My wife and i have been doing some traveling, been hauling around a 33 lb child for hours. Ended up with one hell of a sprain/strain/maybe even partial tear of my rotator cuff. Currently barely able to flex, abduct, and externally rotate my L shoulder, excruciating pain with those movements.
Have to work in 2 days, really starting to doubt if i could intubate, it’s my arm that holds the mac blade. So ibuprofen, Tylenol, and suck it up and hope i don’t have to intubate or just hope adrenaline takes over? Or contact my medical director? I work single coverage so there’s that. It seems like such a silly thing to be unable to work for 😂😂😂 i would literally feel embarrassed telling my medical director 😂😂 i can work and see every other kind of patient but i just don’t think i will physically be able to intubate.
