HAHAHAHAHA! I have a strange urge to get some of this and overdose myself. This would be SO cool! Why am I so interested in this??
Vancouver patient oozes green blood: "While the lab worked, so did the operating team. The man came through the surgery well.
The next day, the lab reported it had detected sulfhemoglobin, a condition thought to be triggered by some medications.
'It's so rare that we don't have a perfect understanding how it happens, but some drug donates a sulphur group that binds to the hemoglobin molecule and prevents it from binding to oxygen,' Flexman explains. 'And that gives it the green colour.'
She and her colleagues believe the condition may have been brought on by the man's migraine medication, sumatriptan, which he was taking in higher-than-advised doses, though they can't prove it."
