for 57-year-old female
who is choking.
She has a complete
obstruction at this time.
[Indistinct]
the female took a roach bomb
shot to the throat.
[Indistinct].
"A roach bomb shot
in her throat," what?
Oh. What?
[Indistinct]
the obstruction.
"A roach bomb shot"?
So what I'm thinking
is maybe they set off
this roach bomb,
and then it hit her
in the throat
and she's just coughing,
and I would hope
that she did not
swallow a roach bomb.
If there is actually
a bug
in this woman's airway ...
Ah.
I don't do roaches.
I just don't.
I don't like roaches,
period.
I will literally kiss
a snake on the mouth,
a wild snake on the mouth,
before I let
a roach touch me.
I took a beetle out
of somebody's ear once.
If that was ...
That was messed up.
I took a moth
out of somebody's ear, too.
That was pretty messed up,
but a roach
in the airway ...
Roach in the airway.
Ah.
I would have a rat
as a pet that I let sit
on my shoulder,
and I would feed it cheese
with my mouth
before I would voluntarily
let a roach crawl on me.
It better be dead.
I don't ...
If that comes
out alive ...
Oh, yeah. That is just
all sorts of messed up.
6220.
You can show me in the area.
Hi.
What's going on?
Like a roach bomb?
Oh, you opened it
to set it off ...
... and you inhaled it.
Okay.
Okay. You have asthma.
Do you have any other
medical problems, COPD,
any other breathing
problems?
Okay. Let me listen
to your lungs, okay?
Take some big, deep breaths.
This woman was trying
to set off a roach bomb,
and it went off in her face,
and she was really feeling
short of breath,
but she definitely was not
choking on a cockroach.
Do you have the package
for that roach bomb?
Oh, you set it off
in the car? Oh, I see why.
I see little roaches
crawling up on the post.
Oh, lord.
I see them crawling all
over the car now.
You've been
taking your puffs.
How many puffs did you take?
You took how many puffs,
about, do you think:
five, ten puffs?
Okay.
I don't think
you need any more. Yeah.
Yeah.
Because I'm not familiar
with the chemicals that are
in this roach fogger,
my first thought
is to contact poison control
because they can tell me
a lot more about
what symptoms this can cause
and what treatments should
be provided to this patient
than I would just
know on my own.
So she set this off
in her car.
When she set it off ...
It's a fogger.
She inhaled it. I know.
I know.
It's kind of like ...
She's got a teeny, teeny,
tiny bit of excretory
wheezing on the right side,
and she's definitely got
some bronchi
but nothing crazy at all.
Because of her medical
history and because
she inhaled chemicals,
she definitely needs to be
monitored over the course
of probably several hours
to make sure that she
doesn't have any progressive
worsening of any symptoms
that she's having right now.
Now, where was it?
Right here in this car.
Oh, you were in the car?
Yeah.
Ah.
You see the roaches
all over the car.
Oh, gross.
Yeah.
Oh.
Yeah.
And it just
went off on you.
All right.
She's going to be okay.
Don't rush. All right?
So we're just going
to use this to get a better
look at your breathing.
It's going to be a little
bit of a pinch in the back
of your arm here, okay?
Ready? One, two, three.
I know. I'm sorry, love.
So her stats are 98,
Heart reads 106.
Looking good so far.
Oh, [BLEEP].
What up?
It's a roach.
Gross.
Are you kidding me,
and actual ...
Where at?
It's on the oxygen tank.
I've got to go.
Where is that?
Where it came from?
Y'all got to let me out.
Where is it?
Why am I on roach duty?
I don't know
where it went now.
That's the one thing
I don't do, Ms. Brenda.
I don't do roaches, baby.
I've got to go.
You in good hands,
though. All right?
Oh, there we go.
Oh, [BLEEP].
Where is it at?
Did you get it?
Oh, they probably came
with the ...
Put that outside.
I would have ...
Okay. Put it outside.
All right, Happy.
I'm going to leave her in
your capable hands. Goodbye.
You good. Yeah, you good.
Ms. Brenda ...
It was so nice to meet you,
Ms. Brenda,
but I don't do roaches.
All right?
They're going to take care.
Got to go. I'm done
with the whole night.
The second I see that roach
just scurry, I'm out because
now they're in my space.
It's like, everybody
has just their line,
"I can't do this,"
and roaches are mine.
I've never seen
Holly move so fast.
Oh, yeah. I've got
roach guts on my boot. Okay.
That's great. You got it.
Yeah.
In Boston, I never saw
a cockroach on a scene,
so this is the first time
I had to kill a cockroach
in the back of my ambulance.
But I guess it is kind of
what I signed up for.
How you feeling?
Any chest pain.
It opened up now?
So you ain't got no pain
and nausea, vomiting,
anything like that?
Uh-uh.
Okay. Good enough.
See you fixed it
before we even got to you.
I was about to say,
you put a bug bomb in there.
I think it's just time
you look into some
new transportation, though.
