1. Bet that burned some calories.
Copy !req
2. Almost as good as a session of hot yoga.
Copy !req
3. With considerably fewer wind chimes.
Copy !req
4. You forgot your phone charger.
Copy !req
5. Oh, leave it here for next time.
Copy !req
6. Since when did you start
counting on a next time?
Copy !req
7. Since the last time we went three rounds.
Copy !req
8. But if you want to stop…
Copy !req
9. I didn't say that.
Copy !req
10. I recall you saying quite the opposite.
Copy !req
11. I want you not to depend
on this being here for you,
Copy !req
12. thinking you can
plug in any time you want.
Copy !req
13. I'm aware that I need
the charger's consent.
Copy !req
14. You need to see other women.
Copy !req
15. - Why? I don't really want to…
- No excuses.
Copy !req
16. If we're gonna keep hooking up,
Copy !req
17. you should start sleeping
with other people.
Copy !req
18. You're a very strange woman.
Copy !req
19. Have you seen my phone?
Copy !req
20. Oh. And remember,
we have to leave the hospital
Copy !req
21. by00 tonight for birthing class.
Copy !req
22. The birthing class that I don't need
Copy !req
23. on account of my O.B. rotation
in medical school.
Copy !req
24. But where I will learn how to give you
Copy !req
25. the support you need
while giving birth to our child.
Copy !req
26. That is my guy.
Copy !req
27. I got the results of the fetal DNA test.
Copy !req
28. Okay.
Copy !req
29. This will tell us the sex of the baby.
Copy !req
30. I know. On account of my O.B.
rotation in medical school.
Copy !req
31. Aren't you excited?
Copy !req
32. Not by that.
Copy !req
33. There are only two outcomes
that can be detected on this test,
Copy !req
34. and I am fine with either.
Copy !req
35. So am I.
Copy !req
36. I'm excited to find this out.
Copy !req
37. Please come here
so we can look together.
Copy !req
38. It's a girl.
Copy !req
39. We're having a girl.
Copy !req
40. Would you like to paint
the nursery pink?
Copy !req
41. No. This isn't the '50s.
Copy !req
42. Oh!
Copy !req
43. Okay.
Copy !req
44. - Okay.
- Okay.
Copy !req
45. - I will see you in class.
- Okay.
Copy !req
46. Okay.
Copy !req
47. I've got Bay 3.
Copy !req
48. - The chest contusion?
- Uh-huh.
Copy !req
49. Why are you all bright-eyed
and bushy-tailed over a bruise?
Copy !req
50. This is Dr. Wolke. I'm Dr. Reznick.
Copy !req
51. Tell me how you got that
contusion, Mister…
Copy !req
52. Bradley "The Body" Vargas,
Copy !req
53. currently top-ranked
in his MMA weight class.
Copy !req
54. I've seen all of your fights.
You're amazing.
Copy !req
55. So much for slipping in and out of here
without being recognized.
Copy !req
56. Mm, sparring,
roundhouse right to the chest.
Copy !req
57. Mm, that was some kick.
Copy !req
58. This is a pretty large hematoma.
Copy !req
59. We need to drain it.
Copy !req
60. Uh, you're already training for Vazquez?
Copy !req
61. That fight's not for a couple months.
Copy !req
62. A real fan.
Copy !req
63. Drain it? Like with a needle?
Copy !req
64. We can numb you if you like.
Copy !req
65. Get that away from me.
Copy !req
66. Not here.
Copy !req
67. Your pre-op tests
came back normal,
Copy !req
68. so we can go ahead
with the hip replacement.
Copy !req
69. My physical therapist says
I should be walking
Copy !req
70. four hours after surgery
and good to go in ten to 12 weeks,
Copy !req
71. but I'm aiming for nine.
Copy !req
72. Can you please tell my mom
Copy !req
73. that that's not a good idea?
Copy !req
74. You should not rush your recovery.
Copy !req
75. Does it matter to you
whether you are having a boy or a girl?
Copy !req
76. I'm having a boy.
Copy !req
77. We're gonna name him Ray,
after my dad.
Copy !req
78. My girlfriend and I
are going to have a daughter.
Copy !req
79. That's great news, Shaun.
Copy !req
80. Why?
Copy !req
81. The procedure will take a couple of hours,
Copy !req
82. so we should be able to
get you home in a day or two.
Copy !req
83. Oh, I am looking forward
to getting back in the air,
Copy !req
84. pain free.
Copy !req
85. No more pills or cortisone shots or…
Copy !req
86. …my internist telling me
Copy !req
87. my hips are too wide for the cockpit.
Copy !req
88. Sounds more like a Navy problem,
than a you problem.
Copy !req
89. Clearly the cockpit needs a redesign…
Copy !req
90. …as well as a renaming.
