Mystery Diagnosis - Season 7 Episode 4 The Woman Who Went Crazy
A young mother begins to have panic attacks and has a seizure; she experiences episodes of paranoia and delusions after being released from the hospital, which later escalate to outbreaks of intense violence after she is admitted once again. The cause is later found to be a teratoma and the body's attempts to get rid of it with an immune response, inadvertently targeting the brain in the form of Anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. A truck driver and father of two had been caught off guard by mysterious pains in his feet. Later, he was experiencing temperature changes and the pain increased to the point where he had to quit his job. All hope was lost until a vascular specialist diagnosed him with Buerger’s disease on account of his heavy smoking.
