Be me
This is a rare pasta
Oh, I get it. Slidding.
You got to have more than one story
The faggotry is very subtle
Is this Dr Andy sixx...the log doctor
Dumb ass.
Cool pasta, the stock photo kind of gives you away though.
>ducking sewer
Phone fag, commit kys
Shitman
Nice try. Lrn2medicalterminology faggot
>>pulse ox
It's Blood 02 saturation
Getting smarter with these i see.
I know theres no such thing as doctors on Yea Forums.
How hard is it to tracheotomy a choking victim? Will a pocket knife and emptied ball point pin really work?
damn almost got me with this one, i do apprecitate the dedication for the log post
He also didn’t page pulm/CC for bronchoscopy/lavage or get an ID consult for antibiotic selection (though clinda/zosyn isn’t the world’s worst choice).
How often are you going to post this?
Log posters get no respect, but it's Yea Forums's only OC as sad as that is.
Pre-med is a bad major choice lad.
10/10
This shitpost is like a fine wine with it's subtleties and exotic flavors of faggotry sprinkled throughout. Even the ems shit is on point.
Got me.
Anybody else in this thread cos they thought they saw E.T in the x-ray?
This is the greatest logpost of our generation
yea it sucks, but you didnt fall for it?
Damnit...got me..
>The most creative log thread to date.
Andy Sixx meme has hit new levels it seems...
Fuuuuck you got me, well fucking played OP
Why x-ray, what's the point of seeing the bones?
A straw would work too, but cutting is risky since you're not only cutting the skin and trach, but you also risk cutting vocal cords if you don't know where to cut.
i think to see the throat blockage?
if he has shit in his throat he doesnt deserve to speak again
Well played, logposter
That makes sense, since it only shows bones and metal items. Shit in throat will surely show up aswell since its made of metal and bone.
It would make sense if you’re looking for an unknown foreign object. And if this wasn’t a logpost.
