Lee passed away in October 2016 at the age of 29. I can’t imagine what his life was like, but he’s at peace now. My heart goes out to his Mum and family and those who were close to him. What a sweet man he was and his girlfriend was a rare young woman. ❤️
I remember seeing this episode years ago, and I honestly don't think I want to watch it again. The suffering of that young man is harrowing. The moment when he literally falls into unconsciousness from the pain, experiences a moment of peace, only to wake up to the same pain a few seconds later, is genuinely haunting.
Yeah, it’s incredibly sad. Lee seems a great guy & this is a terrible affliction for one so young. He really tries so hard to be chipper & brave but it’s obvious the pain is excruciating. This is a terrible blight on someone who’s only 24. I really hope they find some cures/better management of Behçet’s in the future. Poor Lee! 🙁
Then don’t watch it?
@@marcellinemcgarry266 ... What an odd thing to say...
I have to be careful when I have anaesthetic, waking no in no pain then having it all rushing back is brutal.
I’m not a doctor and I know this is like ten years old, but I knew someone with Behçet’s disease, and they were in nowhere near that much pain.
What it does remind of is something that afflicted my mom called Meralgia Paresthetica.
She was put on neurontin/gabapentin which saved her life bc she would’ve ended her own life bc of the unrelenting pain.
Lee is an incredible guy dealing with a terrible disease. I’m so glad he met the lovely Megan to help support him through his suffering. That kind of unconditional love is rare & it’s beautiful to see!
Awnnn they are lovely together, hope he is fine.
His life is an example of what many people suffer. Not his diagnosis, which is rare.
But a severely debilitating, chronic condition.
Bless him for his grace & courage, whatever he decides for his life.
He passed away in 2016.
@@Kunkali what no way?! How’d you find that out?
@@meghanm5000 googled Lee Pearcey Behcet's
Garlic clove in the ear is probably the tamest 'object in orifice ' they probably see 😂
Yeah, but, usually things put in ears specifically are by kids, not adults lol
Did they not think about taking it out?? 😂
That poor young man. I read that he passed away. I hope he managed some quality of life before he went. I have chronic illness and pain and it's no joke 😢
Where did you read it? What person?
Me too
@@missflip6522 the guy in the thumbnail?
I like that the doctor finally said what I've been thinking. You hurt your toe two weeks ago, and you're coming in TODAY for what?
I walked on a sprained ankle for two weeks before I went to the doctor. It wasn't getting better. Yeah, I had to get surgery to stitch the tendon and ligament back together.
I had a paronychia on my toe about a month ago. Have had them many times so I just kept draining it and usually after 3-4 days it will heal. This time it didn't, and it got so bad I was having problems walking and redness was radiating up. The ER doctor understood when I said I get them and they'd usually be gone by now, that is why I never saw a dr until then. Turns out the pressure from my shoe during standing at work was what was causing it to get worse. Antibiotics and a note off for 4 days with instructions to not wear any shoes at all for 2 days and it finally went away. I didn't wait for 2 weeks though lol
@@wolfie7051 I think the point was that he waited two weeks, noticed it was still a little swollen and went to the A&E instead of his doctor. Took up emergency resources for a non emergent injury.
He more than likely could not have gotten into his doctor's office.
Before the doc had said it, I was thinking the exact same. As a radiographer who worked in the NHS it’s insane the stuff folks come through A&E with. We had one girl come in before with a broken nail and she said the wait was too long at her GP so she said A&E was faster. Not what A&E was designed for. We were under so much stress to see everyone within 4 hours, this definitely didn’t help. I can see why the doc was annoyed with him. Thankfully, I’m out of that life now. So stressful.
From one chronic pain patient to another, treasure her Lee. Let her love you, let her help you, let her show you all the ways she cares, and then do exactly that for her as well. I developed debilitating chronic pain after I met my husband, and I sometimes feel like this wasn't what he signed up for. It's taken 15 years, that he is finally starting to convince me that he knew what he was getting into. He's the one who taught me what unconditional really means in love and relationships. I hope you and Megan have the same happiness, care, and love that I have found with my person.
My husband has a debilitating chronic pain condition, I would noch change him for anything in the world! 💜 it is hard, also for the partner but do accept the love that comes your way! 💪🏻 keep fighting!
Lee passed away 😢
Sad about Lee but his soul is free at last, what a remarkable young lady, definitely an old soul herself.
