Hi everybody! This Forum Game is based in the series "House MD".

It works like that: I tell the symptoms and the users try to find out what disease is. They may look on other sites to find out. As House's diagnosis are too complicated, the diseases here will be easier. Each user have 3 guesses. Let's begin...

Patient: 30-year-old female.

Symptoms: Severe headache, nasal congestion, toothache and lacrimation (she is tearing for no apparent reason). Facial X-Ray is showing an anomaly.

Can you discover what it is? Tip: is a common condition caused by inflamation of the facial bones.

Deathless, no headache and the rashes are incredibly worser than petechial rashes.

Hypermnestra, no deliriums and the treatment failed. Are you sure you want to use the tag "Dr. Richtofen"?

MrStuff, no herpes zoster virus found.

EXTRA TIP:

The word that describes the rashes is "NASTY".

No little "rashys", awful rashes. BODY-WIDE

I have thought of a better one now, actually.
Dr. Haus. Lol. Because it's like "House" but it's not!

Can I make multiple guesses at once?
MRSA? Because if it is, I would treat with non-penicillin based antibiotics.
Anthrax? Because I would treat with normal antibiotics and lock down the patient in quarantine.

New DoC Tag added!

Tip:

The treatment is right but the disease is not. An antibiotic can heal this, but first we must know what disease and what antibiotic to give to the patient!

He feel into a field of poison oak naked, it would explain the muscle pain and the body wide rashes and the muscle pain, and it was raining so he got cold. Patient has a severe case of stupidity

If it was poison oak, then antibiotics wouldn't help...

Still wouldn't help, unless there was bacteria in whatever he consumed.

Deathless, stupidity is not a disease. :P

Dr. Haus, the patient stated that he lived in Queens, New York. An extra tip is that his basement was dirty and had all kinds of creatures living there.
