A 26-year-old dental student in Connecticut died in an intensive care unit that was overseen by a remote "tele-health" doctor who pronounced him dead on a video screen, a lawsuit says.
I am getting fucked tho, but it’s not the NP’s fault. It’s the goddamn admins that decided patients should only get fifteen minutes for a yearly physical, including pap smear.
They’ve turned primary care into a referral machine, but there’s nobody to coordinate care or collate results. I’ve got a stack of diagnoses from multiple specialists, but they give out conflicting advice. Like, I’ve got an EDS diagnosis from a rheumatologist who told me to take ibuprofen for my joint pain because tylenol doesn’t help with inflammation, but I’ve also got intestinal ulcers that my gastroenterologist says comes from taking NSAIDs, and I should take tylenol instead. Fucking kill me.
Neither of them was wrong, really. The best option was ibuprofen, since it’s pain relief and anti-inflammatory. But because you developed ulcers that ibuprofen can irritate, the best option is just pain management with something like Tylenol.
Also, you can hop right on the mayo clinics website and look up eds. Go to treatments and look right there. IBUPROFEN. Not everything is rocket science. You just can’t be too stupid. It’s also blasted all over the rest of the internet, but the mayo clinic is one of the most trusted sources around.
go ahead and look up gastro disease. nsaids are contraindicated for all of them. use cleveland clinic since they are better than mayo for anything GI.
if you are wondering how i know you’re not in medicine, it’s the fact that you didn’t know the above fact. or, if you are in medicine, you really should find some other field. fucking 80% of practitioners are idiots anyways.
You consider that you may be getting fucked, then?
The best experience I’ve had with a family practice doctor was the few years that I had a nurse practitioner, much more thorough and attentive.

That’s insane, a fifteen minute visit is a joke.

I mean the answers are out there but they include ridiculously expensive biologics that no insurance wants to cover.
No, the rheumatologist should have known that nsaids cause gastro ulcers and not to prescribe them. They committed malpractice.
Lol. You fucking idiot, it doesn’t do that to everyone. “Malpractice for prescribing ibuprofen” hahaha
And this is why you’re not in medicine.
How do you know I’m not ;-)
