For the people who warned me about the curses when I got here - I'm told I've seen two already. Overworking and oversleeping. So far, so much like med school.
Speaking of which, I stopped by the hospital today and seem to have found myself gainfully employed. In a city where no one dies, I'd had my concerns. Still, I'd like to introduce myself a little better than I managed on arrival. My name is Doctor Robert Chase. I'm a board certified (RACP) specialist in cardiology and intensive care. Currently, or previously, a fellow in the diagnostics department of Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital, and I can bore anyone who'd like to hear it with more of my resume later.
In the meantime, I've taken a position at the City General in neonatal and juvenile primary and intensive care. This means I'll be treating patients from newborn to eighteen years old. I believe I'll also be taking shifts at Doctor House's clinic in the city, seeing all comers. Hopefully I'll meet most of you under better circumstances, but if not it's always good to know who's treating you.
Two questions. Does anyone know the current conversion rate between the rainbow and real money? And what sort of prices do apartments, or rooms to let in them, run to right now?
Angela? I was wrong, there's a palace here that could take the Louvre in a fight. I don't know about the gallery inside, but I'd be happy to find out with you.
Private to House
I take it you're not going to object to double dipping when I'm flat broke.

When you don't know how to diagnose something, talk to the problem. See what it tells you. Wait until you catch it in a lie.
Fine, I'm talking. Beats spending all day writing up my own medical history.
DDX: Delirium Tremens (impact related): unlikely given the constant level of mental clarity and detail/length of hallucination. Which means Psychosis, most probably a brief psychotic disorder, which means I could wake up from this in a day or a week and regain all baseline functions. It would have to be stress triggered, but by what? Did I see something while I was on the phone? Was I hit?
I can give myself a month at most before I rule it out. A month gives enough time to straighten out any electrolyte disorders or deficiencies, sarcoidosis, tick-borne infection, minor tumors and neurosyphilis. More than a month and I have to start to consider something worse. Extensive lesions on the brain stem. An inoperable tumor. Acute subdural hematoma.
In other words, more than a month and I assume House is eating his Reuben sandwich off me while he watches Passions.
