A patient says that she's only on medical marijuana right now. She used to take anti-seizure medications in the past, but is no longer on them. Okay, she's very good. Okay, is the family that's present able to answer any questions if the patient doesn't want to answer your questions like for example why she's not on anti-seizure medications or how long it's been since her last seizure move back in the city going back to one okay uh patient is a no different four uh patient was not post-fixed when we got here she was completely oriented times four We hear very conscious of what she's saying and she's something that she does not want to be transferred to the hospital. SINER X-13 and N-13 Still Alarm at Station 13, Utilize Time 1. I understand the people who are tried sickville can be quite repetitive, and that doesn't answer my original question. So then the... Utilize back one. Rescue 13 and Engine 13. Response is still alarm. At 1801, North Hoagland Boulevard, KFD 13. Cross streets are Foxhall Circle and Spitfire Avenue. The most important thing is the frequency of seizures, whether or not she has follow-up neurologist, and why she's not on seizure medication. If she sees this for one to two minutes, they can certainly call us back. But if she sees this for more than five minutes, she could have a hypoxic brain injury and we might not get back in time. So we just need a little bit more information, either from the patient or from family or roommates, to see that this is a safe thing to not transfer. Myself and Lieutenant Millwater have also explained that to patients. And roommate is here listening to everything that you're saying as well. Okay, so does anyone know the answers to my questions? Either the patient or her roommate or any family that can be on the phone. ...for years ago? And why was that? And when was her last seizure? She said that the medication was not working anymore, and it was ineffective so she said that medical marijuana was actually the only solution to her future. Her seizure was about 10 minutes ago before we got here. And prior to that, when was her last seizure? I'm gonna present say about two, three weeks ago. Okay. So we would recommend follow-up with neurology and then calling us back if she has another seizure that lasts for more than one to two minutes. If she has any abortive medication like VersaD or Val Tocco, that would be something that her roommate needs to know how to use if that's available to them. Okay, please have the roommate sign as a witness to the refusal conversation. Patient is on POV. That you can show the tower and rescue available in quarters. Thanks, Iger. Is everybody doing good? I'm good.