Copy !req
91. O.R. two is ready. It's time.
Copy !req
92. Both implants seem to be intact.
Copy !req
93. Thanks.
Copy !req
94. Sorry I freaked out.
Copy !req
95. Too many people back there.
Copy !req
96. If my fans found out I had pec implants,
my career'd be over.
Copy !req
97. I saw you make McEwan
tap in one round.
Copy !req
98. Implants had nothing to do with that.
Copy !req
99. My body's a big part of the brand.
Copy !req
100. Everything else is real,
100% U.S. prime Bradley.
Copy !req
101. You do not need to explain anything.
Copy !req
102. It's just,
Copy !req
103. how many guys, let alone fighters,
Copy !req
104. get plastic surgery?
Copy !req
105. I'm sure more than you think.
Copy !req
106. When I was a kid,
Copy !req
107. well, I was a big boy.
Copy !req
108. I got picked on all the time.
Copy !req
109. My mom wanted me to
be able to protect myself,
Copy !req
110. so she put me in jiujitsu.
Copy !req
111. I loved it.
Copy !req
112. I started training every day.
Copy !req
113. It seems to have worked.
Copy !req
114. Yeah.
Copy !req
115. After the fat was gone,
Copy !req
116. well, man boobs don't look good on anyone.
Copy !req
117. They did very nice work.
Copy !req
118. I would never know.
Copy !req
119. We still need to drain it.
Copy !req
120. I'll get the procedure room set up.
Copy !req
121. Is that why you want me
to sleep with other people?
Copy !req
122. So you can shamelessly flirt
with patients?
Copy !req
123. I feel no shame.
Copy !req
124. And I'm not stopping you.
Copy !req
125. So why do I need to see other women?
Copy !req
126. This is embarrassing.
Copy !req
127. For you.
Copy !req
128. What man asks that question?
Copy !req
129. You are soft and prone to attachment.
Copy !req
130. I promise you I will not get attached.
Copy !req
131. Empty words. You have
a Bumble profile. Use it.
Copy !req
132. No need.
Copy !req
133. What's gonna keep me
from getting attached to you
Copy !req
134. isn't the charms of other women.
Copy !req
135. It's your utter lack of any.
Copy !req
136. Nice osteotomy
of the femoral head.
Copy !req
137. It's bone on bone in here.
Copy !req
138. I don't know how Jean pushed
through the pain.
Copy !req
139. A female fighter pilot
in the "Top Gun" era?
Copy !req
140. She's pushed through worse.
Copy !req
141. Things are much better
for women today.
Copy !req
142. In this surgery, I am the only man.
Copy !req
143. But until they find a way
to put uteruses in men,
Copy !req
144. biology will always force us
to make sacrifices
Copy !req
145. our male colleagues don't.
Copy !req
146. Is that why you don't have children?
Copy !req
147. Shaun, that is not something
you should ever ask a woman.
Copy !req
148. Well, I brought it up.
Copy !req
149. I never consciously made that decision.
Copy !req
150. But along the way,
I made a bunch of small ones
Copy !req
151. that put my job in front of
having a family, and…
Copy !req
152. I don't regret it.
Copy !req
153. But it does piss me off that
most men don't have to choose.
Copy !req
154. Mobilize the proximal femur,
then ream and rasp.
Copy !req
155. Jean's pressure just tanked…
64 over 38.
Copy !req
156. Push fluids, start pressors.
Copy !req
157. Heart rate's low at 42, sinus bradycardia.
Copy !req
158. Her pre-op tests were all normal.
Copy !req
159. She has no cardiac history.
Copy !req
160. If she threw a clot, she'd be tachy.
Copy !req
161. Check for any occult bleeding.
Copy !req
162. I'll get the transesophageal echo.
Copy !req
163. There is no bleeding.
Copy !req
164. Check a twelve-lead,
start troponins.
Copy !req
165. Her B.P. is stabilizing.
Copy !req
166. Remove osteophytes, place cup,
direct screws posterolaterally.
Copy !req
167. Her pressure should not have dropped.
Copy !req
168. And we don't know why it came back up.
Copy !req
169. Was it the fluids and pressors
or spontaneous reversal or…
Copy !req
170. We need to finish her hip arthoplasty
Copy !req
171. before she bottoms out again,
and then yes,
Copy !req
172. we need to figure out why it
happened in the first place.
Copy !req
173. Okay.
Copy !req
174. Go ahead and advance the needle.
Copy !req
175. Are you seeing anybody?
Copy !req
176. Oh, no. Is this about to get weird?
Copy !req
177. No, I… No.
Copy !req
178. I'm taking a flouro shot.
Copy !req
179. Do you usually date
one person exclusively,
Copy !req
180. or are you seeing
a few people at once?
