Where's j0ker?????

Season 1 the go-to diagnosis was vasculitis. Since then it's mostly been lupus. And there was one case that ended up being lupus.

For the final diagnoses, here's my list:
House's House of Whining :: View topic - You've Forgotten My Dramatic Voiceover: Finding an Episode

ETA: It would be hard to get a count of the # of times things are mentioned especially as they often abbreviate the names after the first mention. Also, in S1, no one got out of PPTH without a lumbar puncture.

ETA2: And this season has been as good as S1-3 and that's saying something.

"like" except for ETA2 - we obviously disagree..... still, I did watch it, knowing this was it. I have to say for tv writers they held out to the last minute (season) to come 'full circle' to their usual sense of life view, but it seems they've done so. When they don't wait that long - the series dies in a year sometimes less.

Thanks Jane & Kent. Good info. I can see how one could get lost having fun in a fan site like that. Fortunately for me, Firefly didn't make it to a "season 2".

I am curious as to how many times the patient died, and how many of those times they killed the patient.

Hi Ralph - Jane will probably have the exact numbers ... but Sarcoidosis and Lupus are mentioned a lot - but Lupus is always rejected

House: It's never Lupus!

One episode where the final diagnosis was Amyloidosis: (grabbed quickly off google there may have been more. Nice reference site too!)

Hi j0kers! Have a good one.

I think there was one time it actually was Lupus!

I think there was one time it actually was Lupus!

As Jane points out above there was, but still it was always a joke of the team that it's never lupus.

In Maternity, there was an epidemic of an unnamed virus among babies. At least two died before they diagnosed it, including Baby Boy Chin-Lupino. But they weren't the POTW (patient of the week.)

Histories - Victoria died because she didn't get rabies shots in time (as in a long time before she ended up at PPTH) so they didn't kill her.

Babies & Bathwater - Naomi died but they saved her baby

Daddy's Boy - Carnell died

The Mistake - Kayla died. Chase's error.

Sex Kills - Laura Neuberger died before she became their patient. Needed to diagnose her so they could transplant her heart.

Euphoria Part 1 - Joe the cop died

Forever - Kara killed her baby then was diagnosed with MALT lymphoma. Refused treatment so she died after the episode ended.

Informed Consent - Ezra Powell died. Cameron euthanized him (although I didn't consider it euthanasia as he was still capable of doing it himself and, as a doctor, he had access to the means.)

Que Sera Sera - George will die of lung cancer after the episode ends

Son of a Coma Guy - Gabe commits suicide before reverting to his vegetative state so he can be an organ donor for his son

House Training - Lupe died of her staph infection because Foreman gave her total body irradiation

97 Seconds - Stark died. Thirteen's error

Wilson's Heart - Amber Volakis from taking amantadine then being in a bus accident

Joy to the World - Natalie dies of eclampsia so Cuddy can adopt her baby (which she gave birth to and abandoned in a tenement)

Simple Explanation - Charlotte dies because she lied about where she had traveled. (It's also the episode when Kutner commits suicide.)

The Tyrant - Chase deliberately falsifies lab report

The Down-Low - Mickey has incurable disease

Help Me - Hannah after a building collapses on her

Unplanned Parenthood - Abbey refuses treatment in order to help her newborn's immune system.

Niles - CDC refuses to allow them to examine the patient who was thought to have small pox

Transplant - Wilson's patient while waiting for donor lungs to be diagnosed & cured

I think that's all. (I'm not doing the clinic patients.)

House even had an emergency stash of Vicodin in a hollowed out textbook on lupus because "it's never lupus."

Lol. I recall that. A few other hiding places as well.

The Tyrannt is the one that they consider 'Chase killed' right?

 

[Poeia]

The Tyrant - James Earl Jones and Hugh Laurie didn't have any scenes with him. What a missed opportunity.

Chase did kill him. He deliberately led them to the wrong diagnosis so he would receive medication that would kill him. He did it to prevent Dibala (JEJ) from going home and committing genocide.

 

[Kent C]

Thanks. And true - a missed opportunity for sure.

of course.... the Lupus textbook.

Thanks for all of the info Jane. You rock!

[Fudgey]

Hehehehehehe.......

Did you watch NCIS? I didn't like the way it ended!!!

 

[jj2]

Yes I did and I thought it stank! The show won't be the same without Ducky!!!!!!!!!

 

[Fudgey]

Id he for sure leaving? If so then I will miss him

 

[jj2]

I hope not. Like I said the show won't be the same without him.

It's been a bad year for season closers.

 

[Fudgey]

Yes it has......I didn't like the end of Bones at all!!!

 

[jj2]

That be one of the ones that I was talking about!

Bones and House won't be back and now Ducky. I don't think I can handle anymore.

 

[Fudgey]

Bones isn't coming back!!!
