    My wife is a medical professional who works in this space and when I told her this joke, she shared that this is not how epidurals work at all.

    It doesn’t go into the blood stream. It only effects that area. And it wouldn’t go to the brain.

    She says it’s possible it’s a psychosomatic reaction. But leaning towards it being a lie.

    Shame, solid joke.

      Or maybe this person was a patient and not an anesthesiologist so she got the specifics wrong…
