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.
