Day… Day… Day… … 35M w/PMH of depression presents w/ a 19 day hx of going through hell. Found to be broken by COVID-19. Hospital course significant for bearing witness to many, many pts intubated and/or expired. Believes he brought comfort / humanity to some of his pts (results pending). Repeat rereading of his own story scared him. He started himself on comfort measures at home but was found to be… ... Let's start over. There once was a guy who lived for a fair amount of time but was still pretty new at it, all things considered. Let's call him Danny; he looks like a Danny. Like any guy with a couple letters after his name, Danny had a few issues with healthcare, which he fought each morning. And afternoon. And evening. And when he came home. It sounds like he lived a full(ish) life. We only really know that he was a DOCTOR and LIVES AT HOME. At least when he's not spending the majority of his waking hours in a hospital. He wrote a few things in the box that's supposed to summarize Danny's social life. He could have written more about it though, since his friends have kept him going through hell. He had a wife who is his emergency contact but who left him two days short of three months ago. There’s no box to check if they loved one another, but it’s probably a given that this theoretical box used to house a neat little checkmark inside. It used to at least. He didn't have any kids despite really wanting them, which hurt her and was one of the reasons the neat little checkmark went away. It really hurts when he looks at his chart under "Most Favorite Person in the World." Unlike other physicians, Danny never got used to people being sick, despite his whole working-at-a-hospital thing. He saw sick people sometimes, sure (that was the price of being a doctor) but as far back as 20 days ago he never saw anything like this. Twenty days ago he came to the hospital because he was scheduled to be the senior resident. He wasn't really sure he could do a good job at it, and the whole COVID plague really scared him. He got a whole room to himself to write his worries out and the history of each day. He barricaded himself in that room for hours and hours (when he wasn't responding to Rapids or Code Blues or talking to sick patients) because COVID took over his hospital. He prescribed the drugs he was told to by his bosses and listened to the President proclaim everything would be ok. He sure loathed seeing that orange loving prick on TV. On his third day in the hospital, he tried to do the right thing and limit suffering and protect the people around him. He offered his patient CHOICE and told the truth, even if afterwards it made him think he was a terrible person. Danny continued to prescribe medications and continued to . Sometimes he'd joke around with the very nice nurses and it helped him breathe better. Danny wasn't sure the medications were doing any good, but he was doing what smarter people well above him recommended. And he wasn't God, you know, despite his Messiah Complex. One day Danny came home after three weeks of working 7AM-7PM Sunday through Friday. But he took off the last day he was scheduled to be in the clinic because he couldn't take it anymore. He needed a break. And that was ok. Because he did break. Danny didn't do much of anything in particular. He watched Some Good News with John Krasinski which made him smile, he played Stellaris while listening to Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend which made him guffaw. Danny finished off the last pieces of donated food to the Heroes of the Hospital he had smuggled home. He still didn’t think he was a hero, but that's ok too. Danny hung out with his friends and gave spontaneous piggyback rides and laughed a lot even if he sorta fell straight on his face and got a small laceration to his left eyebrow. Which made him laugh harder. It was his Least Favorite Eyebrow, anyway, so who cares? Does it even matter? Danny didn't have to answer anyone's questions and stopped chart stalking the people he was taking care of. Because he finally realized he did his time. Danny wrote some more one afternoon and it made him happy. … … Maybe there's a book I could finish about this disaster so it could make some sort of sense now that it's passed. For me at least.

Pryor on Fire posted:There is currently a massive reproducibility crisis in medicine that questions whether science was ever being done that well with the peer review. yes this is what I was referring to with "most published research is false." Basically anything with an insufficient p value as a standard (aka. anything that isn't physics really) will skew towards false positives due to the way the process works, and further skew towards them because of pressure to publish. It's still the best way of 'knowing' available to us, though.

A couple days ago when this all hit me I was emphatically not ok, but I've made the healthy decision to take my scheduled vacation and not let myself be consumed by medicine for the next twelve days. Did I not finish with a positive ending here? It's why I used "laughed" like 4 times.

FAUXTON posted:Yeah it's probably way the hell different now but when I was growing up, the gulf coast armpit of FL still had a patch of largely unmanaged woods behind practically everyone's house, or at the end of the block. Not any huge forest reserve or anything but enough room to gently caress around with paintballs and not risk putting holes in anyone's patio screens. Just walking around with your friends in the woods was a thing, you'd find some old bottle on the ground and throw it at a tree until it broke or find and laugh at forest porn, etc. forest porn is one of the funniest pre-internet shared experiences and it seems to be almost exclusively an american thing

So we have the West Coast and New England (sans MA and ME...) deciding to act in union instead of taking direction from the federal government The critical thing to watch is if the Great Lakes (MN WI IL IN MI OH) decide to pull the same trick. If we get that then that's the flag to start the race