I feel so bad for Lee. ❤ Chronic pain is nothing to belittle or brush off. He's literally shaking with pain, bless him.
Hope his girl stays with him, nice guy
Yes the chronic pain is unbearable, but because there isn't a physical wound to go with it they treat it as a thing of naught. The pain I can promise you is just as real as the pain cancer patients feel especially when it goes on for a long time and it gets completely beyond reason. If they would just listen to us and get it under control within the first 15 minutes things wouldn't go out of control like Blood Pressure, tachycardia. We have no control of what or brain perceives as pain. All we know is that is real as real can get. Normal doses of meds don't work for us, it has to be enough to take a horse down and even then it doesn't work to take the pain away. We aren't drug seekers because the drugs don't work the same on us. What would make you high as a kite, barely takes down the pain us. It just doesn't work correctly.
You don't feel pain when your asleep.
Your not a drug sorry, your Not an addict, your in a bizarre pain that is generated in the brain.
I'm 24 years in and still fight this battle of convincing Dr's I'm not a drug seeker, I'm truly inn pain. You can't fake your Blood pressure at 220/112. You can't fake your heart rate in the 150's. It's not a mental disability its a metabolic disorder, where your kidneys and liver and heart fight you.
That poor dude passing out from the pain :(
Sooo sorry for Lee😢what a brave young man
What a lovely girl that poor boy has. I pray he gets well.🙏❤️
My heart absolutely broke for Lee, and Simon as well. I can’t imagine living in that much pain day in and day out. Watching him talk about Megan was the sweetest thing, I’m so so glad he found her. And I’ve been in Simon’s shoes before, I really hope he’s doing better now 😞
I watch this from the US and I wouldn’t miss an episode , It has given me so much knowledge about A&E patient injuries and treatment . I have learned so many medical terms . It was so helpful when a friend was in very critical condition due to heart issues . He was hanging on by a hair and had many procedures done over 3 months and I knew what the medical terms they were going to do . With prayers and I give glory to god for his recovery and to the Drs and nurses and therapist who did the leg work to save him . He is coming home this week and Drs and therapist are calling him a miracle . It was gods choice to save him , I give glory to god and a huge appreciation for the many , many Heath care workers who had a hand in it !!! ❤
About this "giving glory to god" business, what glory do you give this supposed entity when babies are born with cancer and when all the innocent creatures in the world suffer horribly and die?
The poor guy with Bechets- what an awful time he must have . It doesn’t bear thinking about and I’m glad he has a loving mum and girlfriend to help him through his darker days but so sad there’s no cure.
He’s really an incredible young guy. I’ve got chronic nerve pain & it makes life very hard. His disease seems a next level of suffering & he’s such a lovely fellow & deals with this horrific condition so gracefully. I really hope they find a cure for it or, at least, find a better way to manage it. This is no life for such a young man but I really admire his courage in dealing with it.
Thinking og him x
Hopefully there will be a solution to help him lead a more pain free life. I truly understand, I have chronic pain and it is hard for others to understand.
@snowangeliquexx when? Why?
That nerve pain is excruciating. I blew out my L5, and over the years my peroneal nerve died, but the night it took its last hurray I was in so much pain. Fire! Fire! And more fire! Then nothing, which was also awful. Three years later, it hurts more every day!
Literally the whole time im watching this im thinking that i know exactly how Lee feels. I have fibro and cfs, and some days i can barely walk, if at all. Its literally a curse being trapped in your own body with a disease that causes excruciating pain that cannot be cured, only managed slightly or curbed a bit,,,
Yes..and only then do we find out how little compassion and sympathy there is in our society..
Lee sadly passed away in 2016. Behcets is a horrible condition to suffer with.
Rev. 21:3,4
Rest in peace Lee,heart breaking to hear,sweet,sweet man ♥️😢🇨🇦
Behcets syndrome
Hope his girl is doing well, Does Betchets kill you, or a secondary cause?
Megan you are amazing ,my heart goes out to youboth ,I have several auto Immune disease ,I know the pain .and the problem getting a diagnoses.
Good afternoon Banijay and everyone watching.❤
Oh dear Lord. That poor man.
I feel bad for Simon.. I wouldn’t take her back. Not after what she said and put him through. Mark my words, she’s going to do it again. God knows what price he’ll have to pay to keep her.
I absolutely love the doctor who is speaking in the introduction about unconditional love. He’s such a beautiful soul. Does anyone know his name?
