Dear blue byte please let me access your fucking easter event at settlers online now that you FINALLY fixed it. PLZ. I'm begging.
BEHOLD THE FRUIT OF MY LABOUR!! (mass effect crack, it's been literal years since my last fic publishing oh god????)
i jsut watched Thane's romance route on youtube because apparently i like suffering can i just say: Hey Bioware, turn on your location I just wanna talk emotionally devastated by a fucking video game. I even knew it was coming. And yet. Here I am. That fucking convo before the Normandy takes off again, at the end of the Citadel DLC. Ow My Heart.
*to the tune of 'i shot the Sheriff'* I shot the surgeon... But i did not shoot the Internist Mostly because the internists don't deserve being shot, while the surgeons can be wholesale transferred to the trash can Like: Patient, two Weeks out of her last chemo. Blood values are expected to be bad, but today clocked in as: HB:6.6; platalets: 14k, leukocytes:1.6k They should be: HB >10; platalets: >100 and leukocytes above 2 please Like, those are some bad bad values, so i started hunting down the responsible doc (took me 4 calls...) who told me he'd talk it through with his superior and then call back, which naturally never happened. So i hunted him down AGAIN only to be told that they're 'not doing anything with the Patient today anymore, and the blood was likely dilluted from an Infusion' But do i get a control? Fucking nope. Now i gotta sit here all night, praying to the gods of poor overworked lab techs, that the Patient won't start bleeding because then i gotta fucking hurry to provude blood units and probably beg the red cross for platalet units, which will take at least an hour to get here. Because the mcfucking surgeons don't wanna draw another vial today for a control OR a preemptive crossing. Just. God. They're all useless swamp gremlins!!
And the best thing? The Patient is AB+. I could literally funnel the complete content of our blood fridge, plus 7 boxes of plasma into her! If only the surgeons could cooperate and give a freaking sample to officially cross with
Oh yeah, surgeons can be fuckheads. Absolutely. Some of them are absolutely fucking useless when it comes to labs that are anything other than CRP or Leukocytes being too high.
Yeah i just. Arggm. If i call one of the internists with blood values that are way off course i can trust that 1)they know why this is a problem 2)they will take care of it asap If i do the same with a surgeon i gotta be happy if i get a control before midnight. My old boss used to call them 'plumbers for people, with the mindset to match' and GDI she wasn't wrong.
@Emma Also today on 'oh Lord it's bad' my Internist on duty just reacted to a Parameter i phoned through with a whistle and an 'oh wow' Value in question: creatinine-kinase of 12k (precisrly:12180)
Ah not crea itself, CK (and ckmb, which clocked in at 80, which...yikes) is U/l with the normal range ending at 174 for CK and 24 U/l for CKMB
I mean after that krea of 23... But yeah doc on duty was mumbling about rhabdomylosis so i reckon that's what's going down there
Yeah, sounds like rhabdomyolysis and that will fuck up your kidneys something awful. Hopefully they won't be permanently damaged.
It's the last day of april which means nobody can stop me from drinking maibowle Aka poison green, Woodruff flavoured sparkling wine This stuff is so good it's kinda criminal that i can't get it more often
I'm self-medicating my weather headaches with coffee again (btw: Fuck The Weather Changes) and now my legs are all bouncy and i got the anxiety jiggles and just Don't Enjoy This
