Hugely important

2017-03-01 01:21:07 UTC

it totally is

2017-03-01 01:21:34 UTC

if I tell you a patient is hypertensive and diabetic and you think he's black but actually he's white, that changes everything

2017-03-01 01:21:47 UTC

I worked with one girl who actually specifies it down to nationality

2017-03-01 01:21:55 UTC

"65 year old polish male presents with..."

2017-03-01 01:21:56 UTC

kind of thing

2017-03-01 01:22:10 UTC

clever girl

2017-03-01 01:22:19 UTC

I first did that by accident when on knee jerk impulse I couldn't help but refer to a person as "italian" because I couldn't bring myself to call him "white"

2017-03-01 01:22:40 UTC

I don't see what the point of omitting the information could even conceivably be

2017-03-01 01:22:49 UTC

some bs about dignity

2017-03-01 01:22:50 UTC

being a politically correct retard

2017-03-01 01:23:15 UTC

once I am just a few steps further in my career I am going to openly call it retarded to let even a shred of political correctness bullshit get in the way of patient care

2017-03-01 01:23:24 UTC

Sure, but I'm interested in the motivation that culminates in that

2017-03-01 01:23:35 UTC

What these people are thinking to be PC retards

2017-03-01 01:23:37 UTC

I have seen trannies be written in the medical notes as the gender they are trying to be, not as their real gender

2017-03-01 01:23:47 UTC

I made a scene about it too with the other doctors

2017-03-01 01:24:05 UTC

In some sense, y'know, I think that's what they want

2017-03-01 01:24:08 UTC

"what the hell is this? that's a woman abusing testosterone, not a man! are you going to do surgery and find ovaries and not even know what you're dealing with?"

2017-03-01 01:24:20 UTC

To find a hill to die on, in this case it's a barren mons pubis

2017-03-01 01:24:41 UTC

"are you going to think that is a man with no penis and a randomly fucked up lipid profile, or realize it's a woman on anabolic steroids?"

2017-03-01 01:25:01 UTC

in my view doctors should be SCIENTISTS

2017-03-01 01:25:10 UTC

and there is no "believe" in science

2017-03-01 01:25:16 UTC

Yeah, I find it a bit ridiculous that they ask you which arm they're going to be operating on just to make sure (because based on precedent, otherwise someone gets a perfectly good arm cut the fuck up), but they're just okay with referring to someone as if they were the biologically opposite sex

2017-03-01 01:25:33 UTC

if the patient believes he's a woman, write "patient believes he is a female" in their psych history and move on

2017-03-01 01:25:43 UTC

yeah

2017-03-01 01:25:46 UTC

Or even the general notes if you're a fag apologist, sheesh

2017-03-01 01:25:57 UTC

now they consider "homosexual" derogatory

2017-03-01 01:26:01 UTC

have to say "men who have sex with men"

2017-03-01 01:26:09 UTC

when I am high enough up I am openly going to say "gay"

2017-03-01 01:26:15 UTC

"this is a 45 year old white gay male"

2017-03-01 01:26:23 UTC

Wordfilter AIDS to GRIDS

2017-03-01 01:26:39 UTC

dude you would not believe some people

2017-03-01 01:26:46 UTC

I have seen people whose blood is a bioweapon

2017-03-01 01:26:53 UTC

like I see their medical chart and want to call HAZMAT

2017-03-01 01:27:48 UTC

in those cases I just openly wear gloves and a mask to talk to them

2017-03-01 01:27:50 UTC

I don't give a fuck

2017-03-01 01:28:03 UTC

I am not getting creepy diseases from someone who is obviously positive for literally everything

2017-03-01 01:28:36 UTC

How do you mean?

2017-03-01 01:28:50 UTC

Like AIDS + other STDs?

2017-03-01 01:28:54 UTC

yes

2017-03-01 01:28:58 UTC

Or more immediately deadly non but fuk things

2017-03-01 01:29:07 UTC

HIV + hepatitis B/C/D + herpes + other stuff

2017-03-01 01:29:19 UTC

whoa

2017-03-01 01:29:34 UTC

JUST DIG THEM A GRAVE

2017-03-01 01:29:36 UTC

AT THAT POINT

2017-03-01 01:29:40 UTC

OR INCINERATE

2017-03-01 01:29:47 UTC

WHY ARE WE PAYING TO KEEP THEM ALIVE?

