    Do You Let Students Buy You Stuff?

    I never ever expect to get special treatment or good marks just because I bring food for everyone at the station. If I did bring anything, it was always out of appreciation of their willingness to endure my fumbles as a student. Most of the time I brought my sack lunch with me. I have had...

    65yrs Female, Syncope & SOB

    Wow, that was a strange presentation. Kinda makes sense now that we have the answer. They teach us in class that the pulse ox is the key point for a possible pe. If you give o2 and do everything else and still no improvement in numbers, then good chance of a pe. Thanks for challenging us.:cool:
