I am amazed at your suggestion. I thought you were a scientist in NIH. I am so happy that you are not one anymore. I would have lost faith in that august body.

In India if a person had convulsion, they would put a key or chappal in front of the persons nose, instead of rushing him to Hospital.
Convulsion, condition characterized by violent, uncontrolled spasmodic contractions and relaxations of the voluntary muscles. Convulsions may be a symptom resulting from various conditions and diseases, such as epilepsy, uremia, eclampsia, rabies, tetanus, strychnine poisoning, and cerebral tumor.
They are usually accompanied by loss of consciousness. During a convulsion the individual’s clothing should be loosened around the neck, the head should be cushioned with a pillow, and any sharp or hard objects should be removed from the area. An object should never be inserted into the person’s mouth during a convulsion. Medical treatment should be sought immediately after the convulsion ceases.

You assumed a sterile needle? You assumed the bleeding will stop? Two mistake in one sentence.
What if the patient was on heparin, or aspirin he may bleed to death. Please try this method in USA, i would not come to see you in the jail.
I am amazed that you do not know that NIH has a separate division now to try alternative medicine treatments. I am sure you would place faith on those doctors who take time to pray or recite some mantras before even looking at the patient or at a crucial time when medical attention to details is required.

There is no need to bring in convulsion here. Convulsion is a separate topic unrelated to stroke. Even there giving a key or some other metallic objects is not going to cause any harm but it functions like a lightning conductor, passing the electrical impulses in the body to the ground. Let us not discuss it here when the topic is stroke.

FYI: If you get a sterile syringe (which is packaged properly---e.g., BD insulin syringes) IT IS STERILE. Even if you take some other needle as the Chinese treatment indicates, she says heat it in a flame so that it will become sterile. You are making an unproven prognosis(that bleeding won't stop) without probably having ever done a similar treatment . Have you encountered such experience in your personal life?
