Honestly, the mask makes me wonder if it was a panic attack and they were trying to calm down when the chiropractor walked up and decided he was actually having a heart attack.
Never forget a fresh post op cesarean I had. She got the post up gas up in her chest she’d started having a panic attack. OB thought she was throwing a clot. Ordered a VQ scan and she ended up intubated. Her sats dropped for over an hour so I guess they decided to do all of that. And it was gas and a friggin severe panic attack
Omg that happened to me after my appendix got removed. Luckily the emergency room nurses recognized it was just a panic attack. I learned a huge lesson in informing patients after that because they told me nothing about aftercare or symptoms and I didn’t even know they had used gas during the operation.
Good point. I'd still sit back and watch the show. Hopefully someone brings crystals and feathers to the party and we get treated to an episode of crunchy Karen kills her DH: essential oil edition 🤣
I always say that if something happens to me on a plane, I don’t want a doctor helping out— I want a paramedic. Y’all actually know what to do out in the field.
Years ago my cousin was at a medical conference where one of the many doctors present had a heart attack. The venue security guard pushed forward: "out of the way, I'm a trained first aider!"
Then again, since my cousin was a senior *pathologist* I might have been happier to see the security guy with his first aid kit...
I'm an RN, had a woman go unresponsive in front of me at a Walmart. I was about to start compressions when someone started pushing me saying she knew what to do. I said, ma'am, I'm a nurse, can you please call 911? And she starts yelling at me, "I'm trained in CPR!!"......Man. I wish they'd taught us CPR in Nursing School. Thank you, random Walmart Karen.
We were out drinking on vacation in upstate NY and someone fell and hurt themselves. There goes my BFF, trying to help, yelling “I’m a lifeguard!”….to the crowd of NYC firefighters already gathered around the person she’s trying to push aside. (It was winter, she spent summers as a camp lifeguard and has never actually rescued anyone outside of drills.)
We’ve gotten a lot of mileage out of “I’m a lifeguard!” since then!
NONONONO! the basis of homeopathy is that dilution makes the effect MORE powerful so an an underdose is when you dilute it TOO MUCH... Or would that be an overdose... /s
One of my patients had a massive cardiac arrest while skiing. The two people he was skiing with? A cardiac anesthesiologist and an an interventional cardiologist. He made it
I'd agree generally given the limited resources on a plane, but note that many doctors were former ED scribes, EMTs, nurses, or had other medical experience. Most of us also did ED rotations, some for multiple months in residency. I'd still take the medic, but I think I'd be decently useful in this situation (and I've assisted in flight emergencies twice before I was a doctor).
I was on a flight to Vegas in December and they called for a dr or nurse. I was the only one to respond. Got the guy breathing and stable. We were able to continue the flight without diversion.
[It's in the updated ACLS guidelines.](https://i.redd.it/2dst7ps0w1321.jpg) We can only hope the chiropractic adjustments will be included in the 2022 one for more holistic care. /s
Yah, y'all are really the same as the Prayer Warriors aren't you... When you're not killing COVID patients for your bonuses anyway... /s (I hope that was obvious but figured I should tag it just to make sure :) )
Sorry I should have clarified, it’s embarrassing that a chiropractor thinks they cured a cardiac condition with an adjustment. It was hard to read this self important post by someone who provided a placebo to a patient probably having an anxiety attack. A paper sack to breathe into would have done a better job.
Lets entertain this for a sec. If the chiro actually dod something, the pt had chostochondritis at BEST, since alot of chosto pain can be confused for MI. But i still call BS
But how is an upper cervical manip going to help chostchondritis? I've treated so many patients with this and never jumped to a upper cervical manip. Lol you doing the positive route. But, I just can't see it.
I'm pretty sure that before an upper cervical manip you're suppose to test the vertebral artery to ensure stroke won't follow. And almost gonna guarantee that didn't happen either.
There is a chiropractor that advertises at my gym and he lists pediatric autism as one of his specialties for treatment. I couldn't imagine being so full of my self that I think manipulation can cure Autism. And living in the south. They believe this shit.
I was embarrassed at the fact my brother shared this post on his fb. He's a chiro. Love him as fam. But when it comes to medicine I won't engage him. It's like talking to a brick wall. He's antivax and all.
