Despite what Dr. Foreman said in this video, if you have symptoms of acid reflux for over a year, you should in fact, go to see your doctor. Chronic acid reflux can potentially be a sign of a more serious condition- there is a reason most over the counter acid reflux medications say that you shouldn't take it for more than a year without consulting a doctor. This is really only if you take acid reflux medication nearly daily though. If you only take it after a spicy meal or something like that, then you should be fine.

[@letyvasquez2025]

In the case of acid reflex, what are the contraindications?

[@kaylabaker2099]

​@@letyvasquez2025 Not so much contraindications, as things that you might want to get checked for that are closely related to acid reflux (stomach ulcers, GERD, etc). Usually they still want you to take heartburn meds with those (although if you're just taking antacids, they will probably ask you to switch to a PPI instead since they're better long term). Especially with things like stomach ulcers, you might require extra medical intervention beyond the meds.

Theres a reason why older people dont get considered. Its for the same reason why drug addicts and people with eating disorders are off the list too. People that stand to get the most out of a rare resource (young, healthy people) get preferential treatment for that very reason. Not all discrimination is bad. For example, Im 39. But, Im also an alcoholic. If for whatever reason I needed a heart transplant today, they wouldnt even have to think about it. They would just straight up tell me "no" because of my long history of heavy and constant drinking. And that would be more than fair.

[@khriss867]

@@SvendleBerries So the transplant list should be sorted by age and not by the person who is going to die first without the transplant or has been waiting the longest? A 30 year old that has been waiting a year for a transplant should be bumped for a 20 year old that was put on the transplant list a day ago since the 20 year old may live longer? And then the 20 year old should be bumped for a 19 year old, etc... Or a fat 25 year old should be bumped for a normal weight 25 year old since being overweight can reduce their life expectancy. Seems like age should be a consideration only after the need for the transplant is taken into account. A difference in your comparison to alcohol (or drugs) is that drinking is a choice, even if it's addictive, with known health risks. People can get treatment for drinking/drugs/eating disorders. Aging is not a choice.

[@SvendleBerries]

@@khriss867 Youre making it too simple as there are a plethora of variables that can come into play with organ transplants. Organ transplants are purely about who can get the most out of the organ. Age is just one factor of many that need to be considered. - *"People can get treatment for drinking/drugs/eating disorders."* My point is that its an unreasonable risk. Fact of the matter is, is that most people with addictions end up relapsing at some point. And they often relapse more than once. That is why we are never viable for organ transplants. I mean, would you give a gambling addict a loan? Because thats one of the factors that caused the housing market crash in 2008; knowingly giving loans to people that couldnt/wouldnt repay for one reason or another. - *"Aging is not a choice."* Sure it is. Depending on how you live your life, you can either live to a ripe old age, or die young. Sure, thats not always within your power, but thats a part of what we are talking about. Just becuse someone is young doesnt mean they are healthy. The people that have the greatest chance to get the most out of the organ get the organ. Old people dont qualify, addicts do no qualify, thrill seekers/adrenaline junkies do not qualify, people with genetic disorders that cause severe health issues do not qualify, children dying of cancer to not qualify.

[@Devillunar]

I had acid reflux for almost all my teen and early adult life. It was just a thing that I had. But the constant heartburns slowly damaged esophagus so that after a while each reflux became worse than the last. I tried a lot of medicine, visited a lot of hospitals. Nobody found the solution. Last year a had a not so serious injury for which I went to the family doctor to be sure. He was curious about my runny nose, you know because covid and such. I said that is something that I had always, since I can remember back. Turns out I had a sinus infection. One continuous sinus infection for almost 10 years. Not only did it damage my sinuses but also due to the reflux it caused it damaged my esophagus as well. It was lucky that the damage was that low. One over the counter medicine and a regular neti pot usage later I no longer have acid reflux. The solution was that simple, yet I never cared because acid reflux "is nothing serious". If you have constant reflux and don't know why it happens, a doctor visit can be helpful. Because the acid reflux could be a symptom of something completely different.

It's almost like there's a reason pasteurization exists and eating dairy that hasn't been through the process is playing Russian roulette with your guts.

[@letyvasquez2025]

You’ll never know your alive until you had a taste of early onset death

[@anthonyobryan3485]

That's nonsense. Poor quality dairy, regardless of pasteurization, is problematic. I have gotten very sick on low quality, pasteurized dairy, and have never gotten sick on high quality unpasteurized dairy (I know how my sources produce their products, which is important to know). High quality, unpasteurized dairy is healthier than high quality, pasteurized dairy (pasteurization also kills all the beneficial organisms in milk). It all depends on the production standards used to make the dairy products as to whether you'll get sick.

[@k.s.k.7721]

Pasteurization was a way to keep dairy cattle in filth and manure and still produce drinkable milk. Raw milk has to pass so many more tests, while the animals have to be kept on grass, and clean for their entire lives. Where do you think all the dead bacteria "go" in pasteurized milk? They are STILL there, so you are drinking 5 x the amount of bacteria than are found in raw milk.

[@leiah6514]

Not really, it’s more about the storing and collection systems in place. Pasteurization can actually remove healthy gut bacteria (one of the big reasons why we drank milk as babies) and prevent cheese from curdling into a healthy culture. It’s more of a concern when other bacteria is introduced that isn’t normally present in healthy animals or in animals at all.

I found that bit being too old for organ transplant interesting. I myself received a liver transplant at age 63, 10 years ago. I know lots of people older than me who did also. Age is a big factor in transplantation, but it's flexible. There is no written upper limit, but it is heavily considered. The debates over who-gets-what-available-organ can be lengthy and hair-splitting. And think about it--for every patient who receives an organ, another patient doesn't. I'll take this opportunity to make a plug for organ donation: PLEASE REGISTER AS AN ORGAN DONOR. The young man who died and donated his liver to me had 5 other recipients. Yes, six people recycled his body parts; his liver, heart, both kidneys, and both corneas were donated, all from a single person.

