Miscellaneous Ramblings from an Emergency Physician in Texas.

So I gotta tell this story. Happened today. I’d been in Atrial Fibrillation for 3 days (again) and imagine your heart at 130-150bpm nonstop for all that time. Doesn’t hurt just not fun. I’m on the procedure bed and I’m breathing Sevofluorane while they're starting to give me Propofol and a hospital employee I’d not encountered before interrupted everyone to lean over me and say “your insurance company hasn’t preapproved this and the charge is Ten Thousand Dollars”. I kid you not. At that point I didn’t care and said ‘they can bill me’ and got my cardioversion. I’m fine, BTW, thanks. I’m going to think about this for a while. (FTR everyone else I interacted with was beyond terrific and it was smooth as silk).

@acnewsitics Imagine this being your scenario for a government worker who hasn't been to the office in what, 5 years? That person checked out years ago and has done only what's required to keep the checks coming.

@deaflibertarian This says nothing good about you. It's an engagement farming post and you should think again.

@UncleZoGunTales I have one now and dread taking it to the range. I'd sell it but my 'why you shouldn't buy this gun' in the ad would hopefully stop any buyers.

@bethanyshondark Monsters in the West try and hide their barbarism, I'm not prepared for monsters reveling in their horrific behavior.

@SomeWelder This was always the underlying motive with the UHC murderer support. Entice the mentally unstable to kill enemies of the left.

RT @ShamashAran: If I get kidnapped by a homicidal cult like Hamas, you have my permission to absolutely destroy them even if it means kill…
