Amazing Treatment of King Charles II of England

When King Charles II of England had a fit while shaving in 1685, he was apparently treated by the best medical advice of the time. He was attended by 14 doctors who --

• drew blood from his body
• forced him to vomit violently
• and gave him a strong laxative
• They shaved his head
• applied blistering agents to his scalp
• put special plasters made from pigeon droppings onto the sole of his feet
• feed him gallstones from the bladder of a goat
• and made him drink 40 drops of extract from a dead man's skull.

Unfortunately, he died two days later.
