I love how we're all second guessing an ER doc. -- nm - loosilu Dec 8, 10:25 12
- I'm going on the information provided. They assumed a condition over patient denials and patient suffered needlessly. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 8, 10:26 11
  - it's completely effed up. -- nm - kare Dec 8, 10:29
  - and if that happens all the time, then what? -- nm - loosilu Dec 8, 10:28 9
    - i have a hard time believing that someone completely ill from drinking too much the night before isn't going to admit to it. -- nm - kare Dec 8, 10:29 8
      - (well, i'm sure some may lie, but a regular occurence? really? also, if they lie, rule it out. you know?) -- nm - kare Dec 8, 10:31 4

        how did you get from "i can't believe we're questioning an ER doc" to "Fictional TV Character would say..." ? -- nm - kare Dec 8, 10:34 2
        
        "Fictional jackass tv character", you mean. At least he has the jackass part in common with some real docs. :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 8, 10:36
        
        I don't think I switched arguments at all... - loosilu Dec 8, 10:35
      - is that even a usual presentation of a stroke? and how often do you see a stroke in a young person? - loosilu Dec 8, 10:30 2
        
        well, yes. my friend's story was how i knew my mom was having a stroke. -- nm - kare Dec 8, 10:32 1