Copy !req
181. Be careful not to breach
the pleural space.
Copy !req
182. Define your terms.
Copy !req
183. Does "date" mean "have dinner with"
Copy !req
184. or "meet up for sex"?
Copy !req
185. I'm not entirely sure.
Copy !req
186. Mm, by the time there's food involved,
Copy !req
187. I prefer to be exclusive.
Copy !req
188. In the hematoma now.
Copy !req
189. Mm, I'm not able to aspirate anything.
Copy !req
190. That's not just clotted blood.
Copy !req
191. It's a mass.
Copy !req
192. It's about five centimeters across,
firm, non-mobile.
Copy !req
193. It's very dense.
Copy !req
194. Get a biopsy, but that
Copy !req
195. looks like breast cancer.
Copy !req
196. If there's a problem with her heart,
should she be straining it?
Copy !req
197. If I'm gonna have a heart attack,
Copy !req
198. this is the best place for it.
Copy !req
199. That is exactly right.
Copy !req
200. It's very likely your mom is fine,
Copy !req
201. that the blood pressure drop
was just a reaction to the anesthesia.
Copy !req
202. You're a very successful pilot.
Copy !req
203. Was that harder
because you are a woman?
Copy !req
204. For me, standing out was a plus.
Copy !req
205. It got me noticed.
Copy !req
206. Mm, that's not always a good thing.
Copy !req
207. It's the Navy.
Copy !req
208. Was the bar higher for me
than the guys? Yeah.
Copy !req
209. But pressure's just an opportunity
to get better.
Copy !req
210. Your mother is very inspiring.
Copy !req
211. Yes… She is.
Copy !req
212. I can go harder if you need me to.
Copy !req
213. Yes, please.
Copy !req
214. I don't have breasts.
Copy !req
215. How can I have breast cancer?
Copy !req
216. You have breast tissue,
Copy !req
217. and while it's rare in men,
it does happen.
Copy !req
218. The biopsy has identified
a particularly aggressive tumor.
Copy !req
219. But the good news is
we caught it early.
Copy !req
220. W-What's next?
Copy !req
221. Sorry.
Copy !req
222. We're recommending surgery
to remove the mass.
Copy !req
223. Followed by chemotherapy.
Copy !req
224. We don't believe there'll be any long-term
loss of strength or…
Copy !req
225. Can I keep my implants?
Copy !req
226. Like, will they be able to
work around them?
Copy !req
227. - It's possible.
- But highly unlikely.
Copy !req
228. At the end of this,
the Body gotta look like the Body.
Copy !req
229. Otherwise, I'll lose my sponsors,
Copy !req
230. my career.
Copy !req
231. A lumpectomy makes sense
considering…
Copy !req
232. If we want to let the patient
prioritize his appearance over his health.
Copy !req
233. He needs a mastectomy.
Copy !req
234. Would you be so dismissive if our patient
was a woman choosing to preserve her…
Copy !req
235. - Someone's popular today.
Copy !req
236. They're all dating app alerts.
Copy !req
237. It's amazing what upgrading
a profile pic can do.
Copy !req
238. You should vary your password more.
Copy !req
239. Where'd you get this photo?
Copy !req
240. I took it for personal use.
Copy !req
241. But I'm happy to let it be
your introduction
Copy !req
242. to the world of e-dating.
Copy !req
243. Fly, muscular sparrow.
Copy !req
244. Fly.
Copy !req
245. - This photo's such a…
- The words you're looking for
Copy !req
246. are "thirst trap," and you're welcome.
Copy !req
247. Relax. Relax.
Copy !req
248. While you are under
the soothing touch of your partner,
Copy !req
249. let's discuss birthing plans.
Copy !req
250. Okay, maybe just a little less pressure.
Copy !req
251. - Like this?
- Uh, not really.
Copy !req
252. Remember, you are in charge
of your birthing experience.
Copy !req
253. Every aspect of your labor
is your decision,
Copy !req
254. starting with when you head
to the hospital.
Copy !req
255. Okay, maybe just stop. It's okay.
Copy !req
256. It's okay.
Copy !req
257. I recommend what doulas call
the 4-1-1 rule.
Copy !req
258. You wait until contractions
are four minutes apart
Copy !req
259. and last for one minute for at least…
Copy !req
260. Five minute intervals is safer.
Copy !req
261. That's one opinion, Dr. Murphy,
Copy !req
262. for mothers who enjoy waiting
at the hospital.
Copy !req
263. Once you arrive,
clearly instruct your partner
Copy !req
264. and your doctor of what you want.
Copy !req
265. No. The doctor needs to be in charge.
Copy !req
266. What if there is a complication?
Copy !req
267. Mm.
Copy !req
268. Maybe just let her talk.
Copy !req
269. Sorry.
Copy !req
270. After your water breaks,
Copy !req
271. fortify yourself for the work ahead.
