(ON RADIO) [inaudible] 3250.
[inaudible] is on scene.
Requesting EMS for a female that smoked marijuana,
and now she's nauseous.
3250, copy.
Apparently, this chick smoked some weed,
and now, she's nauseous.
You know what's crazy?
I thought weed helps with nausea.
That's what I thought.
I thought you got hungry, happy, sleepy.
Right.
I thought that was the side effects of weed.
Feel like there's going to be a little more to this.
You right.
That she hit that pressure, and it's got her head spinning.
- Yeah. - And now, she's nauseous.
That could be--
Due to the spinning of the head.
That is true.
That could happen.
3250, we're in the area.
All right.
What's up, brother?
What's going on with her?
Just that she smoked weed, and she's
been feeling like she wants to throw
up for the last several hours.
She wants to go to the hospital.
She's taking medication for ADHD.
All right.
This really could be anything.
She could have taken something other than marijuana,
and there could be a serious medical emergency underlying.
And so it's really important that we assess the situation
and see what's going on with this young lady.
What's going on with you?
I had some weed, but a really bad high.
I felt like I was going to vomit.
- All right. - Panic attack on top of it.
Right.
Do you want to go to the hospital?
- Yes. - OK.
All right. So you ready?
- Yes. - Let's go sweetheart.
Oh, no. Chartreuse.
- Chartruth? - Chartreuse.
- Oh, Chartreuse. - Like the color.
The color. That makes sense.
All right.
Yeah, we got the stretcher right by the door.
Let me see.
Like, am I gonna be like strapped to it?
Well, we've got to put seatbelts on.
I mean, the police here.
We don't want to get a seatbelt ticket, you know?
OK. OK.
Seatbelt, that's-- - Right.
Now, stand up.
You all right?
Did you ever-- did you vomit yet?
Or you just felt like you'd vomit?
Thank God, no.
When I see someone that's having anxiety attack,
it's all about talking to them and calming them down.
All she needs right now is a little love and understanding.
And make sure she knows there's no judgment.
And so I got to ask, you just smoked weed?
That was it? Nothing else?
Just weed. Just weed.
OK.
I mean, I had mac and cheese beforehand.
Yeah.
Did you smoke it?
As long as you ain't smoke the mac and cheese.
No. The sauce was homemade.
- Oh, really? - That's impressive.
You make it? - No, no.
My sister did.
She's wonderful.
That's your sister that was in there with you?
No, no. That was my partner.
Oh, OK.
So the only thing I'm going do right now
is, I'm going to put a blood pressure cuff on you.
We're going to put-- I think you're going to be fine.
You know what?
I think you kind of cleared yourself
up with your anxiety attack.
Yeah.
Because now I know there are people here to help me.
We got you.
I am going to put a mask on you, just because of COVID,
all right?
OK.
I have some nice masks.
But I don't think they do their job quite
right, so this is welcome.
This one's welcome.
But let me get this blood pressure,
then we're going to get to going, all right?
Yay.
So we're tight.
How much weed did we smoke?
It was like-- it was just one blunt,
but I want to say eight puffs.
So has this ever happened to you before?
No, this is a new reaction.
Is this is your first time smoking weed?
Well, the first time that it's ever
actually done anything to me, other than make me hungry.
You all be good.
They can take the [inaudible] to it.
That's kind of loud. I'm sorry.
I should have warned you about that.
People who are on drugs of any kind, sometimes loud noises
can really throw you for a loop and give
you some extreme anxiety.
Look, I can ease your mind and tell you everything looks
good back here on this monitor.
You got a perfect textbook perfect blood pressure.
Huh.
Textbooks usually have it out for me.
Oh?
Not for like school reasons, but because I'm
of a few minority groups.
So most of what I was taught back when I was in school
was about racism, but they sort of
forgot to mention homophobia, transphobia,
ableism, a lot of other things, just a lot of bigotry.
Well, check me out.
This is a textbook-free zone right here.
We're writing our own textbooks these days.
I think her marijuana may have been
a little too strong for her, but she's
going to get to the hospital.
They'll give her some medicines for her anxiety.
But ultimately, I think this patient's going to be fine.
To me, you're a nice high person.
I like nice high people.
Because I try to be a nice person.
You are.
Being mean takes too much energy.
It doesn't feel natural for me.
It's just not my thing.
Plus--
You got Chartreuse with you?
They go check you out, and you'll be back home in no time.
All right, little mama.
How you feeling?
I'm telling you, if all our patients
are half as nice as you, we're going to be all right.
But the night's still young.
