Unexplained Symptom edit

House's explaination of Naphthalene poisoning does not explain the first symptom. Keith coughed up blood, distracting the girlfriend and causing the crash which leads to his degeneration at the hospital from a loss of fat. However, what caused him to cough up blood in the first place? THAT wasn't caused by Naphthalene poisoning.66.41.44.102 (talk) 05:27, 18 December 2008 (UTC)Reply


Coughing up blood occurs due to damage caused by the poison. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.220.209.131 (talk) 12:47, 23 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

A Bet?? edit

It says that House and Cuddy made a bet that House would be unable to stay off Vidocin (??) for a week... wasn't it more like a deal? I know its not a significant difference but still....

No because a deal would mean that they both receive something, after. House returned to vicodin, and a week off clinic duty whereas Cuddy recieved nothing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.220.209.131 (talk) 12:48, 23 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Possible Source edit

If someone were interested in adding production details to this article I found a small tidbit which might help get it started, from the writer/medical consultant: "Foster cites a recent show titled "Detox." In this episode, House attempts to kick his addiction to the painkiller Vicodin. Foster, who ran a detox program in Boston, drew from his professional experience in treating addicts to help shape the story and frame a debate about addiction versus the appropriate use of pain medication." cnn.com It's not much but it might get someone started.
