Did anyone see HOUSE last night?

I didn't get to see all of it, but it was great in showing what your mind can do to you!  Dr. House was on a plane with Dr.Cutty.  Someone got sick on the plane and they first thought it was a contagious/infectious disease...all of a sudden everyone started getting the same symptoms...even Dr. Cutty!!!  They were getting pain and trembling and even getting rashes!  It ended up that the man who was sick on the plane was sick because of the change in elevation because he went scuba diving the day before.  When it was discovered that his illness was not contagious at all, everyone slowly started to get better....WHAT THE MIND CAN DO!

The vomitting, sure!  But developing a rash in a certain place?  I highly doubt that is even possible.

I didn't see it, but I like watching House:)

Oh yessss I saw it! My husband and I are an addict!

Anyway, yes it is amazing what your mind can do!

But I agree though, that I can understand the vomiting but... the rash?

Great episode... all are.

I didn't see the show, but stress/anxiety can definitely cause skin irritation and rash.  It's done it to me a bunch of times.

I also get a rash. I keep getting this weird pain in my head/back which is causing me a lot of anxiety the doctor says its nothing bad but when the pain really hurts i get a rash over where it is hurting!

The mind can mimic amazing things.  I'm positive, with my anxiety that I would have been one of the people dying and freaking out on the plane.  

If there is a symptom, I can make it happen.
