They are milking this big time at the Hospital.
The family is now upset. They just ran a report to the press that he has had a heart attack.
ACTUALLY, WHAT HE HAD WAS A FIB caused by pellet pressure.
When pushed further on it...Dr. Presshound sort of backed off.
Just so happens I was at a heart associaton function when they ran the report.
A Dr. sitting with me said he would never call that a heart attack. Pointed out how pulse change can be attributed to much more credited causes.
He said that if a patient has not indication of it.....it is wiser to check for other causes.
Where are the patient advocates? They should be speaking out to respond to the ethics of this outraged press and their right to know everything. All the HIPAA laws we have to sign protecting patients privacy go right out the window.
