A lady friend of mine who worked at an eye doctors office had a patient who came in with vision issues. He was in his 40's and was using daily contact lenses. He never took them out, just put new ones in over the old one. Guess he thought that they just dissolved when he slept. Dude has 3 weeks worth of lenses in each eye. How does someone actually live with this logic ??
Former EMT. Patient whispered to me asking what his blood pressure was. I told him. He relaxed a bit, then said he was on b/p meds. I didn’t tell him he’s in shock, but if he takes it as comforting I’m going to let him take comfort in that.
Sex Ed needs to be mandatory nationwide Hell, My school district did sex Ed 3 times over the course of a student’s education, once in 4th grade to teach them about puberty, once in middle school to teach students the basic mechanics of sex and pregnancy, and once in high school to go more in depth and learn about contraception and STDs
These people who refuse to believe they may be pregnant are a bane to my existence. I’m constantly having to argue with my doctors about possibly being pregnant. I’m asexual and single by choice. I haven’t had sex in 16 years. Yes, I’m sure I’m not pregnant. Yes, I’m really, really sure. And they’re still skeptical.
You just reminded me of this conversation: Doc: could you be pregnant? Girl: No. Doc: Are you sexually active? Girl: Yes. Doc: So you could be pregnant. Girl: No. Doc: You know that sex makes babies right? Girl: Yes. Doc: So, could you be pregnant. Girl: No. Doc: And why not? Girl: I'm lesbian.
It’s simple, they don’t. Instead, they get X-rays and other imaging that DON’T involve having literal giant magnets spinning around you. If you have ANY sort of metal object imbedded into you that can’t be removed, whether it’s braces, a permanent retainer, pacemaker, or metal rod, you CANNOT have an MRI done! At least, not unless you want to experience what it would feel like to have a metal object FORCIBLY ripped out of your body. That’s why we have the saying “Either remove it now, or the MRI will do it for you.”
I have a pacemaker and can get an MRI. Newer ones make it possible if scheduled ahead. They just called my clinic and got it put in safe mode.i also have an implant and have no problems getting an MRI. Times have changed. Maybe Google things first.
I am a pharmacist. Patient: Can you give me some painkiller ointment? My leg i leaking and it is hurting me Me:....What is it leaking? Is it blood? Patient: Yeah Me: Have you showed it to the doctor? Maybe you need to patch it up. Patient: Nurse put some bandages and stuff there Me: Ok. Good. I can give you some ointment but you cannot apply it directly on the wound Patient: Yeah. I know that Me: Great (It is not always obvious to the patient)
Obligatory not a member of the medical community, but witnessed this where I work. Initially after a guest checked in one day in December, I’m going about my normal work day when he comes down an hour later and tells me he can’t get into his room. While remaking his keys, I notice him bleeding a little in the desk. I ask him if he’s okay, but he says he’s fine and after he leaves the desk, I immediately use bleach wipes and Clorox to wipe that up. Not even 5 minutes after that, he says the keys still aren’t working, so I remake the keys again and head up to make sure the door lock isn’t dead. When I open the door, I see blood all over the tiled entryway into the room. The guest must’ve seen my facial expressions and asks if I’m okay, but I just tell him not to put the keys near electronics. An hour goes by and the GM tells me that the guest is being loud and trying to start fights with other guests, so to call the cops. 8 cops show up and I immediately send them to the guy’s room. A few minutes later, one heads back downstairs and calls for an ambulance 🚑. 2 show up, and while I’m assisting them (property has 2 floors, and locally isn’t required to have an elevator per the ADA), he’s there trying to fight against the restraints while 2 members of the ambulance crew, 2 cops and myself are getting him down the stairs on the gurney and into either ambulance. They ask him if he’s taken any drugs and he says no. They then ask if he’s been drinking and he says “only a little. Just 1 glass of wine.” At least one of the cops shakes their head when hearing that. After an hour, everyone has left, and I head to the room with a housekeeper to see the damage to the room. The guy had several different kinds of alcohol (all empty bottle around the room), a mixture of blood and alcohol trailing from the toilet all the way to the windowsill, and then finding the microwave with a broken glass door. The guy was on uppers and mixed it with alcohol, got mad that his girlfriend was angry at him for doing that, and punched out the microwave door and pretty much being a sloppy alcoholic and on drugs, was trying to take it out in other guests.

It’s actually a miracle how some people make it to adulthood without dying from their stupidity.

Im so glad I had practical adults in my life who taught me how to protect and properly bathe myself

Props to the terminal patient. Might as well get that shit in while you can
Sometimes I wonder how we survived as a species for this long.

My fave is: well, if I'm preggo, I'll be a medical marvel and shooting out batteries 😂😂
0:14 I've always wondered, what happens to people with braces or permanent retainers when they have to get an MRI?
I imagine that they’d handle it similarly to the patients with pacemakers. They’d have to use a different scanning method.
It’s simple, they don’t. Instead, they get X-rays and other imaging that DON’T involve having literal giant magnets spinning around you. If you have ANY sort of metal object imbedded into you that can’t be removed, whether it’s braces, a permanent retainer, pacemaker, or metal rod, you CANNOT have an MRI done!

@@lanaj1107 For this kind of thing, ask the doctor.
My mom has plates in her arm and they're made from a non-ferrous metal, so I think it depends on what was put in and when.

Why are grown ass people wasting their time thinking about what is gay and what isn't?
Fear of becoming gay I guess but it is insane to me
Some form of insecurity, I have to guess…
@@miraculousmickiz2076 For sure they gay then.
Thank you so much for your video.
Love is magic
God damn how do these people get through life
I really hope the guy who said where he was from, everyone shakes babies, had a language barrier, and meant rocking a baby.
i wonder if the guy confused about "dont shake the baby" thought they ment like rocking a baby.
OH MY GOD, IM FIRST
Edit: never happened before, so this was neat as a first time. Never gonna care if it happens again tho
