#6 Police Abuse Disabled Woman - EMT ignorance Cop ridicule

Please watch Abuse Videos #1 through 5 first.
This is Video 6 - The next set of EMTs (FDNY EMT) don't know what Myasthenia Gravis is either, and are also in no rush to provide me Emergency Medical Care. The 49th Precinct Bronx cops still refuse me medical care, continue ridiculing me, and continue to ignore legitimate harassment complaints, allowing 1F to participate & photograph me.
It's worse...
Please watch these in #order. It's not over yet...see abuse video #7

After years of appreciating the emergency services, I am traumatized! This can not happen again...these professionals may kill a disabled person, expecially a Myasthenic.
To all of the dedicated emergency workers out there, I wish you had been here and I am sure you agree...this should not happen again!

June is MG awareness month!

As a fellow myasthenic, i'm annoyed to read some of the ignorant comments on here. I had to suffer with the condition for some time while everyone, including doctors, thought it was psychosomatic. it wasn't until my highly positive blood test and positive double blind tensilon test came back that everyone had egg on their faces, and the neurologist wondered how i was still able to get out of bed. only just i can tell you!

[degradedmyasthenic]

Hi. I had similar circumstance. It is frustrating that people don't understand and choose to remain ignorant about MG symptoms.

[nyc14gauge]

degraded, let me ask you, honestly, how many times a month do you call 911?

[degradedmyasthenic]

for my disease - NEVER! This was my first 911call because of MG symtpoms/for an ambulance.

[nyc14gauge]

So you routinely place "spy cams" in your apartment? How long did it take you to set up the whole operation prior to placing a 911 call for your "life threatening illness". All I can say is wow, you have some major foresight skills if you just happened to be rigging your apartment for A/V surveillance and then out of the blue was struck by a sudden life threatening illness. Calling 911 so you can make a point is not cool.

[degradedmyasthenic]

You are very cynical, I'm sorry, you must be miserable. The camera was put up by my neighbors in 2R & I because my nasty neighbors in 1f have wild drug parties in the hall, lock us upstairs, threaten us, pee on doors etc. we were afraid, the weekend before was hell in this building, us trapped upstairs while crzy things go on downstairs. you need to watch a nasty neighbor video & tell me you'd feel safe in a building where there are no locks, intercom,& druggies in hallway blocking your exit.

What were you arrested for anyways, Just because these emts and police acted in this manner, No one should allow this video to affect their thoughts or view of EMS professionals around the country, Just like any other job you have your good workers and you have your bad. I am so sorry this happened to you but all EMS workers are not like that

[bunnigrrl08]

people downplay the seriousness of MG, because its sufferers are rarely in wheelchairs and with medication, can often lead pretty normal lives. doesn't mean it can't end up in myasthenic crisis or flare up from time to time.

mestinon is a wonderful thing though.

[bunnigrrl08]

hi degradedmyasthenic. i've watched most of your videos in the series, and sorry to see your neighbours, and the police of all people, have been treating you so badly. i hope you can move ASAP, and get some legal recourse for the police and their negligence. perhaps a tidy settlement from the 49th precinct would help set you up in better accommodation..

[STRONGMAN415]

Sorry for the typos my point if you ever have been put through the system which I feel everyone in life should your perspective changes.Agian to get arrested for unmarked generic Motrin by an overzealous officer who thinks he has a drug bust put in a cell with the real animals for 3 days to see a judge only too say SORRY.Some times sorry is not good enough your treated like a damn animal all due to a officers stupid judgement.

[STRONGMAN415]

Who hasnt had an injury that set us back in life.But if you ever been arrested by an overzealous officer for an expired drivers license by 3 days or an unmarked bottle of generic MOTRIN yes it has happned to me.And once your cuffed you treated like every other criminal.And to wait in a cell once for 3 days to see a judge to to it was a holiday your perspective of police COs and the whols system changes.

So maybe you should like... move?
