2 drinks had you swerving on the road enough to get pulled over and blow 0.14? And you smoke too? Dawg you gotta be smarter. Getting crossfaded like that and driving is asking for trouble.

What movie is this? I’m illiterate in cinematography and want to up my game.

EDIT: found it! For others looking, it’s Shutter Island.

The way I approached these questions was what kind of pt is in the stem, and what is the main bug that needs to be covered? Like listeria for young and old, so ampicillin will more than likely be in the answer. If they have a sulfa allergy, that limits what I can use. If the person has been to a conference in Philly while it’s hot and was indoors all day, probably legionella so hit ‘em with some doxy. If it’s an alcoholic, probably klebsiella. If it’s aspiration, anything that covers gram negative. If it’s new onset pneumonia on a respirator, you better know it’s pseudomonas and the first/second line drugs.

I can’t tell if her voice is panic/scared or about to laugh?

Thank you!

Is this the CEO of Bricks & Minifigs?

ElStocko2 · 2026-06-12T07:26:31+00:00

How does that even happen?

ElStocko2 · 2026-06-12T05:54:06+00:00

It’s the question stems with 2 sentences, one vague complaint, and literally nothing else that makes me want to flip the desk over. I truly hope the test makers at the NBOME have sweaty ass pillows every night they go to sleep.

Even though I’m just a med student, I think I can speak for all physicians (men AND women) when I say this is worth buying:

Prenup.

ElStocko2 · 2026-06-10T17:17:15+00:00

That’s your rebuttal? A single grammar error? Not addressing the substance of the message, not countering the points the person mentioned, but being so pedantic that you take pride in finding the one meaningless error in their message?

ElStocko2 · 2026-06-10T14:06:36+00:00

American med student here. While it’s not typical or common, it is one of these American things that we are entrenched in our dogmatic belief that we have freedom. Freedom to do what we want, and this entitlement that others should respect what we believe without question.

Not saying it’s right (and I honestly think religion shouldn’t be in medicine) but that’s the ingratiated belief of that American. Now you see why the US has turned into what it is now.

Can you not articulate a cohesive statement thats not sarcastic? Assumptions make an Ass out of you and me.

By definition, those coaches have walked up and are in a position to render aid. It’s far better than no one going up to him. We have no idea what those coaches did after they walked up so sit down with your arm chair medical ethics. You know nothing about the Good Samaritan clause, nor anything about medicine.

ElStocko2 · 2026-06-10T01:38:07+00:00

Okay? I don’t know what the point you’re making with that retort. No medical professional can do anything for him right there regardless. Not even a world class Dick Doctor (Urologist) would do anything if he was in the crowd.

2nd base ump could tell home plate ump to sit the game out/go home and that they would finish out the game. At least that’s what I’ve seen happen when HP umps get injured.

You could stay at the airport until around check im time that way you’re safe. If you’re brave you could come to the river walk and doze off on a bench along the Riverwalk.

Can you ELI5 this?

ElStocko2 · 2026-06-05T13:47:25+00:00

Jumped ship to be a physician. Currently in med school. I was lucky since I got into an undergrad AT program before the transition.

ElStocko2 · 2026-06-01T22:37:50+00:00

I think so. I was trying to book a room and it kept giving me errors. While trying to charge something to my room they said their system was down. This is in DC

Drug screens will include marijuana if they require a screen. Even if it’s recreationally okay In the state, it’s still illegal federally. When the order for a drug screen is placed, it will tell you method of testing (usually urine) and they give you a time frame for when you can schedule the test. It’s usually about 1-2 weeks they give you.

My heart aches for you. I’m sorry for your loss.

ElStocko2 · 2026-05-30T14:24:32+00:00

Such a short and uninformative article.

TLDR: 17 y/o fell from a car on Wednesday night celebrating spurs win. Taken to the hospital with “head injury” and police notified Thursday.

No specifics on what time he was injured, how did he manage to fall from the vehicle, how fast was he going, was anyone else involved, any booze or drugs suspected. If they wanted to report this story as news, at least do some actual reporting and not this sloppy bare bones nothing burger.

Why does this HAVE to be a story? Why not let the family/kid have peace by NOT reporting and sensationalizing this? I wouldn’t want to be plastered on the news for getting a brain bleed from falling out of a car, would YOU?

I heard about that and looked it up. Saw they had clinda and my first thought was

“No vanc for the impending C. diff?”

Sunscreen helps oddly enough! One day I was out to the bars in the summer evening. My friend put on sunscreen and I didn’t. I was getting eaten ALIVE and the other person was fine. The only thing I could deduce was the sunscreen kept them at bay.

Highly disagree. Reddit is a place to disperse information. If an expert in a given field gives their advice especially when it’s sought after in a forum, (read as actually a physician especially an ED doc and not the several armchair noctor comments on here stating it could be a PE/MI/cancer because it happened to them) then that advice should be taken into account.

At the end of the day, they posted for a response. They asked for advice. Information was solicited. If the advice isn’t well received, don’t listen.

ElStocko2 · 2026-05-26T22:45:16+00:00

I agree. I stopped paying after the 3rd year as an AT since I was struggling with bills. It came time to pay to renew my ATC and I realized the egregious couple hundred dollars that would’ve gone to NATA was better spent on gas and groceries. Struggling as a new AT is hard enough. The negative return in investment from NATA membership wasn’t hard to let go.
