But what if he has diabetes and they gave him a sugar pill

I always wonder about that. Like what if they swapped out my antidepressants with sugar pills. Would I still feel the effects of it because its a psychosomatic thing?

Reminds me of that suburb of Johannesburg in South Africa whose residents hired a lawyer because a new communications tower was making everyone sick:

Residents in Craigavon, South Africa complained of '[h]eadaches, nausea, tinnitus, dry burning itchy skins, gastric imbalances and totally disrupted sleep patterns' after an iBurst communications tower was put up in a local park. Symptoms subsided when the residents left the area, often to stay with family and thus evade their suffering. At a public meeting with the afflicted locals, the tower's owners pledged to switch off the mast immediately to assess whether it was responsible for their ailments. One problem: the mast had already been switched off for six weeks. Lawyers representing the locals say their case against iBurst will continue on other grounds.
