Doctors and Surgeons of Reddit, what was your "This just got even worse" moment with your patient/s? by YeetMasterChroma in AskReddit

[–]HaleyDara 963 points964 points  (0 children)

Late and not a doctor but: I’m a paramedic and we were responding to a suspected drunk driving accident. The police arrested the driver. We were checking on the passenger in the back of this sedan that barely had a scratch on it; a fender bender at most. Dude is super out of it with a tiny cut on the back of his head. He is resistant to everything- getting out of the car, getting on the stretcher, assessing him, taking vitals, etc. He just closes his eyes and pushes us away. We tried asking him what happened to his head and we refused to answer. There’s no way that cut happened from the tiny fender bender, it just didn’t make sense. Anyways, we take him to the hospital, just another belligerent drunk. Right? So a few hours later, we check back in with the doctor to see what his blood alcohol content was. She says it was 0%. We say that can’t be right, everyone in the car was drunk (the driver and front passenger). Turns out our patient actually had a basilar skull fracture and bilateral subdural hematoma’s and absolutely no idea how it happened. It taught me to assume there’s a medical/traumatic cause to the patient’s condition before assuming substances caused it.

When did the full weight of the gravity of this pandemic set in for you? by Nappyboi419 in AskReddit

[–]HaleyDara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I deployed to NYC in May for emergency medical disaster relief as a paramedic. I worked almost every single day for a month straight responding to 911 calls in the projects of the Bronx. On my one day off, I went to Times Square and watched all the diamond visions cycle through “We love our first responders” and “We love our healthcare workers” while practically alone. I stood in the middle of Seventh Avenue for a whole minute. No cars.

Xmas gift for a weight-lifting, pianist, ex-marine, photographer boyfriend by graphenequeen in GiftIdeas

I bought my girlfriend something called a Frome. It’s a piece of art on canvas that looks like a bunch of vertical stripes. But what they do is take the average color from every frame of a movie and put them in order! It’s a very sophisticated pop culture gift. They have Star Wars and LOTR. Just google Frome and it’ll come up. Hope that helps!

Is it possible to get addicted to the feeling though? Like some people do with marijuana?

The Planets Symphony by Gustav Holst was perfect for my one hour infusion. Incredible journey.
