Save your sick days for when you are really sick. Don't come to work sick, Don't come to work sick and finally. DON'T COME TO WORK SICK. That goes double for kids and school.
Your's truly a retired paramedic.
Also, Benadryl making you sleepy is not a allergic reaction.

The medicine cabinet one was actually really helpful. Didn’t know

Women, you should know about your body, including your reproductive system. Looking at it or researching about it is not wrong and it can help you notice when something is wrong down there

Antibiotics should be a last resort medication and not something for a cold.

Re: not keeping drugs in the "medicine cabinet." Use a lockable drawer in your bedroom. That also keeps kids/roommates/ pets out

So the Immune System cares about you in the same way John Wick (Keanu Reaves) cares about his dogs.

Nice.

I passed my biology exam because of this video

Doctor explaining about new research, look things up and such.

I have fabry disease and the doctor testing me for it had no idea about it. I was his first case.

Uncle died, medical research discovered it. X linked disease (gran must have had it) mum got tested, she has it. I got tested, I have it.

Doctor was so excited.

Moved to new area, new doctor. Doctor didn't kniw about it either.

I have studied it and spend a lot of time in hospital and with specialists. Even basic information can help. I have a card with the disease name, the medical code, description of disease and possible symptoms. I also know my mutation.

Saves a huge amount of time as the doctor doesn't have to Google it.

9:27 that's how I was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. frequent heart attack symptoms plus cardiac stress test with echocardiogram at 38. I'm much better now. Waited months because anxiety and depression are twins from hell.

7:43 :Inbetween laughing: Someone put a GERBIL up their WHAT?!?!?!

Seriously apendicitis is very common yet people dismiss it as not “serious” pain. Get it checked out immediately. It almost cost me my life as well

If someone possibly has a broken back/neck: DON'T MOVE THEM. Call an ambulance. Keep their head in the same place. Don't let them move. Don't pick them up. Let the paramedics deal with it.
Any movement could worsen the injury to the point of paralysis.

The first only made me think of Osmosis Jones.

0:45 tell the police nothing, tell the paramedics everything
