I love hearing about what happens in human medicine. I follow a bunch of medblrs and I know I have a few following me too… I’m pretty sure it’s because we’re both fascinated/slightly horrified by what our sister profession gets up to 😂

I heard from a human doctor about something called scolomine races. Scolomine is a muscle relaxant that is usually used in surgery. Inject it and nothing happens for a bit. But when it takes effect, you essentially collapse in a heap.

I am in no way condoning this but what happened was a bunch of new grads working in a rural area had nothing better to do (cus the hospital was under stocked in everything except scolomine). One person stood on the side with a stop watch while the rest lined up. They injeceted themselves and ran. The last person to collapse was the winner.

Omg.

what the fuck