Copy !req
272. Be that with meditation
or a pre-selected song
Copy !req
273. that you find soothing
or perhaps a light snack.
Copy !req
274. That is a very bad idea.
Copy !req
275. Dr. Murphy, please hold
your comments until the…
Copy !req
276. You shouldn't eat
after your water breaks.
Copy !req
277. Many women experience bowel
incontinence during labor.
Copy !req
278. Is that true?
Copy !req
279. - We might poop ourselves.
- Okay.
Copy !req
280. No one mentioned
involuntary pooping.
Copy !req
281. - How was the class?
- Very informative.
Copy !req
282. - When's the next one?
- There won't be a next one.
Copy !req
283. We were thrown out.
Copy !req
284. None of our tests showed any issues
with your heart.
Copy !req
285. You are in great shape.
Copy !req
286. Then what caused
the blood pressure drop?
Copy !req
287. Mm, Dr. Browne must have been right.
Copy !req
288. It was a reaction to the anesthesia.
Copy !req
289. So, when can I get out of here?
Copy !req
290. When we know you can
get around safely on your new hip.
Copy !req
291. Oh.
Copy !req
292. Let's do this.
Copy !req
293. Careful, Mom. It's not a race.
Copy !req
294. Everything's a race, dear.
Copy !req
295. Mom!
Copy !req
296. Jean's hip is intact,
which means it didn't cause her fall.
Copy !req
297. No, her blood pressure did.
Copy !req
298. Jean was still being monitored
when she collapsed.
Copy !req
299. Her blood pressure fell precipitously,
just like in surgery.
Copy !req
300. Sudden hypotensive crisis
could be a high spinal cord tumor.
Copy !req
301. Or carotid stenosis,
Copy !req
302. or carotid sinus hypersensitivity.
Copy !req
303. Endocrine deficiency?
Copy !req
304. Make a list. Start ruling things out.
Copy !req
305. Uh.
Copy !req
306. make a list somewhere else.
Copy !req
307. Shaun!
Copy !req
308. Come meet Theresa.
Copy !req
309. She's a doula, and we're talking about
her helping me during my labor.
Copy !req
310. Hello.
Copy !req
311. Lea does not need a doula.
Copy !req
312. I will be helping her.
But thank you.
Copy !req
313. Let me know what you decide.
Copy !req
314. Of course. Thank you.
Copy !req
315. Shaun, I am so excited about our baby.
Copy !req
316. And I am so scared
about delivering her.
Copy !req
317. It's gonna hurt.
It could go on for hours.
Copy !req
318. Possibly over a day.
Copy !req
319. And I need to know that I can
have whatever I need,
Copy !req
320. a massage at exactly
the right pressure…
Copy !req
321. - Mm.
- …a hand to squeeze really hard,
Copy !req
322. a cool, wet washcloth.
Copy !req
323. Oh.
Copy !req
324. Or a warm, wet washcloth.
Copy !req
325. Oh.
Copy !req
326. Can you do that?
Copy !req
327. I can get better at massages.
Copy !req
328. I'm sure you can,
Copy !req
329. but those aren't really
your strengths, are they?
Copy !req
330. It's… just a set-up for failure,
Copy !req
331. and I know neither of us wants that.
Copy !req
332. No. We don't.
Copy !req
333. Yeah.
Copy !req
334. Dr. Park.
Copy !req
335. Dr. Boyd.
Copy !req
336. I definitely do not know this
Copy !req
337. because it's completely confidential,
Copy !req
338. but hypothetically, if you were treating
Copy !req
339. MMA rockstar Bradley Vargas,
and if I had a ten-year-old patient
Copy !req
340. who would go bananas
for a signed photo…
Copy !req
341. I'll see what I can do.
Copy !req
342. Thanks in advance for the autograph.
Copy !req
343. It'll make a ten-year-old's day.
Copy !req
344. - No.
- What?
Copy !req
345. She's all wrong.
Copy !req
346. She's a Pedes resident.
Copy !req
347. They're all kind and nurturing
and they care about things,
Copy !req
348. and she obviously wants you to keep
all your chargers at her house.
Copy !req
349. That's not what you need. You need fun.
Copy !req
350. Text the redhead.
Copy !req
351. - What redhead?
- Candace309.
Copy !req
352. Change your password
to something I can't guess.
Copy !req
353. No tumors in the frontal
or parietal lobes.
Copy !req
354. Next we should check
for a glial-based tumor
Copy !req
355. in the brain stem.
Copy !req
356. Squeeze my hand
as hard as you can.
Copy !req
357. Lea said she may need to
do that during labor.
