Had a dream last night that we were losing 4-0 to Aston Villa at home, then Mirallas scored and we ended up being 4-3 down in the second half, then Kev got stung by a bee and had to be stretchered off.

I need to stop sniffing glue.

I dreamed we beat arsenal 4-0 but all the media outlets only had us down as winning 3-0. Massive conspiracy.
 


John Arderne (1307–1392) was an English surgeon, and one of the first of his time to devise workable cures. He is considered one of the fathers of surgery, described by some as England's first surgeon and by others as the country's first "of note". Many of his treatments are still in use today. Arderne's help was given to both the rich, and the poor. His view on fees was that rich men should be charged as much as possible, but poor men should be remedied free of charge. His remedies for illness are considered substantial for his time. Arderne recommended opium as a soporific and as an external anesthetic that the patient ‘schal slepe so that he schal fele no kuttyng.' In his document about Fistula in ano, John of Arderne sets out not only his operative procedures but also his code of conduct for the ideal medical practitioner.

He developed several treatments for knights, most notably for an infliction called "Fistula In Ano," a condition where a large, painful lump appears between the base of the spine and the anus. He could successfully cut this lump out, and described how to do so in a historical document which still remains. In technical terms, The Fistula in Ano, without any regard to the strict definition of the word, is understood to be an Abscess, running upon, or into the Intestinum Rectum; though an abscess in this part, when once ruptured, does generally, if neglected, grow callous in its cavity and edges, and become at last, what is properly called a Fistula; this condition is now diagnosed as a sacrococcygeal fistula, more commonly known as a pilonidal cyst (This developed due to long amounts of time sitting on a horse.) He also created an ointment for arrow wounds and clysters made out of hemlock, opium and henbane in 1376.

I don't know much about medicine but that looks a bit off even with medieval standards.
