- Let's see what medical knowledge we can take away
from some of these Dhar Mann videos.
Let's get started, bewoop.
- You know what, grant?
You wanna throw your life away?
You have at it.
I have done everything that I can.
- Oh great, you know what, Allison?
(grant coughs) (dramatic orchestra music)
- Oh. - Grant?
- He's grabbing his heart.
Call 9-1-1 and don't start chest compressions,
'cause he's still breathing.
- I can't. - What is it, Grant?
- I'm burning, I.
- No, no, okay, I'm gonna call 9-1-1.
- That's good.
Obviously we're worried about a heart attack,
but this is how medicine works.
We don't just say he's grabbing at his heart.
It must be a heart attack.
It could also be a pneumonia, a costochondritis, heartburn,
aortic dissection.
We rule out the most serious things
and work our way backwards from there.
- We are still waiting for your results,
but looking at your heart, I'm really concerned, Grant.
- How did he look at his heart?
- How much alcohol are you consuming?
- Alcohol is actually toxic to the cells of the heart.
So you develop what's known as dilated cardiomyopathy
where the heart gets ballooned and expanded,
and because of that, it doesn't contract as well,
therefore it doesn't pump as well,
and if your pump is not working well, it's struggling,
it's not getting enough circulation on its own,
and you develop a heart attack.
- Seven or eight.
- A week?
- A day.
- That's called binge drinking.
- If you don't change your diet, start exercising,
and stop drinking for a while, then--
- Wait, stop drinking.
What are you talk, what, I can't have like just
like one or two?
- Stop and just listen to him.
- At least temporarily.
Otherwise, next time you come in, well,
let's just say there may not be a next time.
- What I would say is alcohol is obviously cardiotoxic,
bad for your heart, but it's also incredibly damaging
to your liver when you're drinking it to these amounts.
Liver cirrhosis is so damaging that many
of those patients end up having their livers fail
and are in need of a liver transplant.
It can get that bad.
- Oh, hi, Dr. Singh.
- [Singh] I'm calling to let you guys know
that Grant is okay.
It was just a case of severe heartburn.
He should just take the antacid I prescribed
if the heartburn returns.
- This is the biggest BS ever.
The doctor said, when I'm looking at your heart,
I see you're in trouble, and then you're calling
and saying it's heartburn?
Heartburn is when acid leaves your stomach,
passes the lower esophageal sphincter,
and then the acid goes in there
and irritates that area, and it burns,
and the reason we call it heartburn
is 'cause it's near the heart.
It feels like your heart is burning,
but it's really your esophagus is burning.
You need a visit with a GI.
You probably need an upper endoscopy
where they put a camera in your mouth.
Let's see where this goes.
- [Announcer] I mean, everyone saw it, right?
You saw it, I saw it, zero blitz.
- Oh no, Dr. Singh, I just can't believe it.
Thank you for the call. (whimpers)
- So what'd he say?
- That stomach's gotta be fake.
It looks so unnatural.
- [Allison] He said you did have a heart attack,
and it is way worse than he thought.
- She's gonna give him a heart attack.
- He said that you have three months
to live if you're lucky.
- And he told me that over the phone to tell you.
If I have something even remotely serious to tell a patient,
I bring them in the office. (phone rings)
I don't tell someone else to pass it along.
Hey, by the way, BT-Dubs, (chirping gibberish)
can you let your husband know he's got three months to live?
See ya.
What kind of medicine is that?
- Well, I can reverse it.
Yeah, I can make this thing better.
I can turn this around.
- [Allison] Nothing.
- Why is she demotivating him?
- Not.
- Unless. - Unless?
- It's a long shot.
- You take care of this tamagotchi for 78 years.
♪ What does it mean ♪
- [Narrator] From that moment on, Grant finally decides
to change his lifestyle.
He stops drinking and gets rid of all the alcohol
in his house.
- What we've learned of the psychology
from motivational interviewing is that
if you want a patient to make,
like begin at least contemplating a change,
you need them to want to make those changes,
not me saying you have to do this,
because I'm a doctor and I said it.
- [Singh] Hey there, Grant.
- Why is the doctor picking up NyQuil?
Just curious.
- Hey. - How's it going?
- [Grant] Good.
- And what kind of supermarket puts NyQuil
in your oranges and pretzels?