The pain of a dislocated shoulder is horrendous. Poor guy!!
I feel so bad for the guy who's in so much pain he passes out. Awful!!! 😪😪
My heart feels so full for Lee. It seems to be rare these days for someone to look at another and know they're the one.
I’m always proud when I see a fellow Canadian being polite. Ridiculous I know.
Not ridiculous at all..... I'm not Canadian and l thought how polite and very respectful he was 'He does his country proud!'
Just took a train across Canada and everyone I talked to was so polite. I love Canada except when the smoke blows into US.
Simon, you are a dear sweet man. You are good enough. Hugs.
US hospitals don't care weather you are in pain Or not- no pain meds unless you have had surgery! You guys are so humane! Love you all!
Stop your BSing...
Not true. I had no problem getting opiates if I needed it.
What Simon went through is just like my mom. After 22 years of marriage, he abruptly said he wanted a divorce and left. I've never seen anyone go through heartbreak like that. It was awful.
It never ceases to amaze me that some people waste a&e’s resources when common sense first aid would suffice!,,
They are also a triage and after hours clinic. They set up services for specialists as needed for patients that aren't emergency.
Please tell me what they’re sucking on for pain and why aren’t they receiving pain relief by IV? Thank you
It's the same you have in the dentist. Laughing gas. Nitrous oxide. It's a mixture of that and air in such concentration you can safely breathe it continuously. It's for acute situations, not longer term pain management.
It's nice to see someone from Canada, like myself. I am from the 'Toronto' area. I hope the couples are doing well.
Good morning Banijay, and everyone ❤️🙂⚘️🏥.
Good morning Donna
@@KerryWhite-fc7gr Good evening Kerry. I hope today is cooler here. It's been in the high 30's all week so far. I hope you have a great night my friend ❤️🙂⚘️.
Good morning all!
@@diananievesavellanet Good morning Diana. I hope you have a fantastic day 🙂⚘️.
To this amazing young man with betchets, (totally spelled wrong) where it causes so much pain. Well, I was sitting here in my kitchen watching him go through this agony then suddenly I started laughing, like really laughing! I’m not laughing at him, I’m laughing because I say to myself ARE YOU SERIOUS, what else is this world filled with, what other illnesses or painful things people will suffer with? It just floored me that this man is suffering with this! I’m so sorry and I wish I could take that pain from him! I will pray for his peace to come, no more pain so he can live a happy life!
Apparently he passed away. I’ve had sinus, neck, gall bladder, wrist, foot surgeries, chronic pain, and I’ve learned to never say “10” as the worst pain, or “this body part causes the worst pain” because you’ll always be surprised by a new and awful pain..
When Lee said he wished he had of been in a car accident and had a bunch of broken bones, at least the doctor could fix those. Yes the doctor can fix broken bones but she will still live with pain, intense pain for the rest of your life. I'm living proof of that. I pray for him and pain relief for him.
Good Evening/ Night Ladies and Gentlemen! Wow, that shoulder went straight into socket! The poping sound!
I really feel for Lee, that’s so painful, mentally, just to watch. I’ve got chronic pain myself, as I’ve got Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, but my pain is pretty well controlled. I really hope Lee’s pain can be controlled to some extent. This video is several years old, so hopefully things have changed since this video was made. ❤♥️♥️
From what I can see; the hospital over in EU doles out a lot of pain killers. Here in Canada; the best they give us is an Ativan or a Tylenol.
I deal with chronic pain, but mine is child's play compared to Lee's. He's amazing. He's got such great humor, I kept expecting him to pop off with, "Do I make you randy?"
Watching Ahmed thinking that has to hurt.
I dislocated my shoulder and elbow (same arm different times) when I was under 5 years old by playing around when my dad was holding my hand. No memory of it. I remember my mom said that when I dislocated my elbow, the pediatrician wanted to wait a week and then break my arm to fix it. I got a new pediatrician.
I just find it interesting that I have zero personal feelings (just basic human sympathy) for injuries similar to what I had that I have no memory of.
@11:34 at least the guy with the toe injury realized that narcotics are not good on an empty stomach!!
He was angling for a free breakfast methinks 😂😂
No..they wouldn’t and don’t offer that first for pain, you don’t have to eat w narcotics anyway. He didn’t want to take acetaminophen or ibuprofen without eating.
