Fireman Vs. Drug Seeker. Drug seeker calls ambulance.

[jaxrwld2]

And now I find out I have a brain tumor! Well, hell, it only took 3 years to become insured again!  By Medicare and Medicaid after I had to go on SSD!!

[jaxrwld2]

This is very accurate, but I have chronic muscle and nerve pain and this has happened to me SEVERAL TIMES in ER's. I was actually thrown out of an ER, AND the waiting area!!

Excruciating pain and thrown out on my ass!

Thank God the next ER had a physician who understood REAL pain!!

O.P.P., aka, "OTHER PEOPLE'S PAIN", IS NOT FUNNY!!

[animegirl101able]

@jaxrwld2 dude i know how you feel i have chronic side pain and have seizures and almost all the ers kicked me outt and told me i was a waste of their time and i had a real seizure

[Waltham1892]

Back when I was I was a cop, I had a much older partner who would carry around a role of nickels.

When ever anyone would give him the "I pay your salary" line, he would give them an on the spot refund.

You can pull that when you have your 20...

[Theredtail95]

And I was half expecting the guy to say, "A tictac".

[Theredtail95]

whats m.a.c.l.?

[ebneter]

@Theredtail95 NaCl: Table salt.

[Infamousperson00]

LMAO...That firetruck I paid for!!!

[tylerskiss]

@datzfast "stretcher bearer"? is that meant to be a slight? I'm an emt-- we do plenty to be proud of, so i see no shame in being a "stretcher bearer" as well. or maybe i'm just misunderstanding whay you are saying to me.

[datzfast]

fuck i would rather a doctor diagnose me rather than a boy that puts water on a fire.

[flarn1949]

scrote bag frineds??? LOL

[bradenwoodburnsucks]

HERE IS HOW TO RECOGNIZE A DRUG SEEKER, DO NOT BE CONNED!!!

-patient knows about their condition

-patient knows medications by name

-patient is dressed nice or dressed sloppy

-patient claims current pain rx is not helping

-patient claims to be in pain

-patient expects to be treated for their pain

-patient does not understand that opiates are the devil, and should be illegal

-patient can prove their condition, but chooses not to get invasive surgery instead of pain killers

-patient has a pulse

[AlcoFan2010]

What is MACL again?

[DonTheCritic]

@AlcoFan2010 NACL- Sodium Chloride (Salt pills)

[AlcoFan2010]

@DonTheCritic Thanks!

[DonTheCritic]

Pretty much every call I go on. Most of the calls are fakers trying to get a free ride to the hospital, and I didn't go through all that training to become a damn chauffer! I don't even know why I'm trying to do EMS anymore.

[datzfast]

@Don Critic so, you went to school to be a stretcher bearer? or are you hoping to be the driver some day? i think you made a poor decision from the get go dont you? search deep down for the answer, i hope your still a young man with time to make a change. all that fine training and really your the stretcher bearer. you couldnt look into the crystal ball and see that coming? dude you should be kicking someones ass over it.

[OneBQue]

LOL that is so true. I go on that so often. So when does a bum pay for taxes- only when he buys cigarettes and alcohol. Strong work.

[rorshachfan]

is Xtranormal dominated by cops, firefighters, doctors and other public safety officials?

[hokiemedic]

nacl. shit i give that all the time

[skybolter96]

So much bullshit. .45 ACP will cure the pain. This dude needs a double dose.

[medic9five]

Normalzaline....great drug

[mainmedic]

Ah Brings back happy memories from my EMS Days

[xxzorritoxx]

you were much easier to deal with last time when you were ODed, unconscious and barely breathing!!! i saved your life last month just so i can come back and deal with you again today! X-D

[MattyE1987]

Fucking Social Darwinism!

[cazhardcore5]

hey, its a lazy liberal

[tylerskiss]

what's worse is many of us are volunteer, so there is no "salary". A few nights ago we got a call for an 8-year-old with eye injury, only to get there and find a 15-year-old with dirt in his eye. Nothing serious. Family just called us because the next morning they were leaving for a vacation and they didn't want to have to wait at the ER. In other words- they thought we would get them in quicker is all.

[datzfast]

@tylerskiss stretcher bearer a little unhappy with that were you?

[DVDluvr123]

Give him a shot of obecalp!

[endorn24]

Reminds me of working in Pacu.

[SandraFowler]

Ahhh, this brings me back to my days working in the ER.

[TheBambulanceDriver]

A typical day in the life of EMS...

[Elizabeth1763]

How about flushing some normal saline in him? lol

[melovepie1]

eat it.

[firefighter1426]

God if only we could really say that to people like that.

[messymutt]

"That fire truck I paid for." I love that the fireman called him out after.

[medicmunoz]

hand out m&m's and make them sign off.

[warrior10002]

Sounds like he needs Narcan

[mmcaster]

"It's a 10"

[oldmill45]

right on HOP6236 i see this this shit all the time.

[VanNiedek]

"I am in pain..I am allergic to NSAIDs"

[10forswing]

nacl hahaha funny shit lol salt must relieve all the pain

[grettagrids]

NA CL??? he got some SALT LOL.

[rainfeathermedic]

lol I love that they know the protocals better then the medical directors!

[ticks4ticks4]

@rainfeathermedic Well, when you're in that much pain, your thinking is distorted, so of course you think you know the protocols better than the medical directors/professionals! Also, I guess that his "pain" was due to an ACUTE cause of...hyponatremia??

[cswithey]

@ticks4ticks4 Some drug seekers have been doing it so long they know what scale to say and how to describe it. 4 mg of morphine is acceptable in some departments, ours is 2mg at a time. They do it so often that they know what to expect and how to play the game at the hospital as well.

[bels10]

You forgot to mention that they always say they are nausious and need metoclopramide which boosts whatever they are on. Always a sign when you don;t come up with the goods

[QuestioningMySanity]

150 ug fentanyl? yeah...i bet

[Hop6236]

And this is why we should give free healthcare to everyone. So all these assholes can get their fix every day.

[il0vedillon]

They unfortunately already do :p

[ticks4ticks4]

@Hop6236 Exactly---and clog the ER waiting rooms even more!

[biddle44]

great vid
