Diagnosis: it's not lupus.
But it's also not immuloidosis or sarcoidosis.
"It's environmental" - Foreman
"You would think it's environmental, that's all they let your people believe about their circumstances" - House
And then everyone moved on from that casual racism lol
Except for that one time when it was
Kinda like Bones with a limp.
This is honestly the perfect description of House.
Still better than Andy Dick.
Honestly as much as I hate to admit it I liked him in that episode. Which sucks because, like any normal rational human being, I hate Andy Dick with passion.
Why did they have andy dick of all people cameo? Aged like milk too huh?
It was still the 90s.
..but still
It’s not an excuse, it’s just a reason
Like almost all cameos, it's because the person was a fan and they had enough pull in the industry to get a guest role.
You just got to hope that his patients don't suffer kidney failure from the 9 different procedures he guessed would work before they find the right problem
I want star trek space babble explanations for medical problems. I want house to tell me that it's not a disease, it's a parasite, one that exists only when we're looking for it. A quantum parasite.
Now we could easily fix the quantum parasite with the transporters only I'm not going to do that because that's to easy. So instead I'm going to inject you with Borg nanobots, and can you assimilate Foreman when he comes in because his whole job is to suffer.
Just so you know, I'm stealing this idea, and will use it both during ttrpg play, and in a short story I've been looking for a good disease to work around.
If published, I'll credit you under whatever name you prefer, if you want credit.
That's some straight-up Welcome To Night Vale medical horror. Like a plague of fatal politeness, or Langdon's basilisk. Which in D&D might just be a photograph of an actual basilisk.
edit: Wait, no, they actually did that in Doctor Who. Donna had that thing on her back that could only disguise itself through the first dozen reflections.
No credit necessary. Be sure to include a whole bit about house seeing things on the holodeck when he hasn't turned them on, or him recognizing that he's actually still on the ship and not on another planet because he still feels the full amount of pain in his leg and it's not reduced like in low g.
Pills. Vicodin. Lots.
House likes medical mysteries. So if anything hed be very interested in what the medical emergency itself was unless it was trivial and therefore boring. Then you would have reason to worry.
I want hawkeye!
"This isn't a war, it's a murder."
"This isn't a war, it's a moida!"
Great, now I have to watch House M.D. again...
Honestly same... Glad to inflict it on you!
I would love an episode of that. They've done plenty of fan fiction in holodecks, why not house (other than the legal crap, don't bring reality into this)?
baka..
What is the image from? It doesn't look like avenue 5
House MD
Why is he wearing, is that Star Trek? I do not remember this episode and I just rewatched it all lol
It's a photoshopped image. They've taken the face of Hugh Laurie as House and put it over an image of a Starfleet doctor. The text added to the text is to invoke the memory of The Doctor from Voyager. Implying that there would be a new Emergency Medical Hologram that was Dr House as the hologram.
