About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 I was a third-year medical student on rotation in the emergency room at Riverside Hospital. I was introduced to the doctors’ lounge, and saw a film hanging on one of the viewing boxes. It was an X-ray of an abdomen, with a crystal-clear image of a metal flashlight. I had never seen anything like it.
#2 As a third-year med student, I was about to walk into a room and see a patient. I was extremely nervous, but I tried to act like a doctor. I was so nervous that I failed to notice that all four appendages were in full leather restraints.
#3 The head doctor at the hospital where I was a third-year medical student asked me what seemed to be the problem with my patient. I replied that I didn’t know, but that he might be on drugs. The director then explained the symptoms of delirium tremors, which included hallucinations, loss of touch with reality, and many physiologic changes including a rapid pulse and a lot of perspiring.
#4 I spent the next half-hour reading about DTs, then went off to see a series of sore throats, backaches, and flu cases. These were the kinds of maladies I had expected to see in practice, before the third year of medical school kicked me into reality.

The intern and I chased after the drug addict, who was running between, around, and sometimes over the tops of parked cars. We finally cornered and tackled him, and as we sat on him waiting for the Librium to take effect, the nurse brought out a syringe and a vial of Librium.