Copy !req
358. I want to be prepared.
Copy !req
359. Okay. Okay, that's enough.
Copy !req
360. We need a better look
in the high cervical cord.
Copy !req
361. Is Lea feeling nervous about labor?
Copy !req
362. She thinks she needs
a doula to support her, but she doesn't.
Copy !req
363. You squeezed my hand very hard.
Copy !req
364. I can take it.
Copy !req
365. Mm, I think there's probably
Copy !req
366. gonna be more to it than that, Shaun.
Copy !req
367. I've also looked into
antimicrobial options
Copy !req
368. for washcloths, to wipe her forehead.
Copy !req
369. What else?
Copy !req
370. I don't know.
Copy !req
371. Neither do you, or Lea,
or the doctor, or the doula…
Copy !req
372. That's what's terrifying about it.
Copy !req
373. It's the biggest day of your life,
Copy !req
374. and the only thing you know for sure
Copy !req
375. is that another human is gonna
force its way out of you.
Copy !req
376. High cervical cord is clear.
Copy !req
377. Breathe.
Copy !req
378. Good. You're almost there.
Copy !req
379. The lighting in this room is very harsh.
Copy !req
380. We didn't call for a surgical consult,
Dr. Murphy.
Copy !req
381. I know. I'm here for research.
Copy !req
382. Well, this is a bad time.
Copy !req
383. Next contraction, I need you to push.
Copy !req
384. Okay.
Copy !req
385. I am very interested
in anything you can share
Copy !req
386. about your experience.
Copy !req
387. - What are you feeling right now?
Copy !req
388. Like… Oh, like he's trying to…
Copy !req
389. Oh, rip out everything!
Copy !req
390. Do you wish you had gotten an epidural?
Copy !req
391. Yes!
Copy !req
392. It's too late now.
Copy !req
393. Please page Dr. Glassman.
Copy !req
394. Lea wants to have a doula.
Copy !req
395. Okay, and, uh, you don't?
Copy !req
396. Research shows that
doula-assisted births
Copy !req
397. have fewer complications,
decreased length of labor,
Copy !req
398. and increased breastfeeding rates.
Copy !req
399. So, you do want a doula?
Copy !req
400. N-No.
Copy !req
401. I can precisely measure
the time between contractions
Copy !req
402. and get the right washcloths
and I've mapped out
Copy !req
403. the fastest route from the OB floor
Copy !req
404. to the cafeteria for ice chips.
Copy !req
405. I don't want Lea to have a doula.
Copy !req
406. But… they are good.
Copy !req
407. I am very bad at massages.
Copy !req
408. So, you… You want Lea
to have everything that she wants,
Copy !req
409. but you don't want her
to want a doula?
Copy !req
410. Yes.
Copy !req
411. How do I do that?
Copy !req
412. I don't know.
Copy !req
413. I just…
Copy !req
414. It can't be done.
Copy !req
415. It's like you…
You want a red shirt really badly,
Copy !req
416. but it has to be green.
Copy !req
417. Why can't you just give her
what she needs?
Copy !req
418. Hm.
Copy !req
419. Okay.
Copy !req
420. Good.
Copy !req
421. We need to expose
the underlying pec major.
Copy !req
422. Dr. Park, gently cut
with microdissection needle.
Copy !req
423. Mm. I really need to join a gym.
Copy !req
424. I mean, I know I'm never gonna
look like "The Body,"
Copy !req
425. but I could try to look like
I have a body.
Copy !req
426. Raise the flap and be careful
not to thin it too much.
Copy !req
427. Bradley's transformation is impressive,
but it's not real.
Copy !req
428. Strength, determination, hard work…
those things are real,
Copy !req
429. and worth striving for.
Copy !req
430. Not to the exclusion of all else.
Copy !req
431. The day I lost my job as Chief,
Copy !req
432. I went home and drank myself
to sleep every night for a week.
Copy !req
433. Better to drown my sorrows
than to let my wife see me cry.
Copy !req
434. When your marriage fell apart,
did you tell a good friend
Copy !req
435. that you were heartbroken,
or did you just hit something
Copy !req
436. really hard for a long time?
Copy !req
437. Both are fine, but men don't do both.
Copy !req
438. I'm guessing no one told you
you were a "real man"
Copy !req
439. when you came out,
but that took a lot more courage
Copy !req
440. than getting pummeled
inside of an octagon.
Copy !req
441. I can't see any clear tumor margins.
Copy !req
442. The tumor extends beyond
what was visible on imaging.
Copy !req
443. It was obscured by the pec implant.
Copy !req
444. Close him up.
Copy !req
445. We need to wake him and get his consent
for a total mastectomy.
Copy !req
446. I can't go home yet.
Copy !req
447. I still don't know
what's wrong with my patient.
