More broken bones.

I haven't had this many 'You don't need a bloody xray' #'s in years.

77M - SOB, CRF, CA, IHD.
71F - Lung CA with multiple Mets c/o neck pain.
27M - One of the most intoxicated but still walking drunks I've seen. We're called for the lac on his face, found by security of a mall area just sitting there. Left hospital before seen by a Dr.
24M - Radius/Ulna #, midshaft and floppy before we got the splint on.
35F - Hypoglycaemia, no Hx has been eating, no eating disorders or known health problems apart from an IVDU habit.
70M - # NOF, diagnosed from the pelvic/hip exam because he was noe sitting on a bed so you couldn't see any shortening or rotation. Lets not talk about the advanced Parkinson's shakes making cannulation difficult and increasing movement and pain.




See you at the big One.
