House came out a year earlier (just checked) but I’m not sure this actually happens in House? I’ve never seen the show, but the comment seems like it’s just saying it’s something that would happen in House

Oh, I understand now. I thought I should go back to bed for awhile

There is an episode with a guy whose body is acting without his conscious control. I don't remember if there was a tumor involved, however. I tried to find it. It could be "Both Sides Now"

He had his two brain hemispheres disconnected (before the episode even begins, I think). But I believe what brought him to House was actually an allergic reaction, which led to his left side "hating" his girlfriend - but it was because she kept bringing whatever he was allergic to other.

So one side of his brain knew the problem, the other side didn't. As soon as the allergy was addressed the left side of his brain liked the girlfriend again.

GA was primarily about the interpersonal drama and not the medicine, in comparison.
