Wait, deep vein thrombosis? Really? How could he simultaneously know what that was and thought that he had it?

Truth. I've extubated people with end stage copd and their first question is "hey, can I go out for a smoke?"

I'm kind of glad you guys are out in the field sorting it out before they get to the ER and ICU. Although we get a fair amount that just walk in anyways.

Oh I am lol. I'm sure a lot of people are but probably needa nsfw tag.

Did you have a bolt or an icp/cpp monitor in? I was just working in neuro last night and had a patient with a bolt and I'm just curious what that feels like or just kind of what it's like in general. It's usually hard to ask about it on nights because everyone is asleep.
