I have read that from 1215, priests were not allowed to perform surgery
(inclusing phlebotomy), but I am not sure where I would go to find the
injunction itself. But even more difficult, I suspect, is to find out
how long this rule stayed in place; was it ever repealed? Was it
eventually ignored? Is it still the rule? Does anybody have any
answers?
Thanks, Melissa
