I'm Having a Baby!


A patient was brought to the hospital because he overdosed on Tylenol and was suffering from a bit of liver damage.
Here is an excerpt from a nurse's notes:
"Patient had a BM, during which he said he was having a baby, and sure enough there was a
toy doll in his BM... Nurse is insistent that this patient needs referral to psych."
When I asked the patient if he had anything else inside him he started cackling wildly and yelled "LOVE!" Not believing he had only love and a baby inside him, we had his abdomen X-Rayed. He had some lose change as well as a tiny plastic object. When shown the X-Ray, the patient identified the plastic object as a bottle for the baby.
