In the 1700s, blood transfusion was used to treat psychosis. Oddly, sometimes it worked.

So a question for my followers: Give your best guess as to why this could have worked without looking it up.

I will answer tomorrow.

[macgyvermedical]

Answer: A particularly common form of psychosis occurred in the final stage of infection with syphilis. Syphilis is an uncommon bacteria in that is is extremely sensitive to temperature- so sensitive that a high fever greatly reduced or even eliminated infection with the bacteria. In fact, once quinine became available to treat malaria, which caused repeated high fevers, intentional infection with malaria was used to cure syphilis, which would then be treated with quinine. But in the 1700s, they (Europeans, at least) didn't have quinine yet.

So how did a blood transfusion treat syphilis? Well, in the 1700s, blood transfusions were not done with human blood- they were done with animal blood, usually lamb or calf blood. Since biblically calf or lamb blood was pure and contributed to the sweet nature of the animals, it was thought that if given to someone who was experiencing paranoia and hallucinations, the psychotic symptoms would decrease. This was not the case.

The amounts were usually small enough that the person didn't die. But it did cause frequent transfusion reactions. These reactions frequently caused high fevers, which treated the syphilis and helped decrease the symptoms caused by it.

Damian: yeah i like to take videos of animals i see in the wild. i don't see as much in Gotham as i did back in the league, but there's some cool squirrels around sometimes. Tim: oh you have videos of squirrels? show me, i like squirrels. Dick: yeah let us see! Damian: *gets out phone, brings up video* Tim and Dick: *watching over Damian's shoulder* *distant screams of pain in the back of the video* Tim: Tim: dude where the fuck was this? Damian, absently: this one? i think this was outside Titan's Tower. Tim: Dick: *more screams, crashes and bangs* Dick, casually: hey those screams kinda sound like Tim. Tim: Tim: iS THIS FROM WHEN JASON TRIED TO KILL ME?!? Damian: hm? oh, yeah, probably. Tim: YOU WERE THERE??? Damian: not IN the tower; Jason cracked the window of his car and left me to wait outside with a Kindle. Tim: Dick: Damian: i was reading 'Crime and Punishment'. Tim: WHY THE FUCK WERE YOU THERE?! Damian: i dunno, he just told me he had to run a few errands before he could drop me off at my father's. i didn't know one of the errands was beating up you. Dick: and you heard the screams and just didn't check or worry? Damian: did you see how fat that squirrel was? i was distracted. Tim: oh my god-

minos was such a pussy. if my wife gave birth to an epic minotaur baby i wouldn't have locked him in a labyrinth. i would have taken him to the mcdonalds play place (athens) every day and let him eat as many stray mcnuggets (athenians) off the floor as he wanted. i love you hungry son
