    As a Paramedic, I had a unique peek behind THAT particular curtain. I arrived due to an acute case…read moreof food poisoning. It was bad. I was so badly dehydrated that nobody could find any veins to start an IV. They tried and finally got one. The staff was very friendly! Very courteous and professional. They did take very good care of me and by the time I was discharged, I was feeling much better. Once the ball was rolling, my care was more prompt but they were a little slow with the anti-nausea meds. I was on about my third vomiting episode while being there before the Zofran arrived. Not a moment too soon... I sounded like an angry seal the way my throat was raw from the puking and dry heaves. Two liters of saline and I did feel better. However.. one concern. They did send me for an ultrasound. After being wheeled through the hospital (those twists and turns do WONDERS if you're nauseated), get to ultrasound, get in the bed, confirm all your information.. I ask what they are ultrasounding? Gallbladder and possible stones? If you find any.. I call dibs on writing the paper! My gallbladder was removed 20 years ago! Needless to say, they were quite embarrassed. It was all good and we all had a good laugh about it. These people work hard, especially now, and deserve Kudo's. Thanks!

    I am at Forest General Hospital for over 9 hours. I am a double heart valve replacement patient and…read moream defibrillator dependant for my heart rate . After COVID I developed defibrillator symptoms in the ventricular side of my heart and they can not correct so I take a medicine Mexilletine to help. This last couple weeks I developed a terrible cough. I went to an urgent care for it it and got some relief so I bought Mucinex Dm Max and unknown to me the active ingredient dextromethorphan interacts in a potentially deadly manner. Increased Toxicity: Because mexiletine inhibits the metabolism of dextromethorphan, the latter can build up in the body. This can lead to increased side effects, including hallucinations, dissociation, and central nervous system (CNS) toxicity. Serotonin Syndrome Risk: Dextromethorphan is a serotonergic agent. If combined with other drugs that increase serotonin, or if it builds up due to decreased metabolism, it can cause serotonin syndrome, a potentially life-threatening condition characterized by high body temperature, agitation, tremors, and coma. Cardiovascular Effects: Mexiletine is used for arrhythmias, and increasing its toxicity by interfering with its metabolism (though usually caused by other drugs reducing its metabolism) could lead to serious arrhythmia or cardiac side effects and possible coma. Yet the ER doctor and nurses put us in the back waiting room for 9 hours now. When I described this to the nurse taking vitals, I got a I'm sorry. This is unexceptable care for anyone let alone a heart patient with potential life threatening issues. I came at 2 a.m in the morning and the took great care of me. I will reasses this after I am treated
