Reflections of a Prehospital Care Paramedic

You Can’t Make This Stuff Up

without comments

This amusing story comes to us from a co-worker.

He responded to a 911 call to find a man unconscious on the floor. His friend reported that he had found him there minutes before.

“Does he take medicines? asked the medic.

“Yeah, he does. What was that? – Oh, I remember, ‘Peanut Butter Balls’,” he said. “That’s it.”

“Huh?” the medic replied. “Where’s the pill bottle?”

The victim’s friend handed over a bottle labeled, “Phenobarbital.”
