Welcome!!! :D

I did the same thing. I quit taking it 2 weeks into it. The side effects were horrible on me. I even experienced a few side effects that they didn't put on the label, but I won't go into those. I took it til I was off of snuff, then I did cold turkey. Now I'm 3 months into it and I'm doing...

I transported a kid to a behavioral unit with a BB gun wound to the forehead. He was bipolar and tried to kill himself. He was 18 years old. Sad deal.

In my service, everything is ALS until proven otherwise.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :lol:

Definitely want spinal precautions. How bout RSI capabilities? Do you have them in your area? Due to his altered mental status (combativeness) a probability of head injury, I would definitely consider it as an option. Then wait on the bird.

He was at home and unresponsive when we got him. Put him in the truck and he becomes very responsive when I start the IV. D-stick was 40. Gave him the Thiamine and D50 hoping that the combativeness is due to the hypoglycemia. It wasn't. He was just an *******. He was threatening all of us, and...

I've been a magnet for cardiac arrests lately, and I've had officers help me on every one of them. I love having them on scene most of the time. I've also had one that almost let me get my butt whooped because he believes in that old "people are inherently good" adage. I had to get kicked in the...

If there were no spontaneous respirations, I don't see how you could have nasally intubated either. Maybe a trach, but if you're getting good ventilations with a BVM I would stick to it. As far as not being able to get a line, we're about to go to the EZ-IO's, so that takes care of that...

My how time flies when you don't care. :D

Here's another take on the story. This is the local newspaper in the city where all this occurred. From what I understand, WND isn't exactly an unbiased news source. But then again, in this day and age, nobody is an unbiased news source...

I'm currently using Chantix to quit dipping snuff. It seems to be working pretty well. I've been dipping since I was 15 and I haven't had one in a week. The only thing I've had a problem with is getting over the habits. ie. you finish a good meal and the first thing you want is a dip or a smoke...

That's stupidity on somebody's part.

The bluish tint is common with the LED's.

So are we. I'm 6'3" and have a hard time in the front seats of our current units. My knees would be mangled if the airbags deployed.

+1000 A lot of our volunteer FF's here have them on their personal vehicles, and it's no uncommon to see them go blasting through town. Every now and then we'll catch one running through lights without checking up. One of them caused a wreck because of it a few years back. Idiots!!!!

I have the Surefire E2E and the E2D. One is the xenon and the other is the LED. I personally like the LED better. Sure the xenon bulb projects over greater distances, but it also eats batteries like they're candy. The LED is brighter for close applications and the batteries last about 5 times as...

What model is the ACOG, and would you be willing to piece out?

Good luck with that one. :) I resolve to quit dipping snuff, get back in the gym, and get better at my job.
