I'll tell you what's weird as hell here is the cafeteria menu. I thought hospitals didn't serve **** which causes the things they treat here in the cardiac imu ward.



Biscuits & sausage gravy? Pizza? French fries? Bbq? It just keeps going...
My wife used to work at a large hospital and from what she says, its all about the patient care numbers these days. All they care about is your after survey, so they'll do a lot of things to make your experience better. The surveys drive their rankings and that is what determines income (directly and indirectly)

The puns in this thread are about the only thing keeping me sane right now. Thanks, all.

I still have a boost leak. Can hear the air passing through my lung and then bubbling through the catch tank. Apparently I have to sit and be bored for several more days before they'll go in and staple it.

But on the plus side, got the COBRA situation worked out finally.

A few more days, probably. Still leaking.

Not too many cute nurses in this one, sadly.


I found out that I have a displacement of almost exactly 2.5 litres.

Glad you have some friends on the internet to tell you to go to the hospital. Pretty much anyone you've seen since first feeling shitty is a dick.

Not too many cute nurses so they bring you a ***** pump?

Not sure if that means your insurance is better or worse than mine.

Well, I really didn't tell anyone in real life, and am pretty good at masking pain. I tend to be kind of private about things like how I'm feeling.

No idea. Seems like pleurodesis is more common than staples these days, but neither has been mentioned in my case. We're just sitting here going super slow and conservative.

And blowin' bubbles through the side of my chest.

I'll donate $5 to get this to Joe tomorrow:

Amazon Amazon





It must be hooked into his breathing tube so it will register boost and vacuum of Joe.

Haha.

Sadly, we're dealing with much lower pressure differentials than a gauge like that will register. I'd need a magnehelic.