I hope I NEVER dislocate ANYTHING 😮
I can dislocate shoulders,hips and kneecaps in a trice. The trick is to rlex and stay calm. Easier said than done. I put my own joints popping back in I get the ice packs and painkillers out.
It’s not much fun, that’s for sure
Lee's girlfriend , I think is absolutely amazing. She sticks with him and asks for nothing. .
That doctor was so rude to the chap who hurt his foot.😮
I think it's because he wasted the emergency departments time. He'd had a sore toe for weeks and didn't bother seeing his GP. Even if the pain was worse that evening he should have seen a GP the next day. His issue was not remotely close to being an emergency.
Dude with the bruised toe…well I understand where he is coming from and that toe injuries hurt like a mofo. Been there myself, though what I thought was a bruised foot that just needed some rest turned out to be three broken toes (in a spectacular mixture of blue and violet, with a subtle green hue around the edges). So back then my mum had the right hunch to insist on taking me straight to hospital.
I am not saying that him waiting for a few weeks and then going to the ER was a smart move. He probably short circuited a little when he realized that things were not really getting better and that he would need to wait another few weeks for an appointment (meaning more time in pain) at his GP. And his head went „Nope, screw that, you’re going to the ER“.
so in essence, this is another case of somebody treating the emergency department as a sort of express lane for medical services.
I love this show, but why do they keep reposting these again like they are new episodes?
Women handle pain better than men because 'womens pain' versus mens pain are treated differently within families and by the medical establishment. Period pain, even extreme pain, is treated as normal, rather than being investigated or adequate pain relief prescribed...its almost treated as a rite of passage
7:00 I am able to see the LAS/HEMS blue call/trauma call book. I used to work at RLH ED where this would be deemed confidential. Although it does not reveal a patients identity, it should not be shown on television for anyone to see.
It has been run past lawyers up the wahzoo I'm guessing. The show has never been legally done by the patients or their families
Are there any docuSeries like this that take place in India? I've about watched every episode filmed in US, AU, UK. Would like to see emergency care in other countries. Used to work in a hospital & I still find it fascinating to watch in retirement.
I feel so awful for that young man. I have a different form of vasculitis. At least mine has a medication that came out a 1 1/2 years before I was diagnosed. It is a 2 in a million form that I have. My immune system is terrible. 20% mortality rate in 5 years.
I agree men don’t handle pain as well as women my husband hurt in weck. He went to hosp came home with strong pp . He had a shoulder pain was screaming taking 2 strong pp. and went back to hosp…..I have 9 or more health problems I never screamed once when my colon blew a hole they cut me hip to hip sent me home like that .ya I cried I never screamed or cussed. I took 1 pp I was like that for 5 months had crush leg I didn’t scream I taught it was sprain until my Daugherty in law said your leg should not be shaking like that I could walk .took to hosp I my hubby was shocked when they told him I had to have emergency surgery so I had to go to another hosp was in a long time.then was down for a long time in wheel chair … had 7 more surgeries since then .have a feeding tube iv because when colon blew . My throat closed up .but I know God with me has a reason for my pain…I’m never out of pain…
Man, all I can really say is, I’m so sorry you’ve been through so much. I hope you’re doing better nowadays. 🌸
14:53 being a drunk is not something to he proud of 🙄
Main question...where does it hurt? Only answer...all over worse than anywhere!
Doesn’t sound like Behçet’s disease. Love how the doctor questioned the big man baby about his two week old foot injury!
Have some sympathy. Some people, including women, can have trouble going to the hospital on time. Is it dumb? Sure. He’s lucky it wasn’t worse. But calling him a “big man baby” is just rude.
Do they have a instagram?? So cutie Lee and Megan, the fainted guy also, he got his girl back. Lovely
27:00 😢😢😢😢 ahh Simon
Heartbroken and not eating caused a fall & injury 🥺😞
Fuck that's heart breaking
Seen this already!
Plaster casts? How old are these?
What is the song at 6:48
What’s in the breathing thing?????????
Likely nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas
🙏❣🙏
Hope Lee'S girlfriend stuck with him
why not steroids for Battens disease.... or biologics
Nah u should’ve seen my face when simons wife came back at the end, all that for nothing
Old episode... why bother
What a horrible disease- Bechets 😢
So because he has this disease that causes pain, he can't drink water without help? Don't mean to sound coldhearted, but that seems a bit much
The amount of drugs he was given were also giving him problems, and yes..that’s very cold-hearted.