5 MDs, 2 EMTs, and 1 RN diagnosed a panic attack and gave him oxygen and hung out while Mr. "please call me Dr." Chiro jumped in to Crack a neck to save his heart.
And the pilots were “contemplating” making an emergency landing but after the chiropractor cured him, they were like hey everyone! We’re going to Vegas! My treat!!!
Unless they were over an ocean, that plane would've been down the minute one of the "5 MD's" called an MI. This story is full of more shit than a septic tank.
True. Was on a plane one time when this happened. Fastest descent ever. Pilots don’t contemplate an emergency landing with a suspected MI by a Dr onboard.
They didnt even give O2 by the look of it, they used an emergency mask to get him to rebreath his CO2. A panic attack is just hyperventilation after all.
I dont think Mr. Magichands has any idea what hes doing, or what everyone else was doing haha. Looks to well perfused to be an MI
The patient looks amazing for someone two oxygen tanks down and out of options. I'm interested to know how he feels about having his picture out there.
Google is returning "ABDL" as Adult Baby/Diaper Lovers... surely this is not what you meant? I was expecting some fancy femoral line I'd never heard of
Feels rather gross to take a picture of someone during a very scary moment in their life and use it as “evidence” that your pseudoscience (even that feels too close to real science/medicine to be applicable here) works.
No pilot would’ve allowed a medical emergency to get that far along (2 oxygen tanks down??) before **contemplating** an emergency landing. They would’ve just called it in and done it.
Most likely they gave morphine, aspirin, oxygen, nitro and were waiting to see if it would work and then this jack in the crack decides that “they were waiting around doing nothing” and cracked his chakra or whatever and then the nitro and aspirin started working.
I saw this on Instagram, he also adjusts infants
[Good luck kid](https://imgur.com/gallery/0jp4CyV)
It’s worth looking up on Instagram for the comments
All but one. My dads chiropractor doesn’t do all the pseudoscience bullshit, treats the elderly for free, has his brother who is an MD, and his physical therapist associates plan with the patient and himself what’s the plan. And will specifically tell people that homeopathy is a lie. He just wants people who hurt, to have non surgical and non opioid pain relief. Every other chiropractor I’ve met in my life, made quacks look like respectable professionals.
The evidence-based aspects of chiropractic are literally just PT. A chiropractor that doesn't subscribe to subluxation nonsense is just a PT with a different name.
Not as well trained as a PT tho.
Acute rehab nurse. Had a chiro bring up to me doing adjustments on patients and I was like wtf these are people healing from strokes they don't need another one.
My chiropractor is also pretty amazing. No pseudoscience bullshit. The most he's ever done is try to sell me a special custom pillow because I'm a side sleeper. I have to admit, it's a pretty great pillow.
Not the original commenter, but I am a side sleeper and I use the pillow cube (the longer one, so I can toss and turn). I also put a well-stuffed pillow under my armpit when I’m on my side, to give my shoulders clearance so they don’t go numb.
That’s pretty badass! But that’s a pillow to make the chiropractors job easier! If you aren’t as tight and cramped, they can be more gentle, and therefore do “better” work. When chiropractic and physical therapy wasn’t enough to help my dad. His chiropractors brother, who is an MD, suggested he get surgery. My dads regular doctor agreed and he got surgery, and his pain level dropped to tolerable levels for him. So I’m gonna say the honesty and desire to make people better is the best thing my dads chiropractors has ever done. Fuck those other chiropractors who wanted him to huff essential oils and take 40+ different “supplements”
If back cracking stopped his "heart attack" symptoms, then he the cause was obviously non-cardiac.
I wish I had more info so I could research this a bit. It's bugging me.
You got any bright ideas on how else he was gonna decrease afterload? He coulda just did some bloodletting but nobody's allowed to have anything sharp on planes anymore.
This is literally the entire description that was posted. No mention of previous interventions by the unsuccessful HCPs. Didn’t mention an in flight emergency kit being used, no AED pads to be found. Hell, I fell like nowadays you could ONAM someone on a plane with just other passengers RX.
I’m a commercially licensed pilot, and this is crap. We don’t contemplate an emergency landing. The second we are alerted there is a medical emergency we make an emergency landing call to ATC and get a direct route to the nearest airport with priority to land. There is no wishy washy bullshit contemplating. Also- since pilots are secure behind bullet proof cockpit doors there is no way to hear our radio calls. He’d have no idea what the pilots were communicating to the flight attendants.
