Mom Quotes
1) An 18 year old female came in for constipation for 3 months
Me: "Have you seen your primary doctor for this?"
Patient: "I tried calling my pediatrician, but he won't see me anymore since I have a kid now."
2) Patient: "I am here because I think I am having a reaction to my sons bug bite."

These are the moments you sit back and think, "Is this REALLY my life?"
Sometimes, I am just gobsmacked at how dumb people can be.
i love the moms that are at the Er to comfort their 40 yr old daughter because she has a turd stuck in her butt. I swear some people have a massive case of the "dumb"
Patient #1 will have no evidence of constipation on an abd XR.
Patient #2 is obviously experiencing the same MRSA that her son is. Or is just f*cking crayzee.
In regards to constipation:
Eat Chipotle. Tastes good going down, clears you out in a few hours, and costs less than most OTC medications!
I'm sure someone else has a fast-food that "cures" their constipation...
Re Nurse K:
XRay for constipation. I dont do that. I just discharge them as I judge them in my head
ER Doc
Fast food constipation cure, a sack of White Castle burgers. They should sell adult diapers for the car ride home after that cuisine.