Copy !req
448. Then why did you ask me to wait?
Copy !req
449. This is for you.
Copy !req
450. Oh. Okay.
Copy !req
451. This will massage your shoulders
whenever you want
Copy !req
452. at exactly the right pressure.
Copy !req
453. There are three settings
and a pulsing option,
Copy !req
454. which I think would be irritating,
Copy !req
455. but it is up to you.
Copy !req
456. When I wear this, you can
squeeze as hard as you want.
Copy !req
457. Also, I have been building up
my washcloth tolerance.
Copy !req
458. I am up to 15 seconds.
Copy !req
459. That's great, Shaun.
Copy !req
460. But I decided I want Theresa
there for the birth.
Copy !req
461. It'll make me feel safer
and more comfortable.
Copy !req
462. I… can make you feel safe
and comfortable.
Copy !req
463. I am the father.
I am going to be a good father.
Copy !req
464. I know that, and I believe that.
Copy !req
465. You don't need her.
Copy !req
466. Maybe not, but I want her there.
Copy !req
467. It's my body and my birth experience,
Copy !req
468. and I want to have
a doula there with me,
Copy !req
469. so we're gonna have one.
Copy !req
470. I love you.
Copy !req
471. I'll see you at home.
Copy !req
472. …less than two weeks away,
so don't get too comfortable.
Copy !req
473. The brain and spinal MRI scans were clear.
Copy !req
474. You don't have a tumor.
Copy !req
475. One less thing to worry about.
Copy !req
476. What's left?
Copy !req
477. There is still a very long list.
Copy !req
478. I need to perform a carotid sinus massage
Copy !req
479. to test for hypersensitivity.
Copy !req
480. I have been working on
my massage technique,
Copy !req
481. but you may pass out.
Copy !req
482. That's how we know
if the test worked.
Copy !req
483. Elongate your neck and turn your head
ten degrees away from me.
Copy !req
484. Did you have a doula
when you gave birth?
Copy !req
485. No one I know had a doula back then.
Copy !req
486. Or fancy birthing suites
or hypno-breathing
Copy !req
487. or the luxury of
three months off to recover.
Copy !req
488. It's not a luxury, Mom.
Copy !req
489. It's important for the mom and the baby.
Copy !req
490. If women wanna compete,
then compete.
Copy !req
491. We can't ask
for special treatment
Copy !req
492. and then complain that
the playing field isn't level.
Copy !req
493. I got a long weekend,
and then back in the plane.
Copy !req
494. I didn't have a choice.
Copy !req
495. You had a choice.
Copy !req
496. Stop breathing, please.
Copy !req
497. You always loved to fly.
Copy !req
498. Maybe more than being stuck on the ground
with me and Dad.
Copy !req
499. No.
Copy !req
500. - Okay.
Copy !req
501. I didn't like leaving either one of you.
Copy !req
502. I just wanted you to see me be strong
Copy !req
503. so you knew you could be strong, too.
Copy !req
504. I did.
Copy !req
505. Being scared and weak,
Copy !req
506. I wasn't always sure if that was okay.
Copy !req
507. - Oh, my God.
Copy !req
508. Wait, is this what was supposed to happen?
Copy !req
509. No. This is not supposed to happen.
Copy !req
510. - You need a total mastectomy,
Copy !req
511. including the removal
of your pec implant.
Copy !req
512. But with training,
your strength should fully…
Copy !req
513. I can't get back in the octagon
with half my chest caved in.
Copy !req
514. - I'll lose my sponsors.
- Then find new ones.
Copy !req
515. Once people know
what you've been through…
Copy !req
516. You honestly think I'm gonna let
anyone know I had breast cancer?
Copy !req
517. What about non-surgical options?
Copy !req
518. What about chemo?
Copy !req
519. Chemo alone isn't the best way
to treat this.
Copy !req
520. It doesn't have to be the best.
It just has to work.
Copy !req
521. There's no guarantee it will,
Copy !req
522. given the tumor's invasiveness,
they'll have to use toxic…
Copy !req
523. I can take whatever you throw at me.
Copy !req
524. But I'm not having surgery.
Copy !req
525. EEG results are normal.
Copy !req
526. You've never had a seizure before,
Copy !req
527. but it's possible one was missed.
Copy !req
528. There are many different types.
Copy !req
529. Does Jean ever stare off,
become non-responsive?
Copy !req
530. No.
Copy !req
531. No.
Copy !req
532. But there was that one
"bathroom episode"?
Copy !req
533. When I came to stay with you,
after Dad died.
Copy !req
534. Oh, that was nothing.
Copy !req
535. It was late and she
fell asleep watching TV.
Copy !req
536. She got up to use the bathroom
and got light-headed
Copy !req
537. and then almost fainted.
