When I had an Anakit, my doctor thought the kit maker’s idea of a tourniquet was funny.
They had a 6-inch string in the kit.
My doctor laughed and said, “I gues that’s their idea of a tourniquet.”
Then he told me to use a different tourniquet.
don’t keep the Epi in the car!
SVN: Small Volume Nebulizer.
That’s what my friend, a Paramedic of 20 years, told me.
I never saw one, and I used to be an EMT-I (I for Intermediate.)
It’s good that you have an Epi-pen. But you also need to educate the people around you about your condition not just your Paramedic friend because he can’t be there all the time. Get a few Epi-pens and put them in a few places like in your car or house, to basically have one in close proximity to yourself. Have a clearly marked easy to read action plan on your person on how to use the Epi-pen incase you cannot do it yourself in an emergency and time is very limited. Hope this helps. Good Luck
I wish I knew what else they did for me during this reaction. All I remember is gasping for air even though I was on oxygen, then losing my airway and blacking out.
I came to in the ER, and I’ve carried an Epi-pen since then.
I hope I don’t have to use it, b/c my reaction happens so fast I don’t believe I’ll have time to do so.
My friend’s a Paramedic and I showed him the Epi-pen, told him he’ll probably have to help if I have the reaction again.
I’m glad he was willing to do so.
Just starting to learn more about the various treatments for the patient….Thanks as this helps!! Must monitor airway and blood pressure
he sounds like he has a cold or sumthing
