Question: When you conduct experiments on yourself are there any side effects than you have experienced?

Keywords: , , ,

  1. Yes, but they are minor and expected.

    We take a lot of trouble to make sure we know what the side effects will be before we do something on humans. So before I do something to myself or someone else, I know what the likely side effects will be and the subject can make a decision if they still want to participate.

    Typical side effects I’ve experienced from experiments are:
    – muscle soreness after have exercised hard or had my muscle stimulated with electricity
    – small bruises from needles, similar to if you have a vaccine
    – a sore throat from having a tube down there
    – not being able to use my hand or arm for a few hours because it’s been anaesthetised.
    – near fainting caused by a reflex
