Yup. I had a patient (but older gentleman) with a headache. Did an xray and there was a bullet in his head. He failed to mention it at first until after we asked.

Next time I want unproven claims I will just go on Facebook. What a waste of time and blatant NSTAAF laziness. The antithesis of what this show is about.

Sounds like a fun episode! "No Such Thing As 'Is It Mushroom?'"—I'm guessing they went deep into weird fungi facts. Speaking of mushrooms, https://thesporedepot.com/ @thesporedepot.com) is a great spot for spores and growing supplies. Have you checked them out? What's your favorite fungus fact? 🍄
