@markpoulter5 @YongwooJeo59032 @TrackYourHeart I'm not mocking him as a person. I'm mocking the AI that got this simple diagnosis so egregiously wrong.

@YongwooJeo59032 @TrackYourHeart Yeah I think my job is safe

Getting sick the night before call week is not ideal 😅

@theblanketdog Even as a resident, I'm sometimes doubtful of their definition of "try." We drained 11 liters on a para yesterday because they told there wasn't a good window.

Busy but rewarding day today:

2 pelvic bleeders embolized
TIPS revision
MAA mapping
Liver stain and ablate

Primary operator on all of them! 3 more nights of call to go!!

@TylerBolli37223 @fuqekgs And I can promise you we as doctors hate it just as much if not more than you do. It doesn't feel great having people without a medical background telling us how to do our job and putting roadblocks in the way whenever we try to advocate for our patients.

[Dylan Later, DO @DylanLater]

@fuqekgs @TylerBolli37223 Responded under the wrong comment lol. But, yes. We do. So much.

[Dylan Later, DO @DylanLater]

@fuqekgs @TylerBolli37223 People don't take care of their bodies. You can't cure diabetes or heart disease with meds. Doctors can preach lifestyle changes until they're blue in the face, but reality is patients rarely do anything about it. The root is poor lifestyle choices.

[Dylan Later, DO @DylanLater]

@TylerBolli37223 @fuqekgs Except the real root cause of the problems in this case is the "patient" went 8,000 miles over on their oil and then blames the mechanic when there's a problem that was nearly all but preventable if they took care of their car in the first place.

Nothing like transitioning to nights, waking up 8 hours before shift wide awake, and unable to fall back asleep...gonna be a loooooooong night

[Dylan Later, DO @DylanLater]

@theblanketdog And then my wife will just get mad at it cuz it was loaded wrong

@alexandertyler I can take breaks...it's for democracy, after all 👀

@Jacobtheclipper Careful. Don't look up workout videos of Jordan. You might start questioning his athleticism and strength.

@theblanketdog @GamerEMDoc "No IR indication for chole tube without overt signs of cholecystitis or obstruction." Then wait to get written up because we're "refusing" to treat patients.