Like what kind of weird party are you having?
- You look great.
- Thanks.
- I guess I don't have to ask
if you have been taking my advice seriously.
- Yes, I am.
What do you think the chances are now?
- And why is grape jelly near mustard?
This is so misinformation.
- You called up Allison and you told her
that I only had three months to live.
You said that, right?
I didn't even need to give up drinking in the first place.
I can't believe I listened to you.
- Grant, no, please don't.
- Is everything okay?
- Yeah, everything's okay, sweetie.
- Are you coming with me to my recital today?
- Absolutely, I wouldn't miss it for the world.
(sad piano music)
- Why does he always have it and pour it out?
If you had it already, you don't need to pour it out.
Give it to somebody else.
- I'm so proud of you.
- Well, it's like you said,
I gotta take care of my wellness.
- Who says take care of my wellness?
Chat GPT definitely wrote this script.
- [Kids] Yes, sir, yes, sir.
(baby cries) - We did it, we did it.
We're gonna be parents, Rose.
- Is something wrong?
- We're not sure yet.
Your baby seems totally healthy,
but we're just gonna run a few tests on the vision,
because we're a little concerned.
The pupils aren't reacting well to the light.
- One of the reflexes we look for
in newborns is called a red light reflex,
and part of that is shining the light
of an ophthalmoscope into the baby's eye
and seeing the red reflex in the pupil.
It's not there, that's when you gotta
start investigating further.
- How can you tell me not to worry
when you just said my daughter is gonna be blind?
How would something like that even have happened?
- Well, there are lots of possibilities,
infection or vitamin deficiency.
- I mean, this discussion does not happen now.
It's not valuable to start speculating on causes
of a condition before you know that the condition is there.
What's more valuable is to talk about
what the steps will be leading up to making the diagnosis.
So here's what we need to do.
We need to get a scan, a detailed exam,
we need a pediatric ophthalmologist,
et cetera, et cetera.
- [Nurse] It doesn't seem like she's completely blind,
but in time, it will get there.
You do not have discussions in hallways, in elevators.
It's posted all across hospitals.
It's not supposed to happen.
- [Male Voice] Shut up!
- Oh shoot, I forgot my badge.
Can you tell her, though, if it turns out the baby is blind?
- (laughs) What kind of medical team is this?
Oh, by the way, like I left my badge.
So can you just do my work for me?
Is she faking to be a doctor?
She even got doctor shoes on.
- [Nurse 2] Excuse me.
- Oh, sorry, I was just tying my shoe.
- Didn't we just see the shoes have no shoe laces?
- I'm new here.
I need to take this baby in for more testing,
and I can't find where to go.
- Oh, is that the Anderson baby?
- Are you their nurse?
- Yes, actually I am.
I'd be happy to take her for you.
- Great.
- You already have access to the baby.
It's your baby.
You don't need to steal it.
- I appreciate it.
- Grandpa, can I put lipstick on you?
- Several, what happened?
So she stole someone else's baby and that's her?
- [Producer] This is the stolen baby.
- You can't steal babies.
Babies have alarm tags on them
that if they're not deactivated when you walk out,
they go off.
So all babies have like basically ankle bracelets
to prevent them, not from escaping,
but from someone taking them against their will
or against their family's will.
- Does she get her eye color from Rose's mom or dad?
- From what I hear from her relatives, neither.
- Doesn't look like Olivia gets her features
from Rose's side of the family.
I don't think I have anyone with light hair
or eyes on my side.
- Oh my god, they could be recessive traits
that you haven't seen.
- This is ridiculous, Marcus.
You are the father, and it breaks my heart
that you don't trust me!
- I do trust you, but none of this makes any sense!
- What, what doesn't make sense?
She's our child, she always has been,
and I can't believe you'd think anything else!
- So he wants a paternity test,
and he's gonna find out it's not his baby.
He's gonna think she cheated on him.
- It's actually for my daughter's birthday tomorrow.
She's turning 11.
I can't believe how fast time flies.
- (chuckles) Oh, you're telling me.
It's weird, 'cause it's actually my daughter's birthday
as well tomorrow, and where is she?
- Oh yeah, mine is always running off with her grandma.
Hey, Olivia. - Olivia, whoa.
- Your daughter's name is Olivia too?
