Paramedic Engine arrives before us. Pt. states he has LLQ abd. pain 10/10 sharp. Vitals were pulse 30, BP 170/110, O2 sat 96. Pt. stated no prior medical problems, not taking any meds. Transported priority 2, upgraded by ALS engine medic. Enroute, medic started the patient on a bag of normal saline and placed pt. on lifepak. While transferring to hospital staff, he begun to vomit again.
What do you guys think this might be? We are thinking it was either a aortic aneurysm or bad kidney stones.
