<strong>Julie Markum, M.D at bed 12 with Bobbilicious and Charlotte Angels</strong><br/><br/>Julie stood where she was for a moment, watching Bob Boss, M.D. walk away without even waiting for her.  She threw her shoulders back and followed him.   She took the patient notes and turned her head sideways to follow some of the scribbles.<br/><br/>Julie furrowed her brow.  "I don't know if we need to just give up on her like that.  It says here she was using Heroin.  Half the Heroin OD cases are due to their being cut with Quinine.  It would be good to go ahead and assume that while we wait for the toxicity reports to be returned.  The treatment for Quinine poisoning isn't going to hurt her even if it was actually rat poison that it was cut with instead.  I'd suggest we start with the Activated Charcoal at a higher dose...say 30mg, keep flooding her with IVs. And repeating the charcoal for the next 48 hours."<br/><br/>She trailed off as she kept her eyes on the chart, thinking.  "It doesn't say anything about seizures...though, who can tell with some of this chicken scratch..."<br/><br/>She walked over to the patient and opened her eyes, flipped on her penlight and looked at the pupils.  "They're still reacting at least."<br/><br/>"So, yeah, we might want to even look at a 5mg Diazepam drip if seizures have been involved," she added.  Her eyes flicked up to Dr. Boss' without any particular emotion, just matter of fact coolness.<br/><br/>"Oh...and, we probably ought to think about giving her palliative heroine to keep the withdrawal symptoms at bay as we figure out what the hell else is wrong with her.  If we're lucky, we can save her life, even though she'll probably be blind."<br/><br/>
