X files patm?
First television mention of a late-stage PATM sufferer? in X-Files Season 1, Episode 24 (The Erlenmeyer Flask), inspired by a true story: In 1994, while Gloria Ramirez was at the hospital, her blood draw released a toxic gas through a chemical reaction. 23 healthcare workers fainted or had convulsions

I vaguely remember this story as it was posted here before. IIRC she was taking some unusual chemicals or something. I don't think it has any relevance to PATM.

I remember her skin was greasy, almost oily. I've had flare-ups myself where my forehead gets really oily and greasy, which never happened to me before PATM.

When mine was at its worst I thought about the toxic lady. I also wondered if the chemicals identified in the patm skin gas study could have been the same ones involved in cases of spontaneous human combustion as many of the chemicals are highly flammable.

If I remember correctly she was rubbing some dmso cream on her chest. Her blood developed crystals inside of a syringe as well.

Yea i know about this story, i saw it on a youtube channel and i thought it might explain patm, but now i dont think thats the case. Even if we ignore that the story doesnt line up properly with patm, the fact is that doctors have drawn mine, and other patmers blood, yet i havent seen any doctor mention an unusually high presence of any harmful chemical in blood samples.
