@laureningram @millionsofmyles @NewtonMark But that’s because you chose the career you did, Lauren. It can be done but you need to make the hard choices.
@sndon50@KirralieS@DanielAndrewsMP I voted for him and would do it again in a second. Sadly his management of covid saved idiots like you, whom we could have all done without but whatevs.
@MizTeeFranklin Also, there is a clear correlation between people who say "I have a high pain tolerance" and rating their pain way higher than their actions and appearance suggest.
@MizTeeFranklin Even a person under anaesthetic in theatre will have a rise in respiratory rate and heart rate in response to the surgeon making a cut. WHEN THEY ARE ASLEEP! If you think your pain in 9/10 but look fine, you clearly have a low pain tolerance.
@leGingerSnap_ @MizTeeFranklin For instance if come to ER &you tell me your chronic pelvic pain flare is a 10/10 but you are texting your boyfriend and eating fast food in the hospital cubicle, with normal obs and able to hold a full normal convo, then you can fuck right off home thanks.
@leGingerSnap_ @MizTeeFranklin The pain scale isn't taken at face value. We ask you to gain information about the way you FEEL about your pain. There are also another 5-6 things we look at, objectively, that tell us about your pain level, including your breathing patterns and rate, your obs, sweating, etc.