2017-03-01 01:30:13 UTC

what? no prozak, we can't do that, that would be inhumane! we have to use cutting edge technology to heroically save their lives on taxpayers' dime so they can go infect others for as many years as possible! It's their Human Right!

2017-03-01 01:30:33 UTC

WEED OUT THE WEAK

2017-03-01 01:30:46 UTC

THERE ARE TOO MANY HUMANS

2017-03-01 01:30:46 UTC

this isn't even weakness, it is immorality

2017-03-01 01:30:50 UTC

AND VERY FEW WHO CONTRIBUTE ANYTHING

2017-03-01 01:30:53 UTC

IMMORALITY IS WEAKNESS

2017-03-01 01:30:57 UTC

TO CONTINUE YOUR IDEA

2017-03-01 01:31:48 UTC

so obviously I cannot reveal patient info

2017-03-01 01:31:53 UTC

but one thing I will always remember

2017-03-01 01:31:58 UTC

this guy had BAD aids

2017-03-01 01:32:03 UTC

black, of course

2017-03-01 01:32:09 UTC

ever seen the super AIDS

2017-03-01 01:32:15 UTC

yeah nigga he had that

2017-03-01 01:32:21 UTC

multiple strain power chords

2017-03-01 01:32:36 UTC

like his AIDS had AIDS

2017-03-01 01:32:46 UTC

he had like 4 surviving white blood cells in his whole body

2017-03-01 01:33:04 UTC

so we got to trying to figure out why he had AIDS, tl,dr his life goal was to have sex with as many women as possible

2017-03-01 01:33:13 UTC

and after sleeping with 500+ he got aids

2017-03-01 01:33:19 UTC

never did anything for it, and now he's here

2017-03-01 01:33:29 UTC

hahahahaha shit

2017-03-01 01:33:43 UTC

so then he gets fungal pneumonia, deoxygenates badly, comes a hair's breadth from being intubated and sent to ICU

2017-03-01 01:33:58 UTC

was he diagnosed previously

2017-03-01 01:34:01 UTC

they figure out the bug and give him the appropriate drugs to fix it, and he goes from literal death's door to feeling okay in about 6 hours

2017-03-01 01:34:05 UTC

yeah he knew it, just didn't care

2017-03-01 01:34:10 UTC

.

2017-03-01 01:34:26 UTC

so like 6 hours go by and now the guy is breathing better because his lungs are no longer full of fungus

2017-03-01 01:34:34 UTC

and then he wants to sign out AMA

2017-03-01 01:34:56 UTC

he literally was walking up and down the halls saying "C'mon! Ah better now, look! Lemme out! Ah got wimmen to see!"

2017-03-01 01:35:08 UTC

he literally is a walking bioweapon

2017-03-01 01:35:19 UTC

he's like an ascended elder of dalits

2017-03-01 01:35:20 UTC

That whole obstinate yelling thing where they say everything at least twice

2017-03-01 01:35:35 UTC

That's fucked man

2017-03-01 01:35:43 UTC

How long ago was that?

2017-03-01 01:35:44 UTC

meanwhile I am the sort of person who gets angry if someone offers me a brownie

2017-03-01 01:35:54 UTC

yet I am here slaving away to keep him going

2017-03-01 01:35:56 UTC

How far into medicine were you at that point?

2017-03-01 01:36:03 UTC

this was a few months ago

2017-03-01 01:36:05 UTC

like 2-3

2017-03-01 01:36:08 UTC

ah okay

2017-03-01 01:36:31 UTC

that was the first time I asked myself, "wait, is all of this medical stuff even moral?" and decided I wanted to do gung ho preventive care

2017-03-01 01:36:39 UTC

How long had he had AIDS before he came to y'all?

2017-03-01 01:36:52 UTC

I think it was a year or two

2017-03-01 01:36:57 UTC

Ah okay

2017-03-01 01:37:02 UTC

it takes a while to get that bad

2017-03-01 01:37:12 UTC

medicine is leftoid to the point of ridiculous

2017-03-01 01:37:29 UTC

like fucking prep

2017-03-01 01:37:56 UTC

y'know

2017-03-01 01:37:58 UTC

in Melbourne

2017-03-01 01:38:06 UTC

a sign went up that said quite simply

2017-03-01 01:38:11 UTC

"PrEP means you can fuck raw"

2017-03-01 01:38:49 UTC

I think that is immoral

2017-03-01 01:38:51 UTC

that should not exist
