Oh...My God.
They're doing a fecal transplant on Grey's to treat C Diff.
That's both righteous and icky.
I'm going to try to forget about the fact that Izzie is apparently suffering from a brain tumor and is having sex with Dead Denny (STILL HAWT) and the first year idiots are performing surgery on each other.
From what I've read, fecal transplants, though disgusting, apparently are an effective treatment to C Diff.
ReplyDeleteHey MM... I know I've read about that recently... On a blog if I remember correctly.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how long they've been doing it... I'm just surprised to see it on TV already.
Like I said on Twitter, Izzy doing the McNasty with McCorpsey just needs to stop now.
ReplyDeleteAnd the interns are either all freaking nuts or have some serious issues.
My wife wondered if a fecal transplant was a real thing. I had to look it up. Interesting...
Is it just me, though, or aside from the interns going all rouge in the past few episodes, do they not get treated so crappy that it was only a matter of time before they went rouge?
ReplyDeleteI admit it, I instantly googled the fecal transplant. Some techy guy at Google right now, going "why on EARTH are there so many hits for poop transplant?"
I just read an article yesterday that stated 90% effectiveness in curing recurrent e coli induced colitis.
ReplyDeleteStill...I'd have to be near death before I'd let someone put stool down an NGT in me.
ArkieRN, I couldn't agree more. The whole idea is just... Yeah. I'll pass.