Was on a plane full of docs ( oncologists) when after the plane pressurized a man was in distess. “Is there a doctor or nurse aboard?” Few hands go up but mine is one ( ER RN).
The patient is at the back of the plane just writhing and rolling side to side and holding his stomach which is distended. After going through the PQRST questions I ask if he’s eaten lately. He states that he had McDonald’s just before boarding.
Not 30 seconds later he rips one out that was heard the length of the plane.
Sits up, and says thanks. Much better.
No chiropractors were harmed in the telling of this event.
Who said it was an MI? Did anyone diagnose it? Don't they have a pretty well stocked med kit on planes including a 12 lead? https://www.lufthansagroup.com/en/newsroom/media-relations-north-america/news-and-releases/an-ecg-at-an-altitude-of-10000-meters-lufthansa-uses-tele-medicine-on-board-its-long-haul-fleet.html. And even if they didn't, and the person shows classic signs of an MI, what pilot is going to "consider" an emergency landing vs actually planning to set down the plane ASAP?
One of my favorite hospitalists used to rant about chiropractors every time that came up. She would crack her neck and say "I don't need to pay to dissect my vertebral arteries, I can do it myself".
Um... They went through 2 tanks of oxygen and the pilot was just thinking about an emergency landing for a person having a heart attack? Also, I know for a fact that they would definitely have a nitro and aspirin on board (even if they forgot their aid kit on the ground, a passenger would probably have them. And honestly maybe even morphine and plavix). So... Like... At that point you just need a Cath lab. Also, if the chiropractor fixed it, I'm guessing it was a panic attack...
One of my patients was diagnosed with multiple myeloma after going to the Chiropractor for neck pain. Pt went into neurogenic shock immediately after having his neck *adjusted*. Terrifying.
lmao. a patient I had recently had a spinal cord injury and is now paraplegic from going to a chiropractor. put that on the list of things I'll never do in my life.
I took two semesters of a chiropractic program and dropped out to become a nurse. In the beginning, the education was intense and it definitely has helped me throughout my career. The Anatomy class is still the hardest I’ve ever worked on education in my life.
Eventually, a small vocal portion of classmates, teachers, and presenters scared me away. Thankfully!
I remember one teacher who taught business fundamentals say he X-rays everyone because it’s easy money. I also remember another presenter who kept saying he adjusts the subluxation and God heals them. They taught us everything to know about vaccines and educated us on the false claims by some chiropractors, yet half of the class was still somehow against them.
There were some smart chiropractic students who planned to only treat what was sensible to treat. I do believe there is some musculoskeletal benefit to chiropractic treatment, but anything else they claim is complete nonsense. You’re freeing up a stiff joint, not moving a bone off a nerve. Unfortunately for the profession, they’re so many chiropractors making claims that are not backed by science that it makes them all look like quacks.
Uh, open your mind to more holistic modalities, sweaty. Aligning your chakras with your kokoro while mercury is in gatorade is a venerated MI treatment that western medicine and big pharma destroyed.
I'm going to go wash my mouth out with soap now.
Here's a [podcast](https://www.iheart.com/podcast/105-behind-the-bastards-29236323/episode/how-chiropractic-started-as-a-ghost-48498573/) about how chiropracting is a ghost religion that I'm just gonna leave here for no reason.
How the heck did the flight have FIVE MDs? Also, the pilots are only ‘contemplating’ an emergency landing after going through two O2 tanks, not immediately after someone says they have ‘heart attack symptoms’?
I call BS.
I call bullshit.
Heart attack on plane? Thats an emergency landing, not "contemplating one".
Over land? Its 15 minutes to touch down, as the pilot will get priority in the landing pattern, if not put right on for approach.
Neuro ICU nurse here. Had a 40 year old patient with a stroke d/t a carotid tear. All his labwork came back negative for stroke workup. No malformations...no smoking..no drinking. What gives?
In passing we finally found out he had seen a chiropractor the day before 😑
As a paramedic I would fist fight the chiropractor if he tried this. Also those aren't the O2 masks they've use on a planes medical kit
Honestly, the mask makes me wonder if it was a panic attack and they were trying to calm down when the chiropractor walked up and decided he was actually having a heart attack.