- Yeah, wow, same name, same birthday.
- You're in the same supermarket with the supermarket
that sells cornflakes near fanny packs and dress clothes.
- Mommy, can I get frozen yogurt?
- You remember the paternity test
that you threw out in the garbage?
Well, I took it and it turns out.
- You are not (speaker drowned out by audience).
(upbeat hip hop music)
- Either you cheated on me or you just--
- I switched the babies, okay?
- (laughs) I think I would watch this purely as a comedy.
Like this is great.
This is satire without trying to be satire,
and that's the purest form of satire.
- There's so much that I would like to say to you.
- Are they doing an intervention for baby stealing?
If I found out that my baby, first of all,
I would know my baby was stolen,
and even if I didn't, would I want the other baby
that I've raised already for six years?
I think I'd keep both.
If I'm this guy, I leave the spouse,
and I try and get into a polyamorous relationship
with the other couple.
- She's not the only one I told.
- Police, yeah!
- You're under arrest for impersonating a medical
professional and kidnapping.
- No, no, no, no, no, you guys have this all wrong.
- And I wanna know what happened to the nurse
that handed off the baby.
They said, where'd the baby go?
I don't know, or did she just like switch her tags?
What did she do?
- That is not my dad.
(white noise)
- [David On The Phone] Hello, my name is David
and I'm a recruiter specializing in wrestling,
and I'd like to offer Theo a sponsorship.
I can even offer him $25,000 upfront.
- Yes, yes, a thousand times yes.
- Oh my gosh, oh my gosh!
I can't believe I'm gonna get recruited!
- Recruited to like a school?
Why are they calling it a sponsorship, not a scholarship?
- [Sam] I don't know.
- Oh my gosh, mom, watch out!
(car crashes)
- When the ambulance arrived, you were unconscious.
We had to perform emergency surgery on your back
to save your life, but unfortunately,
the impact to your lumbar vertebrae, your lower back,
resulted in paralysis below the waist.
- Lumbar vertebrae are the bones that protect your spine.
Vertebrae are the bones that protect your spine,
but they're called different parts depending
on where you are in the body.
So up here, it's the cervical vertebrae,
mid-back is thoracic, lower is lumbar, then you have sacrum,
and then you have the coccyx.
- Can you try moving them at all?
- Why is he floating?
This is not how you do ambulation with assistance.
Part of what you do in rehab in situations like this
is first, you allow inflammation to be decreased over time,
then you start trying to activate the motion of those areas,
then you start trying to do gentle movements, mobilization.
You don't start weight bearing right away.
That's why he's floating.
It's kind of ridiculous
that they're even making him do this.
- [Narrator] Eventually, he's able to move his toes.
- There are some novel technologies
that are being studied using like magnets
and certain types of electro energies
to restart nerve growth and create nerve regeneration,
but they're largely imperfect.
In many instances, full sensation never returns,
but partial does.
- [Narrator] Everyone's shocked
at all the progress he's making.
His mom couldn't be more proud.
- Hey, yo, Stanley?
- Yeah?
- Let's roll.
- Are you sure that's--
- Long overdo.
- Whoo!
- Whoa, okay, anytime someone slaps themselves
before a wrestling match, you should get worried.
- Don't wanna have to send you back to the hospital.
- Or maybe I'll be the one to send you the hospital.
- Isn't this supposed to be a friendly sparring match?
Why are you sending anyone to the hospital,
and why is his mom cheering this on?
Stop it, mom.
- Come on, get up.
- Finish him.
- Finish him?
What is this, Mortal Combat?
- [Male Voice 2] Finish him.
(duck quack)
- Who are you?
- We spoke a few years ago prior to your accident,
which I'm very sorry about, by the way.
- Yeah, you caused the accident, bro.
- If you're still interested,
I can probably get you 50,000 now.
- (laughs) Gosh.
- Fake Sports Illustrated cover, really impressive.
- We got a test tomorrow?
- Mmhmm, she's been talking about it for weeks.
Let me guess, you haven't studied.
- No, I didn't study.
You know Modern Warfare II just came out.
- Actually, Modern Warfare III just came out,
and I've been crushing it.
My KD's like two right now.
Well, maybe not, because I'm trying to unlock some guns,
and until I get those, whatever.
- My gosh, I'm such a nerd.
