Actually I believe the haldol was the intramuscular variety but was mainlined, so I was told.
whoa there tiger, way to completely miss the fucking point and go on a rant. The point made which you would noticed, if you had used your brain before typing, was that healthcare aint free, period. Sekio just don't pay when he is right there in hospital, instead he will pay over his whole life, and even then it won't be enough to maintain the current standard of healthcare in Canada. so fuck you.But this isn't the place for it, so how about you keep your political bullshit to yourself.
And you couldn't make that point without talking about "loonie progessives", not to mention, in the context of Sekio's comment, your whole point was stupid, when people talk about toll roads vs free roads NOBODY chimes in that "Hey roads aren't free to drive on!", Sekio's whole point was that he didn't have to pay a single cent at the point of care or during his hospital stays, so YOU missed the point.
And if I was ranting what exactly were you doing? I wasn't the one slinging insults around. Sorry you don't like to see your bullshit countered with actual facts. I know it's hard for you to process more than 280 characters at a time, but when I make assertions I like to back them up, just like you couldn't resist the urge to bring your right-wing nonsense where it doesn't belong because you thought you had an opening thanks to Sekio's comment, I can't allow said bullshit to go unchecked. You must be pretty used to being insulated from opposing thought because I seem to have really hit a nerve, maybe you should change it off Fox News every now and then.
edit: And speaking of missing points, you seem to have done it again. The OP has asked in earnest for us to stop talking about the legal side of his problem and stick to the pharmacology, maybe you would have noticed that if you had used your brain before typing, so stop trying to pretend to be a lawyer because honestly most of the legal advice you are trying to give is horribly inaccurate.
Well, if I learned anything from this thread it just affirms something I already knew, and that was the simple philosophy that if they speak at all they will expose themselves. I know what happened, likely the doctors and other staff will all claim that they can't remember anything, assuming that whoever "doctored" the file covered their ass, they will then find out that their ass was not covered and either divulge incriminating evidence or hold tight to whatever claim they asserted within the medical file that will ultimately substantiate my claims. I can say that I am a little bit disappointed with the feedback from this forum, but not really all that surprised. I was hoping to validate some of my learnings about this drug cocktail, but all I have really gotten was a fourth rate opinion from someone who sounds more than happy to take drugs x,y,z,a,d,and e, if it means they get dosed with drug k at some point, very poor neurological viewpoint imo. Just in case anyone really cares about the actual facts, I refused treatment on religious grounds, the individuals trump card when it comes to medical treatment in America. The hospital staff treated me anyway and steadily told me I wouldn't remember anything. No one could have known that I possess hsam(human superior autobiographical memory) as well as a vast knowledge of human physiology, psychology, and to a lesser extent neurology.
At this point since I'm not really getting any answers I will open the thread to questions. I truly feel that if I can share wisdom or knowledge through my experience then I have reduced harm for a predecessor seeking enlightenment and that is a big part of who I am.
Please think about this post before you reply in this thread and ask yourself if you are genuinely trying to help your brother in life, or are you trying to reaffirm some personal conception about your own ego or relevance.
If the patient was not under arrest, and had capacity and was refusing treatment then ethically the medics should get a pateint signed discharge and discharge the patient doing anything else is dangerous. If the patient then dies as a consequence that is the patients choice, the medics are covered.
the doctor involved could have defended the position but didn't, because his attorney, someone with no skin in the game, advised settling. Read into that what you like.
"someone with no skin in the game"?
A doctor looking at a malpractice suit usually doesn't settle for a shitty public defender that couldn't give less of a fuck about the client.
In all likelihood they got a lawyer which specializes in these kinds of lawsuits, and didn't come cheap.
Those lawyers have a reputation to uphold, or else they wouldn't be able to command these fees; so yes, they do have "skin in the game".
Although the physician was prepared to testify that although the patient was legally drunk, he was still lucid enough to make the ?against medical advice? decision, the attorney advised him that this would be a dangerous course of action and that settling the case out of court would be wiser. The case settled out of court for an amount within the physician's malpractice limits
