Damn, man. That sucks. I am glad you are okay, now. So, how many student nurses ended up being treated in the ER?

Demerol. I've had headaches that laughed at 200mg of Demerol. He couldn't give you a couple samples of Zomig or trex or something? Gheez! So, I take it you won't be calling him in the morning?

Thanks guys there were two student nurses and they did a pretty good job for looking like they were about to faint. (Forgive me a moment but even in my state I could still appreciate the fact one was some eye candy)

As for the Zomig and Trex issue I have been in the midst of one of those no matter what I take its not gonna work 100% so I've beenleft with these brutal shadows and he gave 10 100mg Demerol tabs and said take 1-2 for break through pain if the zomig isnt knocking it all the way down. Crazy thing is is that I have had IV Demerol plenty of times in ER or even in surgery without any issues but the generic tab must have something to it or in it that just says HEY wanna stop breathing? FUCK ME. So another one of my Doctor friends gave an Epi-Pen for in the future. Lets hope there isnt any more FUTURE episodes.

Oh well,

Thanks again guys and let there be pain free days ahead for us all!!!

You sure are stubborn... [smiley=laugh.gif]

Just FYI, I got in almost 2 weeks early by calling each day to check on cancellations.

If Cacioppo or Hetrick have an opening, get in asap.
If you get Cacioppo, send hugs and kisses and many thanks from Chris Stuckey!
