Is it ever okay to lie to a patient?, page-50

Mate one of the participants had nasal congestion!

I genuinely don't want to hurt your feelings, so I won't comment any further. Thankyou for your input.

Look if there is some guy in the world that can hover their hands over a person and cure fevers, nasal congestion, shortness of breath, pain and bloody diarrhoea then I awesome, but the trained professional in me can't comprehend such a thing.

I mean a 33 year old patient with a diagnosis of hypertension, high blood pressure - 140/90, could have been anxious, stressed etc, but then on the other hand has experiences an episode of syncope (fainting) which is a temporary loss of consciousness cause by low blood pressure!!! She does have a herniated disc which explains somewhat of the inability of her not being able to flex at the hip, but really after having hands hover over her she can then immediately have 90 degrees of hip flexion? I mean I just can't believe it and even if I was there I still don't think I could believe it.
