I hate the FL DOH. Taking the state exam for my medic has been an awful experience. It's frustrating the hell out of me.

What's wrong with their EKG?

Pericarditis.

She is 250#, IDDM, been having chest pain for 3 weeks. Her mom just now "believed" her.
 
That sucks. The EKG doesn't really strike me as pericarditis. It looks more like benign early repolarization to me.

well i suck at reading ekgs then....pericarditis how?

Diffuse elevation. Mainly in the precordials.

I would agree with the repolarization, but coupled with her signs and symptoms and other clinical findings.

We took her to the speciality Children's hospital to see a cardiologist.

Edit: this was an IFT by the way

I liked the repost of the story about Fort Collins Colorado putting bike racks on the ambulance. I did not like the comments. Instead of real exercise, I like to get in internet fights to get my pulse up.

I just like to see PVH EMS getting some visibility. They do some really great work and I learned a lot there. They've had bike racks on the field supervisor ambulance for a long time, but I'm sure it got pretty tiresome to have the supe come out to transport every single bike from accidents (seriously, all the time in FoCo).
 
Mix a Sandy dirt road with whoops and that makes for a very bumpy ride in the ambulance. I didn't want to slow down at all since our units are only 2 wheel drive

Negative. 56's area (sky valley) so pretty much DHS.
