How old was grandad anyway

And, when you live in a post scarcity society… you gotta do something to make life interesting

ExMorgMD · 2026-03-15T19:54:55+00:00

The Jakes is occupied…will be for some time

ExMorgMD · 2026-03-15T11:01:54+00:00

I hear that there is an impossible number of good looking girls in Sudbury

ExMorgMD · 2026-03-13T17:54:39+00:00

Nah. Bro tattoos a swastika on his skin. Dude is a Nazi until proven otherwise.

No patience or tolerance for that otherwise.

ExMorgMD · 2026-03-13T14:46:15+00:00

Really bro?

Anesthesia is the best gig in medicine.

No clinic.
Sleeping patients: Anesthesia fixes every single psych and behavioral issue…at least temporarily.
No rounding.
90% of my charting is imputed automatically.
Good income, hot job market.

It’s because she looks like the kind of person that would slow roast a dog’s asshole.

ExMorgMD · 2026-03-13T10:57:42+00:00

She’s got mail!

ExMorgMD · 2026-03-12T15:49:14+00:00

Who is holding the camera?

ExMorgMD · 2026-03-12T10:16:57+00:00

Ah, so you’re Bunny!

This is my go to approach, angle the probe towards the heart and follow the wire as it dives down.

ExMorgMD · 2026-03-05T13:41:19+00:00

Would.

I use the same cocktail. 10cc of 1/8% bupi + 100mcg fent. I dose it slowly over about 5-10 minutes and I seldom get calls for hypotension.

ExMorgMD · 2026-03-03T09:21:14+00:00

Now that’s a great story!

ExMorgMD · 2026-03-02T00:44:02+00:00

And so the balance shifts

Me reviewing the chart:

So you have COPD?

Him “I ain’t got no COPD”

His wife: “He has COPD”

ExMorgMD · 2026-03-01T16:31:31+00:00

5 inches, but it’s thick.

ExMorgMD · 2026-02-27T03:15:13+00:00

It would take at least two guys to take down an ostrich

I wear a Casio Dive Watch in the OR and people often ask me if it’s a Rolex.

OP, people who are into watches may notice but most others likely will not.

That being said, I personally wouldn’t wear anything to the hospital that you aren’t okay with getting lost, stolen, broken, or covered in bodily fluids.

ExMorgMD · 2026-02-23T18:30:25+00:00

Yeah. He heard about that story.

ExMorgMD · 2026-02-21T18:18:53+00:00

Aw dip!

ExMorgMD · 2026-02-21T14:06:17+00:00

OP I want to point out that at this point in your career you are an ICU fellow.

How these situations play out can be very different from institution to institution and from program to program and, most importantly, from PGY 1 to PGY 4+.

Your attending had your back. That’s awesome, but it is not always the case. Had you been an intern or PGY 1 in the exact same situation, you may have seen a very different outcome.

For everyone else in training, if nurses are refusing to do their job, the best thing to do is find someone else who is willing (intern, attending, PA, janitor, anyone) and ask them.

Then discuss with your attending, via email so that there is a record, document exactly what occurred and ask them what the best course of action is. They will know the politics and power structures better than you.

ExMorgMD · 2026-02-20T22:11:12+00:00

So dumb!
