WOW. just shows you what shock can do. he didn't even feel it. thank god he didnt get an MRI, that would have killed him.

the worst part of that story is...

Despite his lack of medical insurance and hospital bills between $80,000 and $100,000, Katerina Lawler said her husband is in good spirits.

when i was in the states i cut my eyeball and refused to go to the hospital so i stayed in bed for 2days and i was blind and in pain ..i eventually went to a clinic...i wasnt goin go to hospital cause of ur medical bills over there...

feel sorry for the guy..nice xrays all the same..

thats the catch 22..... best doctors come here b/c the system lets em make more money by using insurance costs to say they need to charge more.

i know a dentist who works 10-6 m-f and made over 355k last year.

**Mr.Big** · January 17, 2005, 01:40:13 PM

^OMFG thats a shit lot of money...thats just wrong...i mean come on a dentist isnt that skilled to be payed that much..

the system is wrong defo..

**thesightless** · January 17, 2005, 01:45:33 PM

word. thank insurance companies. they bang dentists nearly a much as anesthesiologist b/c the dentist do all the sedations themselves.

silly isnt it. but hell i know im safe to a degree.

**Mr.Big** · January 17, 2005, 01:59:17 PM

^yeah i guess..i just feel sorry on someone who earns very little and gets really sick..there kinda screwed..although our health care is slow and the hospitals are kinda shit at least its free thats the benefit really.

Re: This must have hurt...or not

the nail gun would have to be pressed against your skin to discharge. unless it fired of something then into wherever it went. most construction guys are all snapped out on the job anyway.

how he don't feel anything into his skull that's a strange thing.

**Pataky P** · January 17, 2005, 04:19:57 PM

**thesightless** · January 17, 2005, 04:24:27 PM

shock. plain and simple. when i was in post op i asked my C.O. when they were gonna fix my arm..... i didnt even remember being treated. i woke up the next day with 35 staples and 8 inch scar running down my tricep onto my forearm wondering what the hell happened. shock can kill you by itself.
