I know many of you have heard or read some like these…but here are some I haven’t seen before. The crazy thing about this list is that my wife has mentioned or told a story regarding most of every thing listed here. The fact that there is over 170 of them and someone not in the profession can relate or know of a bunch of these is even better.
- The front of you scrubs read: ‘Nurses…here to save your ass, not kiss it!’
- You occasionally park in the space with the ‘Physicians Only’ sign, and knock it over.
- You’ve ever told a patient to ‘move toward the light.’
- You believe that all the patient needs is some vitamin A (ativan)
- You’ve ever run out of linens, syringes, IV fluid, meds, and patience all at the same time
- You ever felt like a Gastroenterologist… because you work with a##holes
- It IS as BAD as you think, and the patients ARE out to get you
- You ever told a patient he didn’t need to be dead to donate an organ
- You feel that earth is the insane asylum for the universe
- You believe some patients are alive only because it’s illegal to kill them
- In a critical situation, the most highly qualified clinician will offer the most advice and the least support.
- You do the “only-27-more-minutes-of-the-shift-from-hell happy dance”
- When you need the money, your shift is cancelled; ….when you have a weekend planned, you have to do overtime.
- You believe sick people don’t $itch
- You believe the more equipment you see on a nurses belt, the newer they are.
- You believe when dealing with patients, supervisors, or citizens, if it felt good saying it, it was the wrong thing to say.
- You believe If the child is quiet, be scared.
- You always follow the rules, but be wise enough to forget them sometimes.
- You believe if the patient vomits in the ED, try to hold their head to the side of the stretcher with the disposable equipment, not the stuff you have to clean.
- You believe any family member who is more drunk (or more stupid) than the patient, is the real problem.
- You can’t cure stupid.
- You believe if it’s wet and sticky and not yours, leave it alone!
- You believe that idiots that get into car crashes are the first ones to complain how bumpy the ambulance ride is.
- You believe when a patient vomits, be sure to aim it at the family members who wouldn’t back up.
- You never trust crash cart, drug box or airway bag to be fully stocked. More >

Daily Pain

Posted by Daniel Clark in 6 - Painful
No surprise, yet another painful day. This time, my right arm from the elbow to the last joint in my finger are swollen and painful to move. Don’t get me wrong, all my joints hurt, just others way more painful then the rest. I am getting sick and tired of having to wake up like this. It really sucks not able to move in the morning when you first wake up especially if you have to take a piss. Standing up and taking a piss hurts my legs and arms to just stand there and seems like I have to stand there for ever to get done. I take my pain meds immediately but they don’t kick in for about an hour after I take them. So I sit or lay around in agony until they enter my system. Once that is complete, I can continue to get ready for work. I tell you, if it was not for Kim, I’d be dead and that no exaggeration. Also if it wasn’t for the Prozac, I would be totally insane. Every morning, the same bullshit, some days I just get so fucking pissed… but most of the time I can deal with it except those rare times it just gets to me. This is one of those days. I’m done venting now.

Every morning for the past few weeks, it has been very difficult to get mobile. My doctor even gave me higher doses of pain meds. I am back to the point where I can not put on my own socks with out being in a lot of pain due to my hands and ankles being so stiff and swollen. I am no longer on Embrel and can not afford any of the new meds for arthritis. I am just taking pain meds, anti-inflammatory meds and steroids along with Prozac for depression and pain. The pain that I feel now is normally reserved for the winter months.
My morning Pain Rating is about 6 or 7 on a scale of 1 to 10. Evening Pain is around 3 or 4 for the past few weeks. I don’t see this getting any better. This royally sucks.

Sick of this shit

I am so sick of this shit. Same bullshit everyday. Same pain every morning and night. So tired of having to take so many drugs to feel stoned and or high just to take the fucking edge off. Every morning, stiff (and I’m not talking about my cock), baby steps, feet dragging just to get to the kitchen to take my meds… Nightly, pain, can’t even fucking roll over in fucking bed with out fully waking up because the pain is to great it wakes me up to just move and that’s on a good night that I actually get some sleep…
Some have it worse and how they cope I don’t know. Thank god for the scientists that created Prozac and the cheap (legal) heroin that takes the edge off (sometimes)… I’m done venting.
