Hey are any of my Nurse Buddies online?
@MrGoat I'm in need of a medical backstop. I am concerned about my friend.
@NiveusLepus Wouldn't you be able to get one from the doc they had the proc done at? =/
@MrGoat Im concerned that they might need to go to the ER, but they are being a bit stubborn about it (their prerogative mind you) And I'm trying to back up my opinion.
@NiveusLepus You can get EMT to come check on them? Might be a lil wait as non-emergency.. .. if it's rather serious I'd say ambulance for an unwilling to go if you drive them =/
@MrGoat They are right at the threshold of hypertensive crisis. Within 7 points of it.
@NiveusLepus Call ambulance is my suggestion. That can lead to heart attack. Wish your friend well. <3
@MrGoat Thank you noble goat
@NiveusLepus
What are the numbers?
@Vozy 173/113 to close to the danger zone for my taste.
That said everything seems ok for the moment.
@NiveusLepus
I agree. I don't know their medical history, but that's an ER visit for sure. High blood pressure is a silent killer.
Even if it's normal now, that's at
an urgent visit to their doctor. IMHO.
@Vozy His argument is that they know about it and he has an appointment on the 14th.
*grumble*
@NiveusLepus
Carol said, "Ask them if they have a Health Care Proxy and a Living Will?". 😕
@Vozy Yeah, exactly.
@NiveusLepus Doctor Strange Hoof is here.
