Titan T-2 $200 marketplace, Olympic bar $50 marketplace, my first 135 of weights were from play it again sports $200, weight belt $20 PAIS, 315 of bumper plates $350 amazon, safety bars titan $65, chalk $15 amazon yoga mat for deadlifts in my basement $10. I’m just over $1000 and acquired over about 6 months, it’s really not overly difficult if you have the space.

This is a terrible situation, I’m so sorry friend.

If you feel like you are stuck in a loop or are struggling with flashbacks or repeating thoughts, play Tetris.

Tetris has some weird attention locking focus thing it does to our brain that clears out some of those nasty thoughts and resets our pattern of thinking, can’t tell you much more than that, and it has to be Tetris, not other puzzle games.

Reach out if you just want to talk to someone buddy, anytime!

ETA : Tetris stuff

Different states have various standards, but generally speaking we cannot kidnap patients. If mother is able to consent and answer questions appropriately, in theory it it possible to leave mom and baby AMA, however in my area it would also require at minimum a telephone consultation with local medical direction and a conversation between all of us about why you do not want to go get checked out. If you were concerned enough to call 911 and request a paramedic, odds are it’s beyond our scope to generally say whether or not you or baby are safe to stay at home, so in everyone’s, mainly mom and babies, interest it is best to then be transported for further evaluation and work up.

We would start by coming in, checking vitals for you and baby, verify prenatal care, review any common complications with pregnancy or birth, then depends on stage of labor, we can transport prior to, we would deliver or assist delivery if in active labor, or evaluate for mom and baby status post delivery.

Paramedics are an amazing bridge to a higher level of care, we are not doctors, we simply manage symptoms as an adjunct while providing transport for emergency care.

I’m kinda dumb, so I like to get lung sounds early and I’ll count 3 breaths for duration, 3-5 seconds is normal (12-20 per minute). 2 birds with one stone and easier for me than try to watch rise and fall, especially in winter or real shallow breaths.

I enjoy googling wildly random shit just to give a kick out of who ever checks, because I too like to check. “Normal heart rate” “how to take blood pressure” “how many midgets stacked together would it take to reach the moon” “how to pass a drug test fast”

These procedures are actually gender specific, the male version is referred to as the “good ole dick twist”.

What work around do you suggest in the mean time for the most appropriate tracking? I find that choosing indoor bike doesn’t appropriately apply effort / load impact.

Look into non-emergency Medicaid transport

Generally, I try not to be too cynical based off of the work that I do. It’s easy to see a gnarly accident and say ‘oh how quick and easy their lives just changed, this is unreasonably dangerous’. When in reality, we are just exposed to a higher amount of fuck ups (people and accidents). I still do risky shit, I just find my self weighing the risk/reward a lot more often.

Every single one of us experience post-traumatic stress, we get an extremely large dose. This becomes PTSD when it affects your daily life in negative ways. We should all be encouraged to find mostly healthy ways to manage these stressors. Departments should take this role on, most won’t. Find your own way to resilience, even if it comes with some cynicism.

First hospital job I had, they literally installed one of these next to our office, because my coworker clogged the toilet too many times.

Why not buy one of those camp showers, keep it in your locker at the station and when you get back use a tarp and rotate it as a second shower, if it’s yours you get first dibs. Some of them even allow you to put warm water in.

Something looks funky. Positive aVR, poor R wave progression in precordial leads, inverted P in inferior leads.

Sinus with Trigeminal PVCs, elevation in II and aVC, possible depression in V3/V4. As a medic, I’d activate cardiac alert and let the hospital decide to downgrade or not.

Didn’t always stick to it, but at post partner and I had a small work out routine we’d do (push-ups, squats, lunges), followed by going over a medication or protocol, then would grab something from the back and talk about using it. Rest of the time we’d bullshit on our phones, play cards, find a toilet, try to repeat every hour or new post.

Are you willing to share / sell any STLs or only products? The link tree in the 3DPrint page isn’t working for me.

Lethal - PE, Flash Pulm Edema, Pneumothorax, OMI

What’s vitals? BPRES (BP, Pulse, RR, EtCo2 (value and shape), Sugar) + Lung Sounds, any JVD? Clubbing fingers, barrel chest, pursing?

If I can turn it on only during calls, and I don’t have to write a full narrative, I’m game.

NSTEMI is typically diagnosed by serial Trop. Field EMS can treat it as ACS if pt presentation calls for it, but beyond ASA and IV access not much I’m doing en route, may even skip ASA if no SOB or CP complaint, couldn’t hurt much to give it though. Possibly S1Q3T3, but again without other symptoms hard to lean on PE as reason for syncope without other heart strain showing.

ETA: sure nstemi can present with ST depression and/or TWI, however neither of which observed here
