I like this podcast, but as a doctor, I find that hearing about medical things from a non-medical person makes me cringe. IE aberrant placement of the coronary artery is not a "misshapen heart" & 105 is not a life-threatening temperature

Just discovered this podcast but I’ve already binged all the available episodes & am hooked. It started a little slow, but each case has been more interesting than the last. Some have actually shocked me when the cause was revealed.

Description

The human body is a miracle. But when it’s not working, it can be the stuff of nightmares. On this new series from master storyteller MrBallen, we’re sharing medical horror stories and diagnostic mysteries that are surgically calibrated to make your blood run cold.


From bizarre, unheard-of diseases and miraculous recoveries to strange medical mishaps and unexplainable deaths — you’ll never hear the phrase “heart-stopping” in the same way again. MrBallen’s Medical Mysteries is a first-of-its-kind collaboration between MrBallen and Wondery, the award-winning company behind Dr. Death.


Follow MrBallen's Medical Mysteries on Amazon Music or wherever you get your podcasts. New episodes publish for free every Tuesday. Prime members can binge episodes 57-64 early and ad-free on Amazon Music.