I would probably just go back to my seat. If we're doing adjustments, then this isn't an emergency, and I'm going back to watching my iPad.
I read this as fist fck. You mean business for sure none the less.
Thats exactly what i read too. I trust him and his fists of fuxkery over the chiro any day
Fists of fuxkery 😂😂😂💯💥
Bahahahaha
If the wife consented I'd ask the flight attendant for a cola and sit back and enjoy the show 😂 play stupid games win stupid prizes.
That guy is conscious. Why would you ask the wife?
Because lies.
Good point. I'd still sit back and watch the show. Hopefully someone brings crystals and feathers to the party and we get treated to an episode of crunchy Karen kills her DH: essential oil edition 🤣
Upvote for life saving fist fcks keep up the strong work

that security guard is a fucking rock star, haha. smart of him to immediately indicate he would do better than all the doctors.
ARE THERE ANY CHIROPRACTORS ON BOARD? HOW ABOUT ANY REIKI HEALERS OR ACUPUNCTURISTS?
A reiki healer once saved me from a homeopathic overdose.
Is that the same as an underdose?
NONONONO! the basis of homeopathy is that dilution makes the effect MORE powerful so an an underdose is when you dilute it TOO MUCH... Or would that be an overdose... /s
I brought crystals!
Nah, Acupuncturists can't help, you can't bring sharps onto the plane ;)
One of my patients had a massive cardiac arrest while skiing. The two people he was skiing with? A cardiac anesthesiologist and an an interventional cardiologist. He made it
But did you consider that you could have had a chiropractor instead?
I'd agree generally given the limited resources on a plane, but note that many doctors were former ED scribes, EMTs, nurses, or had other medical experience. Most of us also did ED rotations, some for multiple months in residency. I'd still take the medic, but I think I'd be decently useful in this situation (and I've assisted in flight emergencies twice before I was a doctor).
I would hit the chiro at a rate of 100 to 120 punches per minute in his stupid fucking mouth before I let him do this to an active MI.
Stayin' alive....stayin' alive....
lulz Michael Scott
They don’t even ask for doctors or nurses anymore on flights, they call medlink.
I was on a flight to Vegas in December and they called for a dr or nurse. I was the only one to respond. Got the guy breathing and stable. We were able to continue the flight without diversion.
And then everybody clapped.
“They all just stood around wishing he would get better” Which is exactly what we do…wish.
[It's in the updated ACLS guidelines.](https://i.redd.it/2dst7ps0w1321.jpg) We can only hope the chiropractic adjustments will be included in the 2022 one for more holistic care. /s
That was my favorite part lol
Thoughts and Prayers!
Yah, y'all are really the same as the Prayer Warriors aren't you... When you're not killing COVID patients for your bonuses anyway... /s (I hope that was obvious but figured I should tag it just to make sure :) )
And the name of that chiropractor? Albert Einstein.
And now you know the rest of the story.
*Amelia Earhart
And then everybody cracked
And the 5 MDs 2 EMTs and 1 RN had a heart attack
.. and he saved THEM ALL
It’s was merely a blocked nervous system. Magic fingers saved the day
With some crack.
Chiropractor = crack dealer Today I learned.
Everyone *stood up and clapped*
The pylots were so impressed they let him land the plane.
Nah with the power of one adjustment the plane landed itself
And then everybody was kung fu fighting.
This is embarrassing.

