Radioactive Isotope 29 Posted January 26, 2008 poor Ana. *hugs* we had a lady come in for a dobutamine stress test (dobutamine speeds up your heart) the other day and her BP bottomed out twice. within about 20 seconds her HR went from 120-something to 91 which was when i walked out of the room to check on other patients. i always miss the exciting stuff.....so they stopped the dobutamine to get her heart back to normal, pushed fluids, and then she bottomed out again. needless to say, we couldn't finish the test and had to send her straight over for a heart cath.

Pandora 77 Posted February 1, 2008 I bet the roads suck tomorrow. But alas, I work for Macy's. The friggin hospital will be closed and we'll still be open. And all the other store managers in the mall will be calling ours crying, "PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CLOSE!!! NO ONE ELSE CAN CLOSE UNTIL YOU DO!!!!!"

Princess 35 Posted February 1, 2008 A-yup, the roads suck. I was basically standing on my anti-lock breaks and still slid through an intersection Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Radioactive Isotope 29 Posted February 1, 2008 roads here were fine. the temperature didn't drop below freezing like they were predicting. the wind was bad, though. i almost lost control of my car a couple times on the interstate because of the wind.

Here's have some party mix. *hands her a bowl of pills* That should make you feel better. Or at least not make you care. Who knows? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Radioactive Isotope 29 Posted February 5, 2008 any Percocet in there? *rummages* i need to knock myself out for a couple hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandora 77 Posted February 5, 2008 Probably. There's good old fashioned vicoden in there too. *stops JM when she picks up two identical pills* If you take those with alcohol, you WILL turn into the kid from the Exorcist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted February 5, 2008 *hugs Pod* Thank you! After having a fever for 2 days and going through half a box of kleenex, I appreciate it. And Mara, they're awesome live. The acrobatics that they did on stage just blew my mind. Doing flops over the keyboard and throwing around a drum, it was amazing. It was too bad that they only played 4 songs before Alanis came on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandora 77 Posted February 6, 2008 *Absently rummages through the bowl of pills* Never heard of them. Ooh, here's a pretty one. *pops it into her mouth and washes it down with a swig of beer.* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
