A visitor wrote in our great book of #medicalfears that sepsis was one of the scariest medical conditions for them. #Sepsis happens when your immune system overreacts to an infection and starts to damage your body's own tissues and organs. π #oldoptheatre #fear #bloodpoisoning
Four our great book of #medicalfears today we have a recurring one: the fear of developing #Alzheimer's disease. The first sign of Alzheimer's disease is usually minor memory problems but these could get worse over time. π #histmed #greatbookofmedicalfears
For our #MedicalFears this week a visitor wrote #endometriosis. This is an often painful disorder in which tissue similar to the tissue that normally lines the inside of the uterus grows outside the uterus. OUCH! π’π’ #youarenotalone #oldoptheatre #greatbookofmedicalfears
Today for our #MedicalFears we found one in our book that really makes people worldwide freak out (not only one of our visitors): a global viral pandemic! We really do not want another Spanish flu or cholera incident, right? π€π·π€π€’π€§ #pandemic #virus #spanishflu #cholera
One of our visitor's greatest #medicalfear is having any intervention around the head, for "my mind/brain is the most intimate part of me." This fear is also shared by so many people. π’

Our #bookofmedicalfears keeps growing. A visitor's greatest #medicalfear was to have the colon removed...which we can all agree would not be fun at all! π’You can share your fears with us in the comments, or using #MedicalFears. #oldoptheatre
When your worst #medicalfear is the collapse of your #lungs...oh! How many of us can agree that not being able to breath is the worst...so final! Just thinking about it can create anxiety! π Now, take a deep breath in; breath out, and repeat! πΏ

Tonight @Claire_L_Jones & @SashaScambler are giving a joint talk about our fears regarding *gulp* ..#dentists! Exceptional insights and lively discussion tonight @OldOpTheatre ! #histmed #histdentistry #medicalfears #oldopevents
We are not here to give answers to #medicalfears, just to voice them, but by far our visitors' greatest fears are #antivaxxers, with a small group being afraid of #vaccines. In both cases, access to well-researched and unbiased information is the key. #histmed #histsci
If you think that #dentists today are scary, can you imagine what they were like in the past? Come to our talk on Fear of the Dentist today for some historical insights! We still have some tickets left here: https://t.co/ZUAC8rWl4e #histmed #medicalfears #oldopevents
Our #medicalfears today are at the heart of our museum as many visitors have expressed a deep fear of undergoing an amputation.
You can share your fears with us in the comments, or using #MedicalFears or by visiting the Old Operating Theatre in person. #histmed #oldoptheatre
These were the first #MedicalFears shared with us: "I am afraid of having #breastcancer like my mother or die of #ovariancancer like my aunt." Even though we have come a long way since the Victorian era, more research is needed to find the ultimate cure for cancer. #histmed #fear
Todays' #MedicalFears shared by a visitor has to do with the fear of being kept alive when it is time to go.
You can share your fears with us in the comments or by visiting the Old Operating Theatre in person and adding your responses to our book. #histmed #deathpositive #dying
Todays' #MedicalFears is about the irrational fear causedby the sight of #blood! This is called #haemophobia & it is a common fear. After all, blood is red, sticky, and should remain inside the human body (unless you are a woman on a lunar cycle or donating blood). #histmed
Still afraid of leeches? Check out this article from the BC Medical Journal about the history of bloodletting and discover why they are still used today! #histmed #histscie #medicalfears #oldoptheatre

Todays' #MedicalFears is all about the leeches. A practice began with Ancient Egyptians, this procedure is still used today. No worries, you will not feel them as they drink your blood, because they inject you with an anaesthetic. Oh Joy!

Being #childless isn't always a choice! For those who want children, finding out that you're #infertile is heartbreaking. But modern #medicine can provide hope for people struggling to conceive! Share your fears with us using #MedicalFears - we'd love to hear.
We can only imagine the terror and panic of suddenly not being able to breathe, and we can totally understand why this visitor listed this as their greatest medical fear! So we picked this as today's #MedicalFears choice. What are your medical fears?
Todays' #MedicalFears is passing a kidney stone, which is terrifying for a man! Yikes! And who could blame him? But never fear because #lithotomy is here! Just as long as the stone does not leave the body naturally! π #histmed #oldoptheatre #fear
We shared this week the fear of sleep paralysis, so we thought to expand on the subject a bit. Here is a fascinating account written by @sarah_____j for the @ExploreWellcome Stories. #histmed #medicalfears