@johncspine2787 Sorry you feel that way, but he is moving his arms, adjusting his blanket, but yet can't take a drink without help. I'm not saying he isn't in pain. I'm just saying it seems odd how he can't hold his own cup.
@@kristinarobinson5277 then you also weren’t watching very carefully..he was joking around with his girlfriend about making signals for how much he could drink, and you’re just as “sorry” to me as you are “empathetic” about his pain.
What was the name of the disease the young man had?
Behcet's disease
Does Behcet's respond to marijuana or one of the compounds (THC, CBD)? There has to be some relief outside of manmade compounds.
Dated a guy who could only take OxyContin for pain. That or smoke weed. Weed may be legal here, and all the ads say ‘don’t drive high’, but compared to being on Oxy? I’d take him high every time.
Actress Rosie Marcel is in an article where she says sitting in an ice bath for 3 minutes a day, five days a week has all but banished her Behcet’s disease symptoms. I wonder if it would help the poor guy 😯🤷🏼♀️🌷👍
He passed away in 2016 😢
I call nonsense that men can’t handle pain look at him it took two weeks to get looked at

I hear you on that Kerry. I'm fed up with seeing almost naked butts on a G rated channel. I report them, as they are harassing us with their comments. 🙂⚘️.
Same here. I am disliking any comment made that has those profile pics

@@inge191157 where did u hear that from
Of everything you saw in this video that's what you felt the need to comment? That guy lived his life in extraordinary pain and passed away back in 2016.
@@BJM1134 cool story thanks for typing it out. 0 fcks given .oxoxox
I wonder if things are still like this program shows. I just saw a documentary about a journalist that went undercover inside A&E and the patients were treated horribly. People having to wait for 40+ hours unattended in the "Fit and Sit" areas. Reckless care, neglect. Makes you wonder.
While I don’t want to discredit the professionalism and care the medical care professionals display on this show, I think it’s important to remember that people absolutely tend to be on their best behavior when they know they’re being observed, recorded, filmed, etc. in their place of work, (especially for something like a television series,) and you know that your personal and professional reputation (and, by extension, your job/livelihood) all have the potential to be significantly affected depending on how your behavior is viewed by others.
As you might also notice, there are often dozens of people in the waiting rooms in every episode that we never see or hear about with respect to their medical needs, care, or outcome. This is not to say that those people and their stories are being excluded for “nefarious” reasons (like being mistreated by the doctors,) as they are likely mostly either very mundane/“routine” visits (ie. Kitchen/household mishaps, sprains and fractures, cold & flu cases, etc.) or the patient declined to have their visit/medical care featured on the show; (Which is also completely understandable) that being said, it does mean that we don’t know or hear about or from the majority of the people who are treated at even St. George’s on the days they film, let alone everyone else who’s in hospital, or receiving care from any of the hundreds of other A&E facilities in the country.
The producers/production company also has extensive legally binding contracts with the Hospitals they film and feature in their show. I think it is very likely that there are clauses in these agreements prohibiting the production company from portraying the medical facilities in unfavorable ways, or including any footage or content that would imply unethical treatment or malpractice by the staff in any way.
At the end of the day, these shows are ultimately made for entertainment; and, while they do consist of real-time events, people, and their care in these facilities, these shows aren’t made for or intended to be an accurate, sociologically/scientifically reputable account of the “reality” of people’s experiences in UK A&Es.
All of this to say that, while I love this show, and I genuinely believe that the doctors, nurses, and other medical assistants and administrators here are at the top of their field in professionalism and skill, I don’t think that this show (or any like it) can/should be considered an accurate, unbiased, or comprehensive representation of what health care is like in the UK. Many of the problems that have come to light/gained traction in recent years are hardly new, but have only now really come to the attention of Americans, Canadians, etc.
That being said, it is worth noting that there have been efforts in the past several years by both Medical institutions and some members of the British population to incorporate more privatized options and policies in the UK’s healthcare system to make it more profitable, and allow individuals to have more options for their own care than the NHS has traditionally provided. Of course, they brought in one of the biggest consulting firms in America to do this, and while the US is absolutely the best country to model if you want to have a profitable healthcare system, well… I probably don’t have to say much more than that.
I can’t say for certain whether this is the sole cause of the purported (and likely legitimate) deterioration in the quality of treatment and care in UK facilities, but it* certainly hasn’t helped to improve them in those areas.
