So they give everybody heparin shots 3 times a day.

Have had to deal with hospitals and doctors way too much in the past five years.

No. They do not give everybody heparin shots 3 times a day.

So I would take this rant with a bit of salt.

I just got out of the hospital last week and again in February, they did want to giver everyone the heparin the an every day

Also they gave me the antacid in the IV, the nutrition stuff is real, almost everything he said in the video matches my experiences.

Yeah, a lot of this is not true. I have stopped them from giving my wife antibiotics to which she’s allergic, though.

Agree. My wife just spent 2 days in the hospital. All we ever got was ignored, no one asked about any vaccines or other shots (although this IS Florida!).

I think it differs among hospitals and hospital chains.

Yes they do as they did me after major surgery. There is fractionated heparin that need less frequent injections and continuous heparin drips that are used dependent on the required anti-coagulant therapy.

Yeah, I have been hospitalized many, MANY times, and never encountered most of this. This doc has no idea, or is just hearing about really negligent hospitals.

I only received heparin on dialysis as part of my schedule, and I take a daily PPI. I also work in a medical field, particularly with drugs. I’m familiar with a lot of these issues.

If you’re sick, you will sleep. Period. I’ve slept whole days; and the nurses have to come in to check your vitals, make sure you’re breathing normally, haven’t vomited, had a fall, and so forth. The nurses at my hospitals were in and out in under five minutes, so I always fell back asleep. I have never been offered psych meds, or slipped them. I know what all of my meds look like, and would recognize something extra. Besides, docs will prescribe meds for the insomnia, like Benadryl or Xanax, depending on what meds you take at home.

I’ve been lucky enough to be able to advocate for myself, and I’m thankfully knowledgable. I know many are not (you know how many people have no clue what meds they take or what they’re for?), and are stuck with negligent hospitals.

Still, I agree - salt, grain, etc. with this one.

Same here.

Spent over two weeks with my wife in ICU. I was in that room for 90% of the time and when I was not in the room, a close family member was.

The writer is 100% correct about one thing. Don't you dare leave a seriously sick person alone in a hospital room without a caring family member advocate in the room!

Exactly.

People who write this kind of crap have never spent time in the ‘’trenches’’ of a hospital ER and seen what goes on.

In some cases you’re lucky if a doctor spends five minutes ‘’consulting’’ with you.

Just watch out for the $200 or 300 hundred dollar bill you get for this ‘’consultation’’.