Doctor Johnny Fever is in da House!

[@l.a.3479]

I thought he looked familiar!

[@ToHonorKnowledge]

“Is this a seizure?” “SHUT UP” Lmaooooooo

[@paulmoran217]

I've worked it out!.......if every patient at Princeton-Plainsboro gets the same multi-person attention and treatment as portrayed here......there's 11, 637 doctors, nurses and medical A.N. Others at the Hospital!

[@untitled_person1941]

"Does she play bridge?" *laughs* *dies*

[@TheGryfonclaw]

guessing it’s the cheese

[@kweicee]

Johnny Fever, come all the way from Cincinnati to get treatment at Princeton-Plainsboro! I betcha the kid is Johnny and Bailey's!

[@fhaddad3]

Keri Lynn Pratt looks like an angel

[@greenghost2008]

4:40 cool daughter right there.

[@taylorswiftsucks]

8:34 when they cut to the black guy after house said african americans killed me. why they gotta do him like that LOL

[@MsSavagechef]

So, some board with the hospital's financial interests at 'heart' condemn the old man to die, very soon. He could quite literally live for another 20-35 years.

[@l.a.3479]

With a heart transplant, he probably has 10 years AT BEST.

[@DiabloOGM72]

"does she play bridge?" *starts vomiting blood* was it that bad of an idea?

[@sirofsauce4978]

4:46 'does she play bridge' 4:53 *dies* 4:56 Zoom in on house

[@theragingsky]

I feel like if you decide whether someone gets a transplant, you should have to tell them.

[@pancudowny]

"Give it to me straight, doctor--I can take it!... And btw: BOOGERRR!!!"😜😎

[@Coach_Shiner]

"I assume youve been in love" "Is that the one that makes your pants feel funny?" I love it

[@DeeperWithDiego]

Remember when the Death Panels in the NHS was doing this to British Citizens during the British mandated Lockdowns of 19-22? I do. Fun times.

[@Susieq26754]

Thanks to our real doctors out there. Who said these were safe to take on a daily basis. Who never batted an eye, when we told them we had acid reflux. That we took Nexium daily. I'm so glad we have real doctors out there. Looking out for us.🤨

[@Idklmfa0]

Trying to guess what this man has: Notes to keep in mind: -had affair - cheese festival Symptoms: -acid reflux -heart problems -brain problems - testicle expansion -foaming??? I’m guessing the cheese has something to do with it, I just have to know what cheese it is. If its unpasturised it could be brucellosis since it covers most symptoms, plus the cheese festival thing he went to. House will most likely give him an antibiotic for him to take for 6 weeks. Edit: I DID IT AHAHHAHA YAY

[@AegisRick]

4:46 I legit spat out my drink how sudden that was.

[@R.F.9847]

It's acid REFLUX, not acid REFLEX. You used the wrong word in both the title and the description. They're two very different things.

[@computerman789]

You're so right, I was about to state the same thing (like what the fudge?) 🤣

[@diamondaxe4133]

Cheese is the devils plaything is so good, I’m going to use it.

[@VLFBERHTwolf]

Is it normal to have one testical bigger than the other right? What is the different between Tesiticular cancer and one being bigger that the other?

[@maxenfelter]

Normally one is only maybe 10% bigger than the other, not more than twice the size

[@Cow_69]

It’s the same with big breast, one’s gonna be bigger than the other. Now if you feel lumps that’s concerning.

[@kolafluffarts1771]

Well usually the difference is dying or not.

[@EPrimeify]

IS THAT JIM CUMMINGS THE FREAKING VOICE OF WINNIE THE POOH?!?

[@RockySamson]

Nah, but it does look like him.

[@downhomesunset]

@@RockySamson no it’s Dr Johnny Fever from WKRP.

[@erikaswanson7072]

​@@downhomesunset also the teacher from Head of the Class.

[@Green_Rocket]

Am I the only one who noticed the title and description says acid reflex instead of acid reflux?

[@ropeyarn]

Hmmmm. Acid reflux leading to heart problems. Sounds like low Vitamin E to me. Recommended therapeutic doses of antioxidants and minerals, including selenium. No hospital food. Comedy central on the telly, and Black Adder reruns.

[@ItsMe-bt4tm]

anyone know if thats how it ended or if he got the transplant?

[@mdkruse2]

They got a transplant from a woman who was in an accident and on life support, but her heart was deemed unsuitable as it was tainted by hep c. House doesn't believe that and did the whole investigation thing and they find out the woman had gonorrhea instead, which means they could do the transplant. Old dude gets the heart in the end.

[@polarbearhero9803]

I have a friend who has has a heart transplant for 25 years. The rest of her will die before the heart.

[@IronKing-jw6ku]

i remember watching this episode ages ago but i dont remember what happens next

[@shakh_ikromov]

As I remember correctly, another patient appears in hospital, which is terminal. Patient dies but kept on plug to keep organs alive including heart. But she died on something else and House and his team will investigate.

[@PO-xk3qd]

Wow when that old doc was put on menu himself, no a word came out

[@Johnnystiletto-ri8ht]

Had acid reflux to the point i was spiting blood... went to the hospital 1.5 years with no results... started working for a chiro... he did muscle tests said i had a heydel hernia backed me against the wall an reached under my ribs an pulled the stomach out... another addjusted my back and gave me an herb 3 days with them and it stopped...

[@badnewsBH]

I miss Howard Hessman. Rest in peace, Johnny Fever.
