The existence of at least half of the cities in the U.S. is so archaic I don't get it. People live in the shittiest place with the worst weather because it was a mining town 100 years ago, military reasons, there was oil, or an industry at some point. Does no one stop and look around and wonder why the gently caress they haven't left? See: Detroit

And Phoenix
And the flyover states

And pretty much everything but the west coast

Kansas was P. Cool in a lot of ways.

I liked living in Manhattan, a small town of 42,000, and would easily move into the country 5-10 miles outside of some bigger city limit. Far away from the general population, but "going to town" isn't an all day affair.

People in general loving suck, being away from everything and having land where I can do whatever I want is my jam and my end goal in life.

Adverse effects[edit]
Adverse reactions to adrenaline include palpitations, tachycardia, arrhythmia, anxiety, panic attack, headache, tremor, hypertension, and acute pulmonary edema.[33]

Use is contraindicated in people on nonselective β-blockers, because severe hypertension and even cerebral hemorrhage may result.[34] Although commonly believed that administration of adrenaline may cause heart failure by constricting coronary arteries, this is not the case. Coronary arteries have only β2 receptors, which cause vasodilation in the presence of adrenaline.[35] Even so, administering high-dose adrenaline has not been definitively proven to improve survival or neurologic outcomes in adult victims of cardiac arrest.[36]

On the way to work today I saw the aftermath of a brand new Mustang ramming into the back of a parked city bus at 35+ mph and it put a smile on my face the entire day

Oh hell yes, story time.

So there's two forms of Epinepherine *lets call it epi* that we use, one is subcutaneous which is 1:1,000 ratio and intravenous which is a 1:10,000 ratio. I'm 99% certain the one's they give to soldiers is the 1:100 ratio.

we use the subq version for your alert, oriented people who are having anaphylatic shock syndromes, maybe someone who's blood pressure took a poo poo as well as heart rate, lots of things. you get the adrenaline feeling going, heart palpitations, nausea, supraventricular tachycardia *heart rate at like 220-230* but that's not super common, not with that version. It's like the most, crazy super hyped up version of some pre-workout you can think of.. but only lasts a few minutes at most.

The 1:10,000 is used for your code blue patients, it's part of the advanced cardiac life support rhythm, used in individuals who are in V-Fib, V- tach or asystole, and helps essentially kick start that heart into beating.


We had a nurse that took over a severe anaphylaxis patient after eating shrimp and was about 10 seconds away from getting a tube down his throat. The nurse thought she overheard "epi I.V" when it was "get me another I.V" So she, like the good nurse she was, gave a dose of epi to a conscious patient I.V

The patients heart rate was at 120, jumped up to 215, the guy literally projective vomited across the entire E.R bed, had a loving seizure and was throwing PVC's *premature contractions of the ventricles* near constantly, which means he was in something called bigeminy.

The dude's eyes looked like they were about to pop out of his head and he kept saying "im gonna die, oh my god, im gonna die," which Im sure was what it feels like when you get a 10,000 higher dose through the veins. The dude started changing random colors too, white, then red, then pink, then white, then red.. Holy gently caress everyone was freaking the gently caress out.

about 10 minutes later the dude was coming off his adrenaline high and was feeling better, because, you know, when you super dose someone with the med it usually works out... The kid was like 22 and was like "whoa that was intense.. lets do it again" kinda bullshit, so nobody got sued but he got a nice stay in the I.C.U that night.

She got written up, had to teach the entire hospital proper medication administration, and I think she had to do two days of orientation with our boss where the dude literally just walked around with her the entire time pretty much asking her questions about every single thing she did to ensure proper nursing safety and medication administration safety.

Those rings are Pussy+++. A buddy of mine's sister used hang out with Garret Heartley and he seemingly did not care too much about maintaining possesion of his SB ring beyond being able to stuff her.

It was kind of underwhelming seeing it without the actual team.

It was still a treat though :a2m:

I had one get pushed from 1700 to 2400 in 30 minute increments. It was agonizing.

Still doesn't top the time I waited 36 hours for a flight the airline never sent but forgot to cancel, and when asked for a refund they refused because "the flight arrived at its destination on time with 0 passengers aboard, and it's not our fault everyone was a no-show."
