Nurse accused of killing 38 patients she found "annoying."

[8mpg]

he's a pretty laid back, easy going nice guy from what Ive seen.




and you come across as a know-it-all pompous prick who makes excuses when you are wrong.

meh...it happens

8mpg is a nurse?

Yes, Im a nurse. I have been doing ER/Critical care for the last 7 years

Thats when I know about it, when medicine has a lactose binder and they just throw it at me, I constantly have to double check. I don't mind double checking, but they get pissy when I question them, kind of like you actually.

So what you're saying is because they don't know what it does to a person, they just don't care? Hope they never get a hold of someone with a severe allergy.

Im really sorry to hear that man. In the 7 years I have been doing healthcare, I have NEVER come across a single patient that has had this problem. Lactose intolerant people yes but never something so specific as a lactose binding problem. I couldnt tell you (and I doubt any Drs I work with) could name 5 drugs that are lactose binding. We rely on computer systems these days to help screen medications and allergies. Obviously there isnt much in the medication databases to help you out. Thus, I wouldnt expect much from the people prescribing or giving you medications.

edit/// I just googled medications with lactose and didnt find too much info. A single study a small list and a general page that says thousands of medications use lactose as a coating or filler. If that is the case, it could vary from manufacturer to manufacturer of the same medications. If you are worried, better get some lactaid.

I heard a nurse state a similar thing about killing patients before. I never thought I would read about a nurse killing that many.

No, it'd be this guy:

They said annoying, not stupid. Magnus would for sure be a dead motherfucker.

Well, I would have died on her watch.

No, it'd be this guy:

Any body want some pizza?

probably feels like deja vu, no?

Well then you know better than to drink milk or eat milk products. There are so many allergies out there, how can we know and be perfect for all of them. Med allergies, food allergies... then you have people who say they have an allergy to it and they dont...they experience side effects of it. There is no perfect healthcare and if you getting milk products you know you shouldnt eat is the worst thing you can bitch about, Im sorry your treatment is so horrible.

Where have you been the last 5 years? He's Paramedic Tim with slightly more credibility.

I was generalizing.

interesting... You seem like a nice guy and Im sure the nurses love you.

I'm a hell of a nice guy and the nurses do like me. I'm friendly, polite, and very low maintenance, but I tend to get real annoyed when I don't receive basic care and courtesy. You have to understand that when I'm in the hospital, it's for a disease that causes severe stomach pain. Care to guess what symptoms milk gives me?

Premenstrual?

Close. Painful gas and cramping, which the doctors then mistake for the disease.
