Ugh. Had to babysit another one last night who decided to take a header when he fell asleep pushing his shopping cart.

Concussion...or just high?

Closed skull fracture...or just high?

Haha. I remember doing that. And because you are the only medical professional in the joint, they all come running to you like you can diagnose an MI or something.

For me, it was always patients having seizures.

OMG.

Subdural hematoma...or opiate intoxication?

Overdose...or just tired?

*shakes junkie* "Sir, are you alright?" *junkie lifts head up slowly* "Yeah man, I'm cool. Didn't get any sleep last night."
