A young patient was admitted to our floor today with hepatic dysfunction. A liver transplant recipient who has had some bouts of rejection, his medical team determined that he will need to be re-transplanted. When asked if he'd noticed anything in particular that may have caused his latest symptoms, he simply reported, "A couple of weeks ago my buddy hugged me real hard and ever since then I've had this terrible pain in my side."Pretty much cinches for me why the whole hugging thing has got to go.