- My mom would never question me
about having a broken ankle.
- Just a couple weeks ago, she caught you trying
to fake a broken arm so.
- But back then, I was in amateur, you know what I'm saying?
Now, I'm a pro.
- Jay, what happened to your ankle?
- It's broken, mom.
- Broken?
- She's in the medical field.
Can't she know?
- It's not as bad as it seems, see, see?
Just, ow!
- Okay, okay, okay, honey, don't put any pressure
on it, all right?
- Ottawa ankle rules are the rules we follow
to decide if someone needs an X-ray
when they roll their ankle, and one of the signs
that they may need an X-ray is
if they have struggle weight-bearing immediately
after the incident.
- [Mother] Jay.
- (groans) Come in.
- How you doing, honey?
- The mom's not wondering where the X-rays are.
Does he need surgery?
Like you're in the medical field,
at least you're wearing scrubs.
Like ask him questions, mom.
- I'm okay, but the pain is too much to bear. (groans)
- Okay, all right.
- That's what I said in the tour.
And I imagine it's a lot like going to see your doctor,
which is a lot of emotional weight to bear.
So how about I bring out my bear?
(audience cheers) Bear, come here, come here,
come here!
(white noise)
- Well, I called Dr. Gonzalez to make an appointment
to get some X-rays later.
- An X-ray?
I don't think I need that.
I've been drinking my almond milk, you know?
- Why is almond milk being drank for this?
Almond milk has nothing to do with broken bones.
- Keep that ankle elevated,
- Okay.
- [Mother] and I'll call later and check in, okay?
- The purpose of elevating an injured ankle
is to decrease swelling.
Gravity will actually help pull some of that swelling
or edema back into the lymphatic system.
- Thanks, mom.
I hate that I have to miss school.
It really breaks my heart.
- Hmm, I'm sure it does.
- Does it break his heart or his ankle?
(drum riff)
(jay screams)
- Good try, Jay.
- (sighs) You knew?
- Mmhmm.
- But mom, I don't wanna go to school.
I hate that place.
- Well, sometimes, I don't wanna go to work,
but I still have to.
- Facts.
- Man, I'd much rather go to work than class.
- Yeah, you say that now because you don't have to do it.
The grass isn't always greener on the other side.
- Facts.
- If you wanna drop outta school,
then you just have to be an adult and take on
all the responsibilities that come with that,
including going to work with me today.
- Yeah, you can't just bring your children to the hospital
to actually come with you to see patients,
mostly because of HIPAA, you know, patient privacy.
- We're about to start morning meds.
Up first, Vivian.
She's a bit feisty.
So tread lightly.
Good morning, Vivian.
Time for your meds.
There you go.
- Thank you.
- [Mother] Vivian.
- And we don't really have paper charts anymore.
It's all in the computer.
So they have these like rolling stations
that we roll around.
- Today is the day I'm escaping this prison.
- Mm, I'm sure it is.
You can escape after you take your potassium pill.
- What's a potassium pill?
- This is my son, Jay.
He's gonna be working with me today.
I'm just gonna check your swallowing, okay,
before I give you your meds.
- If a patient is not ill, why are we checking swallowing?
- All right, I just need
to watch you swallow your pill, okay?
- Why does she need potassium?
- This the last day I take these capsules of control.
- Potassium is a capsule of control?
Potassium is electrolyte.
(Vivian groans)
- Good job.
All right, I'm just gonna update your chart, okay?
Now if you're feeling dizzy, just let Jay know.
- But how would she get dizzy off potassium?
This is so weird.
(Vivian coughs) - Whoa, whoa, whoa,
are you okay?
Hey! - Here, take this.
- Ew, this is disgusting! - Be quiet!
Be quiet. - What?
- I'm gonna start screaming.
- Okay, okay!
Mom, I gotta tell you, she didn't take the--
- Oh, I know.
She spits it out when I leave.
That's why we sneak it into her food so she doesn't know.
- Yeah, you can't do that to patients.
- No, I'm just kidding.
You can't force her to take it,
(mike laughs)
but it's what I have to go through almost every morning.
It's not very fun, is it?
- Could've gone without seeing that whole episode
and I would've been fine.
Here's the other Dhar Mann videos
that I watched in the past.
Click here to check those out, and as always,
stay happy and healthy.