Copy !req
538. I think I was just exhausted.
Copy !req
539. Did it happen again?
Copy !req
540. Uh, hardly ever.
Copy !req
541. A couple times, over the last few years.
Copy !req
542. There is no mention of this
in your medical record.
Copy !req
543. I told my internist.
Copy !req
544. He said it happens to
some women during menopause.
Copy !req
545. Have you experienced other symptoms
Copy !req
546. that were attributed to menopause?
Copy !req
547. Of course.
Copy !req
548. Tell me what they are
and when they started.
Copy !req
549. Um, I think I had some
constipation and sleep issues.
Copy !req
550. - When? How long?
- I-I-I don't know.
Copy !req
551. I don't remember.
Copy !req
552. I-I told my doctor,
and he told me not to worry about it.
Copy !req
553. He told me to forget about it, so I did.
Copy !req
554. Mrs. Williams.
Copy !req
555. I have an urgent problem
I have to talk to you about.
Copy !req
556. You'll need to wait your turn, Mr., uh…
Copy !req
557. I am Dr. Shaun Murphy.
Copy !req
558. I need answers about Jean Starzak.
Copy !req
559. She was your patient.
Now she is my patient.
Copy !req
560. Dr. Murphy, if you can wait,
we can talk in private.
Copy !req
561. Okay. Yes.
Copy !req
562. You failed to chart many
of Jean's symptoms,
Copy !req
563. constipation, sleep disturbances,
Copy !req
564. hot flashes, reduced libido.
Copy !req
565. She doesn't remember
all her symptoms
Copy !req
566. or when they began,
so we cannot figure out
Copy !req
567. what is wrong with her.
Copy !req
568. Sounds to me like
she's in menopause.
Copy !req
569. You're a talented diagnostician,
Mrs. Williams.
Copy !req
570. No. She's not.
Copy !req
571. Menopause doesn't explain
her recent blood pressure issues.
Copy !req
572. Mrs. Starzak's chart, please.
Copy !req
573. It's not in there.
Copy !req
574. And she mentioned
several episodes of nighttime dizziness,
Copy !req
575. which I believe were seizures.
Copy !req
576. What is in here is enough
to remind me that
Copy !req
577. the dizziness was menopause.
Copy !req
578. Micturition syncope, not seizures.
Copy !req
579. And the blood pressure issue isn't new.
Copy !req
580. But also isn't a symptom of anything
Copy !req
581. besides her anxiety
about forced retirement.
Copy !req
582. It wasn't…
Copy !req
583. I know it happened during surgery.
Copy !req
584. She wasn't anxious.
She was unconscious.
Copy !req
585. My daughter is never coming to see you.
Copy !req
586. According to this piece in
"Clinical Endocrinology",
Copy !req
587. Jean's symptoms match pretty well
with Addison's disease.
Copy !req
588. She doesn't have hyperpigmentation,
Copy !req
589. or weight loss.
Copy !req
590. - Not all cases presented with…
- Cortisol levels are normal.
Copy !req
591. There have been several
recent case studies
Copy !req
592. correlating hypothyroidism
with low post-op BP.
Copy !req
593. Jean's TSH is borderline high.
Copy !req
594. But her thyroid hormone
is in the normal range.
Copy !req
595. What about sleep apnea?
Copy !req
596. I read about a case involving BP crashes.
Copy !req
597. That's interesting.
Copy !req
598. Mm, Jean's body type
isn't typical with apnea,
Copy !req
599. but we could ask about snoring.
Copy !req
600. I would like to see that case literature.
Copy !req
601. It's not a conventional case write-up.
Copy !req
602. I saw a post on Reddit.
Copy !req
603. Mm.
Copy !req
604. What subgroup?
Copy !req
605. The women's health community.
Copy !req
606. Mm. It's not scientific.
Copy !req
607. At all. It's not helpful.
Copy !req
608. But neither is this.
Copy !req
609. There is nothing here.
Copy !req
610. The medical establishment
isn't looking into this stuff.
Copy !req
611. It's ignored women like Jean,
Copy !req
612. as demonstrated by her own doctor
Copy !req
613. not charting her symptoms.
Copy !req
614. That is true, but is still a bad idea
Copy !req
615. to rely on anecdotal evidence.
Copy !req
616. I agree with you.
Copy !req
617. If you have a better idea,
I am happy to go with it.
Copy !req
618. Keep checking Reddit.
Copy !req
619. Claire, can you look
at social media postings?
Copy !req
620. I'll check out the blogs.
Copy !req
621. You changed your profile picture.
Copy !req
622. - It sucks.
- It looks like me.
Copy !req
623. It's not like I photoshopped your head
Copy !req
624. on someone else's body.
Copy !req
625. If I'm gonna sell myself,
Copy !req
626. I at least want to sell
who I actually am.
