n0ssb Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 You arrive on scene to find a patient. Chief Complaint : Not enough beer The patient is Male (So it seems ) He is 75 years old. The patient is Alert. Airway open Breathing labored Circulation: Skin is Warm, Moist, and Green :shock: The residence seems to be set up for some type of traditional festive event. What is going on with the patient? Anything you would like to know? Seems to be a problem of Very OLLLLLLLLLLLLLLD Age and Beer combine with possible dehydration effects--bathroom every 2 minutes to relieve self of added liquid content. No wonder the patient exhibits signs of Parkinson and Alzhiemers at times are consistent with this type of problem.. Treatment----Nursing Home-Ugly Nurses, No Beer Consumption allowed......

Mateo_1387 Posted September 12, 2008 Author Share Posted September 12, 2008 ...Gotta give me somethin to play with here. Hmmmmm, got me thinking long and hard Matty.... Ya'll get back on track ! Seems to be a problem of Very OLLLLLLLLLLLLLLD Age and Beer combine with possible dehydration effects--bathroom every 2 minutes to relieve self of added liquid content. No wonder the patient exhibits signs of Parkinson and Alzhiemers at times are consistent with this type of problem.. Treatment----Nursing Home-Ugly Nurses, No Beer Consumption allowed...... Ok....So we stuff his pipe with some green...put some gold/money on the card...give him some "mountain dew" to cure the symptoms...and after he gets to feeling good, we'll thrown in an ugly nurse to "take care" of him I think its the best birthday ever. (and if not, I'm stuffed if I know) Anyways, your patient lives for many more years. All is well....All you supermedics can return to your station !

Richard B the EMT Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Possibly unrelated, but, does the scenario take place on March 17th, or past midnight into March 18th? Hadda ask! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DwayneEMTP Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 So, pt is administered 10 oz of Tequilla PO which seems to calm him momentarily... As he rests you finally take a minute to review his past medical records..... HELL! Tequilla is know to cause altered mentation and paradoxical priapism in this pt!! What do you do? What do...you...do?? Dwayne (Happy birthday Ol' man!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
