Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2
Every year, millions of hours and billions of dollars are poured into medical innovation, with new methods of improving, sustaining, and extending human life discovered on a near daily basis - yet without some significant accidental medical discoveries thrown into the mix, many of us would not be here today. Unintended scientific discoveries often prove more fascinating than those made on purpose. Perhaps it s the lure of serendipity, or the enticing possibility of changing the world for the better through nothing more than sheer happenstance. Either way, people everywhere are grateful that some enterprising individuals were fortunate enough to stumble into important medical breakthroughs - and had awareness enough to understand the implications of their discoveries. 9: 56 I remember Chicken Pox Parties, where parents would gather their children together so they would be exposed to chicken pox and gain an immunity to it.
There is a children's book called The Chicken Pox Party by Sharon Dennis Wyeth.

Lucy in the sky with diamonds was not about LSD it was a coincidence that the letters were LSD I m not saying they were not on it or didn t take inspiration from it but it was originally that Lennon s son Julian came to him with a picture he drew when Lennon asked what it was he said it was his classmate Lucy in the sky with diamonds. There is a real life Lucy who passed away as an adult from lupus but she s talked about it

As a kid I ended up once with one of those toys - a submarine or something - where you put two tablets inside and it goes up and down in the water. Like a baking powder sub, but with two different chemicals. I later was fooling around with them and figured out that whatever it is specifically that they make, the black sidewalk ants loved it, but didn't long survive their buffet.

You left out a recent accidental medical discovery of a previously unknown part of the human body: the tubarial glands. They're actually a type of salivary gland that's associated with the sinuses. Before the discovery, anatomists had absolutely no idea they were there -- which is crazy considering the number of human dissections there have been.

W h a t? Who's telling a story about penicillin being discovered on a sandwich? The whole point was that mold-- seen as a blight to studying microbes -- could be useful. Like I don't. I don't understand how the sandwich thing makes sense to anyone?

0: 55 For one place that I worked at, I had to take a blood sample on a specific patient every single night.
Since she had such small veins and was combative, we sometimes had to bring 2-3 other health care workers in to get the sample.

My grandmother ate a spoon of Vaseline every day for her whole life, starting as a child. She claimed that it helped her be regular and swore by it. She did live to be in her 90 s and was healthy her whole life.

1: 43 We used microscopes similar to those for my Microbiology class at Southeast Community College.
For our lab day, we would hang out, look at specimens under the microscope, and complete our worksheets.

Minoxidil was created as a hypertension medication. Instead, it was found to grow hair & it really works. I've been using it for years. Women suffer from hair thinning after menopause.

Simple? Pap smears are so uncomfortable and can be painful because for some women, it s like the body is trying to reject it because it s viewing it as a violation. >

My dad was robbed and shot in 1980, they rushed him to the hospital, pumped him with penicillin, only to discover that he was allergic to it. That's right, he died!

Honorable Mention to alchemy. It laid the groundwork for chemistry and created a hell of a lot of things.
Not bad for a science with a 100% failure rate.

6: 56 Viagra was released in March 27, 1998, less than two months before I graduated high school.
Viagra was the topic of a lot of jokes at the time.

8: 19 Our laboratory wasn't as colorful as that one, but the setup for our Chemistry class at Southeast Community College was similar to that.

4: 56 It is crazy how influential penicillin (an antibiotic) is in the health care field.
Doctors constantly prescribe antibiotics today.