Copy !req
627. The women who answer your posts
don't care who you actually are.
Copy !req
628. And based on this photo,
I don't think you know who you are.
Copy !req
629. You're reading Proust?
Copy !req
630. Once the ondansetron kicks in,
you should start feeling better.
Copy !req
631. Just in time
for your next chemo session.
Copy !req
632. I'll get through it.
Copy !req
633. I know you will.
Copy !req
634. Doesn't mean you should.
Copy !req
635. It's dumb.
Copy !req
636. You're acting like an idiot
because you're less afraid
Copy !req
637. of months of pain and nausea
than being exposed.
Copy !req
638. You've constructed a perfect facade,
Copy !req
639. and you're gonna kill yourself
trying to preserve it.
Copy !req
640. But being strong
has nothing to do with being "The Body."
Copy !req
641. Tell that to my fans.
Copy !req
642. My sponsors.
Copy !req
643. I think you should.
Copy !req
644. Tell them none of this makes you a man.
Copy !req
645. You were just as brave and strong
Copy !req
646. back when you were a fat,
bullied little kid
Copy !req
647. that decided to make a change.
Copy !req
648. That kid didn't let other people tell him
Copy !req
649. who he could be
or what he was capable of.
Copy !req
650. Don't let him down now.
Copy !req
651. Schedule the surgery.
Copy !req
652. This woman says she had
chronic low blood pressure
Copy !req
653. and her doctors blamed it
on her "weight loss obsession".
Copy !req
654. Turned out she had
congestive heart failure.
Copy !req
655. This woman's seizures were
attributed to her pregnancy.
Copy !req
656. She was on her fourth doctor
Copy !req
657. before they correctly
diagnosed her epilepsy.
Copy !req
658. I got something.
Copy !req
659. This woman spent years
with the same symptoms as Jean,
Copy !req
660. before she was diagnosed.
Copy !req
661. Parkinson's Disease.
Copy !req
662. You're healing well.
Pathology results show clean margins.
Copy !req
663. You should regain
full strength and be back
Copy !req
664. in the octagon in a few months.
Copy !req
665. Thank you.
Copy !req
666. There's something I wanna show you.
Copy !req
667. "My Next Fight is Breast Cancer."
Copy !req
668. Over a million views,
with some very encouraging comments.
Copy !req
669. A few you will want to mute.
Copy !req
670. And a bunch of women
who are really into scars.
Copy !req
671. The test confirms you have
Parkinson's Disease.
Copy !req
672. We believe it's been
progressing for a few years.
Copy !req
673. Your hip pain may well
have been the first indicator.
Copy !req
674. Can I still fly?
Copy !req
675. I'm afraid not.
Copy !req
676. How do we treat it?
Copy !req
677. Unfortunately, the delay in diagnosis
Copy !req
678. has allowed the symptoms to intensify,
Copy !req
679. and there is nothing
we can do to reverse that.
Copy !req
680. You should still have several
more years of decent mobility,
Copy !req
681. and we can help
manage the symptoms with medication.
Copy !req
682. We'll let you two have some time alone.
Copy !req
683. I'd like to go home.
Copy !req
684. Can you, uh…
Copy !req
685. Can you see about getting me discharged?
Copy !req
686. Tory, please go.
Copy !req
687. No, Mom.
Copy !req
688. It's okay.
Copy !req
689. How's your phone battery?
Copy !req
690. 'Cause there's a charger at my place.
Copy !req
691. It's time to retire that metaphor.
Copy !req
692. I'm busy.
Copy !req
693. You were right.
Copy !req
694. I'm attachment-prone,
and there's nothing wrong with that.
Copy !req
695. As long as I'm with someone
who feels the same way.
Copy !req
696. I found the place.
Copy !req
697. Flannigans.
Copy !req
698. Oysters. Overpriced IPAs.
Copy !req
699. The game on three big screens.
Copy !req
700. - Perfect.
Copy !req
701. See you tomorrow.
Copy !req
702. I want our daughter to have the chance
Copy !req
703. to have everything she wants,
and I want you to have
Copy !req
704. the chance to have everything you want.
Copy !req
705. But I can't.
Copy !req
706. Not by myself.
Copy !req
707. It's okay that I am bad at massages.
Copy !req
708. She will handle them.
Copy !req
709. Thank you.
Copy !req
710. How do you two feel
about frankincense oil?
Copy !req
711. Um…
Copy !req
712. No thanks.
Copy !req
713. Lea,
Copy !req
714. the world is harder for women.
Copy !req
715. I want to change that,
but I don't know how.
Copy !req
716. By being an amazing dad
to our daughter.
Copy !req
717. By letting her know that
she's loved and supported.
Copy !req
718. We'll raise her to be strong.
Copy !req
719. Like you.
Copy !req
