Title: Funny AN trauma story
Post by: JHager on October 27, 2005, 10:55:15 am

Hey all!

My brother is doing his trauma rotation.  He recently had an AN patient come in - he'd fallen down some stairs and fractured his skull and arm. 

At first, everybody thought it was a post-surgery balance issue.  Until his toxicology screen came back...

He had in his system, at the time he fell, the following:

1) Lots of marijuana
2) Lots of meth
3) Lots of coke

Perhaps it wasn't the AN after all...  ;)

Wow!  And to think at my hospital they didn't give me giddyupangetim.  I wonder what hospital or insurance company he has that he gets those prescribed postop!  ::)
I prefer Pepsi, but that's just personal preference.  They sell meth in the local grocery store, but for "over the counter" it's somewhat less potent.  I think it's called "Crystal Lite".

Maybe his version of AN means Addictive Narcotics?

Thanks for the LAUGH!  I don't do that much these days, having been sick for 7 months.

That was a gREAT story!

 ;D Another funny story. I really do think we should have a daily dose of the John and Josh show. You two crack me up. I love the way you guys play off of each other.
