, think.
- You've heard the names of,
say, Adderall or Ritalin.
They're a little bit different medications,
but they're a type of stimulant to help people focus.
- Okay, time for an eyes-open nap.
(Dr. Wagner laughs)
Stewie's eyes are wide open.
You can see the white all the way around,
say, the iris and the pupil.
You get concerned actually with other medical problems
relating to your thyroid where the eyeballs
might be pushing out
and you actually might have hyperthyroidism.
- Putting you on that stuff was a huge mistake.
See, this is how American society
treats unique enthusiastic children.
Instead of embracing their mental gifts,
their first reaction is to shoot 'em up with hardcore drugs
until they're mindless sheeple.
- Yep, takes all kinds.
- To diagnose somebody with these type
of medical ailments or disorders
is done at a younger age when people are very active
and they have creative minds.
So it's hard to really determine,
does somebody actually need this or not?
There's specific criteria.
- You know, a lot of kids in my school take ADD pills.
They say if you're lazy and unmotivated,
it makes you super energized and productive.
- Really? Productive?
- ADHD, right? We don't use ADD anymore.
We use ADHD. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
Not something that is typically diagnosed
in the emergency department,
but we do see people on these medications.
- Focus, huh? - Oh, geez.
- Okay, well, Stewie, these babies can help
the garbage disposal focus
because that's where they're going.
No need to follow me because I just said
what I was gonna do.
- Disposal of medications.
The most appropriate thing to do is actually just
bring them back to the pharmacy
and they can dispose of them.
Gotta be careful flushing them down the toilet.
Depending on where you live, it may go into water supplies.
- Time's almost up, Peter. We're gonna win!
- No, we're not.
(dramatic music) (food sloshing)
- [Quagmire] And in a stunning turn of events,
Chef Griffin is eating his entire meal.
(record skips)
- Peter ate a ton all very quickly.
Having a poor diet over a long period of time,
smoking, uncontrolled hypertension, diabetes.
- Diabetes.
- A lot of these risk factors of family history
play in part to how likely you may in the future
have a heart attack or stroke.
- You threw the cook off for me?
- I couldn't take your dream away,
heart attack, from you, buddy.
You're the, mini stroke,
one with the real, heart attack, talent.
- So every time he says he's having a heart attack,
he's having chest pain, right?
There's no way to actually know in that moment
if you're having a heart attack.
A heart attack basically is a blocked blood vessel
around the heart.
Typically, a very small plaque that becomes
like a clot real quick.
Then you decrease blood flow and you get pain to that area.
- You, heart attack, deserve the show,
regular stroke, not me.
- You're a good friend, Peter.
- Stroke symptoms usually are one-sided
because the two halves of our brain.
Stroke hitting the left part of our brain
will affect the right side of our body and vice versa.
And then, also the balance center of our brain,
your cerebellum, has to do with like balance and dizziness.
- This place is paying Meg to do what?
- Nothing.
When you have a million followers,
people just pay you to hang out.
(Dr. Wagner laughing)
- No, that doesn't happen.
I have a million plus YouTube subscribers
on the channel at the moment,
and no I do not get paid to randomly hang out.
Shout out to you guys for subscribing to this channel.
- Yo, yo, yo!
Everything here is made with corn syrup.
Just drink the corn syrup!
- Please do not just drink corn syrup,
high fructose corn syrup;
basically what we add into a lot of things
especially here in the United States
to make things sweet for the sugar purposes.
(Meg belches)
(Meg thuds) (crowd silences)
Oh my gosh.
So Meg collapsed because of blood sugar being super high.
Blood sugar can normally range in a normal person
with a normal functioning pancreas
and insulin production between 70 and 100, 110.
Once things start getting higher than that,
then the concern for diabetes.
- Meg has type 2 diabetes.
- Ah.
Type 2 diabetes is basically you're not born with diabetes
and you've put your body into such a situation
where you've taxed it so much over time,
having high amounts of sugar in your body
has significantly impaired your ability
to manage the elevated blood sugars.
- I need to draw a little more blood for the lab.
(spout aggressively pierces)
- Oh my gosh.
We don't actually typically put spouts into people.
Obviously, we put IVs in.
There are some type of devices that we'll put into people
where if there's fluid in the lung.
- He's got fluid.
- Put a chest tube in that has a valve on it.
If you have too much fluid in your brain,
you can actually put a shunt in where you drain fluid out
and you can adjust the valve as well.
- As I suspected, sap.
- (laughs) Typically, people will put these type of devices
into a type of tree to get syrup out of them.
- I wanna be picked up now, Mom.
Fine, I'll see you at four.
(cell phone beeps) (Dr. Hartman sobs)
What do you want? - Oh my gosh.
- I have no idea what's going on.
- Allergic reaction.
- I feel like I'm turning back into my old teenage self
and there's nothing I can do about it.
- Lois is stressing out, a lot of anxiety,
and she has a rash,
so this rash could be brought on by stress and get hives.
Typically, if you treat the offending problem,
control the anxiety, this will go away.
- I see.
Did you recently run into an old bully
or were you tagged in a very unflattering
Throwback Thursday forward? - Wow.
In the emergency department, if somebody comes in
with an allergic type reaction, we give steroids,
Benadryl, Pepcid, fluids, plus or minus an EpiPen,
just depends on the extent,
and we're actually just trying to get the body
to stop having an overreaction.
- I did.
I ran into a girl who terrorized me in junior high
and she used to call me Scoli Lois.
- (laughs) Like scoliosis.
That's very good. - Oh my gosh.
So she's in a type of brace that's keeping her upright
all the way down from the lower back
all the way to the neck.
- Look at that neck!
- This could be a type of scoliosis brace.
You can also use this type of brace
or different types of spine or vertebral fractures
to keep in alignment.
- Dr. Hartman, what's happening to me?
- Well, Mrs. Griffin, I think you're suffering
from severe nerd damage.
- (laughs) Severe nerd damage.
- I'm a nerd.
- I guess I have that too, but no.
Maybe nerve damage
or autoimmune type reaction due to stress.
- You see, all nerds are one tossed off joke away
from reverting to their worst most humiliating selves.
- But I don't wanna be a nerd forever.
- Tell you what, find the coolest guy in school
and give him a tug behind the bleachers.
That usually solves it.
- Oh my gosh, no.
- She also has an eye twitch in the left eye
and that could also be related to muscle spasming, stress.
Just like you'd have a cramp in a leg,
you can have a cramp in the eyelids.
There's multiple different muscles that affect that eye
as well as nerves.
- Does that really work?
- I don't know. Why don't we go find out?
- Oh my gosh, Dr. Hartman totally inappropriately
hitting on his patient.
- Ina-pro-pro!
(buzzer blares)
- There is no right scenario where a doctor
should be dating a patient.
"Family Guy" never fails. Quite entertaining.
