    thanks for having me! important note idk if it was editing or I misspoke in blood rushing excitement--probably the latter bc I mean, it's wired magazine--the diastolic / lower number is still an arterial pressure read veins are passive / not part of BP but still all a closed circuit and this is why i'm not a cardiologist.. at the dismay of uncles and aunties everywhere i'm sure 😮‍💨

    Hats off to hematologists frfr. My daughter’s hematologist had the tiniest hunch that my daughter had AML due to consistent blood testing and other health factors that put her at extremely high risk. She was scheduled for a bone marrow biopsy that same week. By Monday of the next week, her hematologist gently delivered the diagnosis, thoroughly explained her treatment plan, and had us admitted to hospital the next day. She would make sure to speak to us when she was in for morning rounds and really held our hand through it. My daughter is now in remission thanks to her. I’m so grateful for all the very nerdy people who study blood lol ❤

Suppose I know I'm talking to someone with little to no medical background or is in a different field of practice. In that case, I also try to simplify what I'm talking about without being condescending--they may not understand my job, but I probably don't know theirs either.

    The expert series is so well done, Wired always finds fantastic people, and in doing so they are really helping public education. Having clearly intelligent and charismatic experts answer complex questions in the simplest manner possible is fantastic for the millions of laymen like me that watch these. These folks are the Bill Nye's of our era. Plus the cheerful, helpful engagement likely helps shore up trust in educated professionals (especially in medicine) and that's proving to be very socially important nowadays.

    It takes a long time to bleed out to the point of being in danger when on your period, trust me. Several years ago, I had a really heavy flow that lasted several weeks (I'm talking about half a box of pads per day type of heavy flow). I went to urgent care, was told to keep an eye on it, but later that week I passed out in the shower, only to wake up to a doctor explaining to me that I was borderline comatose because my H&H got so low. It was so bad that they kept me in the ICU for 6 days and I ended up needing a total of 9 units of blood... almost an entire person's worth. I can honestly say without donated blood, I'd be dead right now. SO PLEASE DONATE BLOOD IF YOU'RE ABLE!

    I was going through super plus tampons every 2-3 hours. The best treatment is birth control but birth control has caused me twice to end up with pulmonary embolism’s in my lungs arteries (huge clots obstructing almost all blood flow). I have naturally higher clotting factors that saved my life in a car accident where I was ejected 40 ft and should have died, but apparently it’s also causing heavy clots during my period too. So it’s a lose lose situation. But I saw a hematologist in the ICU after my lung clots and they made minimal effort to help or do anything. The pulmonologist was the one explaining what she should have.

    "You gave them the wanted poster" is such a wonderfully concise way of explaining vaccinations. As with the mosquito bite thing... I've always wondered, as someone who appears not to get stung, if it's indeed a lack of stinging or a lack of reaction to the sting. I've felt a mosquito sting plenty of times, but it did not lead to an itchy spot in several instances. It may be an added layer to this question.

    Good information but I do have to (respectfully) correct one thing Dr. Juneja said. He stated that venous pressure is the bottom number on a blood pressure measurement. The bottom number is the lowest pressure in the arteries during the cardiac cycle. Pressure in the veins is usually 8-10 mmHg.

    When I was a teenager, I went to an oncology camp for a week out in the woods every summer until I turned 18. One year (my second, I think), I was receiving chemotherapy treatments that continued during my stay. Interestingly, through the entire week I was there, I only got bit by a single mosquito. However, other years, I ended up getting more than one bite so I would assume that mosquitos can smell the toxic chemicals running through my blood. Just something I found intriguing.

    Weirdly enough, plasma can and does change colors. When I used to donate plasma some years ago, the plasma was a pretty peachy mango color. I took no prescription medication and that was the natural color of my plasma. But the blood bank workers explained that women who take birth control pills or hormone replacement therapy often have olive green/ pea green plasma due to the medication in their body.

    The only caveat to what he said is that the diastolic blood pressure (the number on the bottom of the blood pressure measurement, i.e. the 80 of the 120/80) is NOT a measurement of the pressure of the blood in the veins returning to the heart. Instead, it represents the measurement of the lowest pressure present in the arteries, that continues to move blood forward, even when the heart is relaxing.

  • @biaroca
    @biaroca10 ай бұрын

    Why are they asking questions about blood pressure to a hemathologist? He got almost everything he talked about that wrong. Those are best left for a cardiologist. Venous pressure isn't equal to diastolic BP, it's much much lower. Diastolic BP also isn't what happens after the blood finishes giving oxigen and has nothing to do with oxigen in fact. Not all kinds of fainting are like that, and not all kinds of fainting are benign like the blood drawing one.

    I’m the mosquito magnet, I’m also allergic. I can go camping with 4 other friends, tormented all night by mosquitoes. I’ll wake up several times in the night very uncomfortable and sometimes in pain. Each bite turns red and puffy and radiates outwards maybe an inch or so. Painful ones are on my fingers or bottom of feet. Next morning I’ve had a horrible night of sleep, my friends didn’t get hit, and if they did they didn’t notice. Meanwhile my whole body, even parts covered with a blanket is bitten.

    So, I live in Scottsdale, Arizona, and I didn't realize we had mosquitoes here for years. Then, when walking my dog with a neighbor, I realized we do have mosquitoes as she repeatedly got bitten. However, if I travel to Colorado, I'm apparently fair game there for mosquitoes. Honestly, I would love to know the science behind why Arizona mosquitoes avoid me like poison, but Colorado mosquitoes love my blood as much as the next person.
