I have to say, if I did EMS FT, I'd gain so much weight...like on the order of a kilo a week til I ended up a patient!

Yay got a student today, she seems nice enough so far, had one call she tried to help with everything.

First intubation in a while, made me feel good about it when the cords just dropped in. Did not get ROSC, but can't win them all.

I haven't had a trauma/non code tube in like, forever. CPAP. Good for the patient, bad for maintaining my skills.

I'm wrecked and we only had a road crash, patient had 4 # ribs on R) side with lots of subcutaneous emphysema and a young guy with R) tib/fib # from a rugby tackle

Can't believe we went to freaking Wendys .... but to my credit I only got a 1/4 lb single instead of my usual 1/2 lb double

Buyer came through on my Trans. Offered me $10,500, settled at $11,300. Pretty happy on my part.
Now to sit in a single cab Chevy for 5 hours each way to Vegas with my back seat (I guess it should be passenger?) driving girlfriend... Why did I invite her? :unsure:
Haha

20mg of lido isn't enough for a conscious IO... That is all.

Walked 100 blocks today at the parade in NYC. In the snow to top it off.

I wish I lived closer to my cousin. She posted a picture of her eyes on facebook saying that something was wrong with her left eye. Its a clear picture of anisocoria. 25 of the 27 current replies in the past half hour have basically said get to the ER. She wants to wait until after she's fed the kids and see how she feels then. I then went onto her spouse's page and posted "Get your wife to the ER". If I lived closer I'd be driving over there, but I live over 3 hours away.

Stubborn Irish relatives....


*Update*
She's on her way to the ER. I guess posting on the spouse's page worked.

Me: The patient has some U waves in ECG
Doctor: U waves? You mean T waves?
Me: No, U waves
Doctor: U waves? What, what the hell are those?

Erm ... that awkward moment

If its not raining tomorrow I might go check out some more cars ... I do like shopping, just not the paying for things part.

If I developed anisocoria with the absence of any other symptom, I'd probably wait for it to go away on it's own.

Looks like the Spectra was the USA name for the Cerato and from the sounds of it you got a pretty good deal.

I love my Spectra. After taxes and interest, the total was about 12k.

Nope!

Is your man at all jealous of this car love thing you have going on? I sure hope the tires don't get the sheets dirty

OK that was kinda dorky

Wow, the interest at the bank and the car dealer is mental, like between 14-19% ... I have set a budget of $10k and if I end up getting something I'm just going to pay cash outright.

I think I need to stop looking at a new car and join the gym; since starting on a regular watch I am getting fat; I have gained like 10 kg and everybody else is like "eh, I have gained 20 kg, look!" well thats not helping!

Bought the Landcruiser ^_^
Definitely glad I brought a trailer... Clutch slips so bad. Did it get down quite a bit on price though, ended up paying $5,600.
Still have around 8k in the bank, which I'm stoked about, especially because of the upcoming move. Hard part will be not blowing 1/2 of it between then and now... Lol
I dunno what didn't make sense about my last post, according to NYmedic, but it made sense to me.
On another note, I'm really pissed that my girlfriend left me alone in the hotel room <_< She used to live up here and she went to the casino with one of her friends... And I can't get in, because I'm not 21. So... I'm sitting in a Vegas hotel... Alone... (insert forever alone meme here, haha) :sad:
Clare, I heard a life in crime pays well, though haha
