All good!
Bad abdominal pain that had me in tears, came in after 4 days in tears. Neg labs and CT.
Friendly reminder we can’t always find out what’s going on in the ER, but we’re really good at figuring out if you’re safe to go home.
Definitely stealing some socks
Still breathing! Abdominal pain I tried to ignore. Probably not pregnant. Will update when I have updates
Thanks for the love, friends!
Even doctors get to be patients sometimes

Don’t worry, Buffy has proven she is capable of coming back from the dead
Because they’re going to bring back Firefly and Angel instead 🤞
This is a very LA story
Nice!
Remember, even doctors are patients
Even though I know more behind the scenes shortcuts than the average bear, I still get stymied at the pharmacy as a patient because of the fucking nonsense that is “prior authorization”
As if a prescription isn’t authorization enough

That last sentence sums up much more than writing rules
Me: this girl scout project is about empathy. do you know what empathy means?
7: no one cares, dad
Me: …
I feel seen
Everywhere
Freakin hate sand
I want this on a tshirt
Cant tell, is the one on the left barefoot? Would be a cool tweak if your SIL made the image
I mean, ACEP had a chance to make EM look like leaders at the front lines during the start of the pandemic, but it took them like 6 months to even acknowledge COVID in Annals. Their playbook came out a year in while NEJM took point.
Late to the show on everything, @acepnation.bsky.social
To the surprise of no one, excited delirium is referred to multiple times in the official DHS medical protocols
… and that incantation, the deep ones listened and opened a portal to an evil hell dimension through which unspeakable horrors descended upon the Emergency Department
Just realized that due to the mystical combination of Julius Caesar and the astrological turning of the spheres, a Friday 13 in February means there will ALSO be a Friday 13 in March…
So instead you decided to make me beg for the full to piss me off?
@$$hole
I think you only sent me a scene or two if you want to shoot over the full!
Last night, I took care of an amazing deaf man who could only read lips “because I went to Woodstock”
As I worked on his ingrown toenail, he proceeded to recount the entire Woodstock lineup in order and where he was during each set
Most awesomest patient encounter of all time ever.

Quick Shot: DERMAL PIERCINGS
You know you can’t have any metal when you use an MRI, otherwise they become dangerous projectiles…
Those dermal piercings will literally need to be cut out of your character’s skin with a scalpel.
So many plot possibilities

Really wish the world was more boring about now
Dear World,
I’m sorry we suck.
We used to be awesome. We used to stand for something. But 250 years later, we put another petty king in power.
Make your voices loud and boycott the Olympics and World Cup here.
I hope one day you can forgive us. We will be better.
With love,
The American People
God bless nursing home staff. They have a tough job with difficult patients and they’re not paid newrly enough for it.
But BEWARE to the public: if you can’t find much info on Google, chances are that nursing home just changed their name because of a bunch of terrible reviews.
Happens all the time
Dont worry, it wont happen. That’s exactly why we have the NRA, to rise up against tyranny and blah blah blah….
