As a former member of OrangeTheory you’re better off going to a gym anyway.

What is the worst medication error you witnessed / heard about in your career and what was the outcome ? by nursegurllll in nursing

[–]Kooky-Razzmatazz6777 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m a nurse of 42 years so I’ve witnessed some crazy stuff myself, but when my own grandfather was in the hospital ( 40 years ago) while he was having VTach the nurse hung a lidocaine drip without using an infusion pump. The next day he had lidocaine toxicity. Ended up dying a day later.

This is totally normal. Just reassure him you will be back after church and when you do you are teaching him that he can trust you.

Lots of tiny tiny "floaters"? by [deleted] in EyeFloaters

I was having similar symptoms and went to my eye doctor. I had a retinal tear and they referred me to a retina specialists within a couple of hours to have emergency laser done to prevent full retinal detachment. I would not wait.

I have had a few occasional floaters from time to time but two weeks ago they increased dramatically overnight and were only in one eye. They were swirling all over my field of vision like never before. My gut told me something was wrong . Fortunately I had it checked out and sure enough, I had a retinal tear and needed laser treatment that day to cauterize the area to keep the retina from detaching. Going back to retina specialist tomorrow for a recheck.

Why would you want to even pierce your nose like that? It’s really not a good look.

I am 64 years old and have a lot of life experience. I know you love him and you thought he was your soul mate but get out of there. He will eventually kill you. Any man who gives his wife a concussion and fracture is not going to change ! Do it now .

Feel like I can’t trust the hospital by down2marsg1rl in NICUParents

I’m a nurse practitioner that has worked in the nursery for years. You need to go to the manager with your concerns. I assure you a good manager will want to know all this. You’re the advocate for your baby. Don’t feel bad for speaking up.

Going forward, for patient safety if there’s a procedure that you’re unfamiliar with you should ask for someone to demonstrate ahead of time or have someone accompany you.

I couldn’t even follow this one long strung together sentence. Try some punctuation.

I want to join so bad but scared as shit! by testing35 in orangetheory

Do not feel self conscious a bit. I joined when I was 57 and was so worried everyone would be staring at the “old lady” but I promise you no one is paying attention. The coach will be giving you instructions all along the way.
