Was it wrong?

I just saw a teenaged boy for a high fever. He was whimpering althrough the visit. His mother said her daughter was just seen for the same thing and was given a shot that made her feel better very fast. The boy started crying I don't want a shot. I asked the mother if she wanted him to have that, said I could give him pills. She wanted the shot. So I ordered it and some oral meds. You should have heard this teenaged boy cry. Sheesh. It only made me not want to suggest oral meds. He lived. Was I being bad to him?

I'D SAY NO
kids are wimps today
but then again ya never know maybe he was abused with needles.

there are grown men that i know that are deathly afraid of taking the needle. we have to have blood drawn to check for cholesterol and all the other stuff for insurance at my work. if you don't have it drawn you pay more premium money for the insurance. they elect to pay more.

THIS FRIGGING SOCIETY GIVES ME A HEAD ACHE.

we think our politicians are adult fathers looking after us, which is a sick thing.

they want money and daddy us to get their way.

BUT DOCTORS are maybe the last group you can trust in this country, they have let insurance perverts wag the whole medicine show, but most still know their stuff.

I told a doc once a Adrenalin shot would just make me pass out and not stop my hives.

he gave me the shot, i fell on the floor in his waiting room, I passed out.

But i am a rare patient, I know me a little, I am atopic.....most incest victims in what is termed "co morbidity" like to play and pretend they know medicine better then doctors, many kill themselves doing strange crap and eating strange crap.

In my kitchen right now i have a pile of Glutton free deserts that taste like crap, the cook eats them because she will not go into therapy, this keeps her in a state of high stress, as a result she does not make enough mucus to line her stomac, so she has intestinal leakage and gets skin bumps from white bread,if she went into recovery, took a zannex once in a while, her stomach would get right and the bumps would stop, but she won't.

Instead she starts to sneeze so she will make more mucus to protect her stomach when she eats, so she takes a "nose Dryer" pill, this makes even her stomach start making even less mucus, so she gets even sicker and brakes out even more a day latter after eating a refined food of some sort cause her intestines leak even more.

But boy does she have a convincing storie that surprises the doctor for the big words she uses-----------ALL OF WHICH MEAN NOTHING.

After guys like me a few times and girls like her a few times most doctors want to listen to the patient, but never are sure how much, if the kid died from the shot Doug would get a life effecting law suite.

Cause of what the kid said doug was forced to give him a pill.

THIS IS THE WORLD OF MEDICINE, PLEASE EVERY BODY SEND DOUG YOUR PRAYERS FOR DIVINE GUIDANCE DEALING WITH ALL THIS CRAP

MEAN WHILE ANYBODY KNOW WHY MY LIGHTS DIM?

some drs. suck. i found a terrific one.

i would have ordered a swift kick in the ass with the shot if he whined like that when he was in my treatment room
but then again thats the army medic in me speaking

the only good thing i can say from your ordeal is at least the mother didnt give in to the kid

[Rebel]

I think I was not understood correctly, he got the shot and the pills.


Terra,
I understand a person not reacting to a shot in the manner they are supposed to. It has happened to me. I have had to go to the ER a few times because of a heart rhythm I would go into, it has been I think eight years since the last time. Three times they gave me an I.V. drug that stops the heart for a few seconds so that it will reset itself. Let me tell you, having your heart stopped does not feel good. Twice they did a second dose on me, none of the doses worked and they had to resort to older medications to calm the heart down. I tried to explain to the doctor each time that the drug does not work on me, they just knew it would so they insisted on trying it. After all the patient does not know anything, right.

[jmkjr72]

That is why im glad to have the dr i do
He is an ex navy corpsman and under stands where im coming from
Whats worse then a dr not listing to a patient is the ins company saying you have to use the treatnment that doesnt first work first because the one that does isnt covered

Yup...

Taking that needle gets to 'em every time... They whimper and fuss from the time they get strapped to the gurney, putting on a show for the executioner and the witnesses. Happens all the time at Huntsville...

OCG, the stuff you're talking about is going in, the stuff i'm talking about is coming out. the only thing in common is the needle.
