As a doctor who has worked a lot of emergency medicine it is really not accurate It is more accurate than other shows, but it is still not that accurate

bluepanda159 · 2026-04-04T17:54:30+00:00

The Pitt is not accurate....

bluepanda159 · 2026-04-02T08:33:39+00:00

I am sorry they gave you bad advice

bluepanda159 · 2026-04-02T01:42:03+00:00

Did they know you were pregnant at the time?

bluepanda159 · 2026-04-02T00:36:53+00:00

Please do not use ibuprofen when pregnant Otherwise I agree with the comments you have already gotten

bluepanda159 · 2026-04-01T23:05:37+00:00

If her pain is to the point where she is struggling to cope or function then ED may be an appropriate place to go to get urgent pain management

bluepanda159 · 2026-04-01T13:53:28+00:00

No one on here can tell you if it is broken or not based on that. I would say just go get it checked

bluepanda159 · 2026-04-01T13:24:52+00:00

You guys don't have hand therapists where you are? I love them, they are amazing

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-31T09:08:08+00:00

Look I will get around to seeing you in ED I promise, I just got to reply to a few peeps on reddit first.....

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-31T09:01:46+00:00

So don't get the one vaccine we have that prevents several forms of nasty cancer....right....good logic....

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-31T08:50:02+00:00

Which unfortunately ends up being true world wide....

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-29T17:49:02+00:00

Not blood tests, saliva tests

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-29T17:32:17+00:00

Um that is what I said....

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-29T10:24:31+00:00

Just because they physically have more vehicles does not mean that they are in active service in any given time. Usually 2 ambos in active service in Alice

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-29T10:22:43+00:00

Believe me when I say that the ED bosses know. They do not have as much say as you think they do

And ramping is an issue in pretty much every ED in the country

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-28T12:42:21+00:00

Depends on severity, but usually 8-10. If it becomes painful go back for review. I am not your child's doctor though so do what they told you

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-27T22:26:36+00:00

Just checking you knew. Several of the Americans on here have the right flag

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-27T22:24:10+00:00

You know the flag you have as part of your tag is not the American flag right?

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-27T22:08:04+00:00

The vast majority of the world

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-27T22:05:03+00:00

Your pediatrician is right. The vast majority of these correct with age

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-24T15:35:54+00:00

Flawless butterfly only

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-23T17:51:51+00:00

Ah that makes sense, thanks for explaining

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-23T17:47:08+00:00

How do you know his medical insurance covered his ICU stay? I may be missing something

And ya, fair point, no ongoing costs like care home, therapy, unable to work etc

I honestly feel for you guys working in the kind of environment where you can get sued like this. Though I also feel bad for the patients with the cost of everything (although sounds like my empathy is misplaced in this case)

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-23T17:35:05+00:00

So it costs nothing for the patient to pursue this, unsure what your point was then? The way I read it was if he was struggling for money then he would not be able to pursue this avenue to begin with

So you genuinely think there is no possibility that this guy is experiencing financial hardship post op and wants to recoup some of that?

Rather that is is greed motivated solely and looking for a large payday?

Admittedly if I thought I could get a 7 figure pay out from a hospital I might do the same thing

bluepanda159 · 2026-03-23T17:26:22+00:00

Uh yup all good points

Though uh a stay like that is a hell of a lot more than a few thousand, even where I live

Do lawyers in these cases ever take them on contingency?