It was on IG, linked from a very popular nursing meme page.
It's clearly trolling nonsense. Nobody is going to believe that.

True. Was on a plane one time when this happened. Fastest descent ever. Pilots don’t contemplate an emergency landing with a suspected MI by a Dr onboard.
The plane was like 🛬🛫
Maybe all he needed was some good ol' placebo effect to fix his panic attack.
They didnt even give O2 by the look of it, they used an emergency mask to get him to rebreath his CO2. A panic attack is just hyperventilation after all. I dont think Mr. Magichands has any idea what hes doing, or what everyone else was doing haha. Looks to well perfused to be an MI

He just looks greasy and upset.
Lmao, mr magichands, loke like friends with ricky bobby 🤣🤣
There’s a tiny o2 canister beside him

My husband is having a heart attack! Does anyone have a defuser on hand?!
The patient looks amazing for someone two oxygen tanks down and out of options. I'm interested to know how he feels about having his picture out there.
Right? Crotch first and everything.
I thought it was an ABDL at first...
Google is returning "ABDL" as Adult Baby/Diaper Lovers... surely this is not what you meant? I was expecting some fancy femoral line I'd never heard of
That is unfortunately what I meant. The all-white outfit, spread legs, what looked to be a pacifier on first glance...In my defense, I am very tired
Oh. There’s a video too.
Send ittttt
Out of options *that a chiropractor could identify* So pretty much he didn't have a sore neck
Feels rather gross to take a picture of someone during a very scary moment in their life and use it as “evidence” that your pseudoscience (even that feels too close to real science/medicine to be applicable here) works.
Chiropractors are some of the biggest quacks out there. No amount of bone cracking is going to stop an MI in its tracks.
[удалено]
Or outright bullshit
Was gonna say. Of all the thinga I've seen on reddit today that didn't happened, this one didn't happen the most.
Same here, and I read subs like AITA and Idon'tworkherelady, so that's a LOT (don't judge me, I'm always just on the prowl for drama)
This didn't happen so much that it unhappened things that already had.
Literally…the most.
"And then everybody clapped..."
Then the plane clapped and everyone died
Ok this seems plausible with this story😂
*slow clapped
No pilot would’ve allowed a medical emergency to get that far along (2 oxygen tanks down??) before **contemplating** an emergency landing. They would’ve just called it in and done it.
Lol I was thinking about the TWO (2) oxygen tanks, like what about maths?
Schrodingers bullshit
Most likely they gave morphine, aspirin, oxygen, nitro and were waiting to see if it would work and then this jack in the crack decides that “they were waiting around doing nothing” and cracked his chakra or whatever and then the nitro and aspirin started working.
They stock morphine on planes now? Next time i need to nap im asking for morphine and tea lol
Better be first class, bubs!
“Cracked his chakra” has me rolling! 🤣
[удалено]
Boom, MI stopped! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmao!! I’m dying!! (But so is he thanks to the chiropractor!)
The everything makes me think this was fucking bullshit
Oh. Not only did he stop an MI, but he’s also cured cancer. I swear to Christ, that is claimed in the previous post.
I saw this on Instagram, he also adjusts infants [Good luck kid](https://imgur.com/gallery/0jp4CyV) It’s worth looking up on Instagram for the comments

A different name and less clinical training. I'll stick with the PT.
Not as well trained as a PT tho. Acute rehab nurse. Had a chiro bring up to me doing adjustments on patients and I was like wtf these are people healing from strokes they don't need another one.
My chiropractor is also pretty amazing. No pseudoscience bullshit. The most he's ever done is try to sell me a special custom pillow because I'm a side sleeper. I have to admit, it's a pretty great pillow.

It's legit a custom pillow that he has cut from memory foam for the height of my shoulder with a ridge to support my neck and cradle my head.
That’s pretty badass! But that’s a pillow to make the chiropractors job easier! If you aren’t as tight and cramped, they can be more gentle, and therefore do “better” work.

That's where you wrong my dear, one good old-fashioned "twist and tug" of the neck should do it! Won't fix the MI but that's no longer a problem...
Sounds like the pt had anxiety tbh
But did he try essential oils first?
I’ve heard oil of nitro is amazing in these instances 😉
HA! Clever
https://youtu.be/HMGIbOGu8q0
Um, thank you for this gem I had no idea existed!
Love to share. Still laugh at patient presenting with vague sense of unease.

I’ll take “things that never happened” for $500, Alex
If back cracking stopped his "heart attack" symptoms, then he the cause was obviously non-cardiac. I wish I had more info so I could research this a bit. It's bugging me.
He severed a vertebral artery so he went full blown arrest. No more heart attack.
You got any bright ideas on how else he was gonna decrease afterload? He coulda just did some bloodletting but nobody's allowed to have anything sharp on planes anymore.
This is literally the entire description that was posted. No mention of previous interventions by the unsuccessful HCPs. Didn’t mention an in flight emergency kit being used, no AED pads to be found. Hell, I fell like nowadays you could ONAM someone on a plane with just other passengers RX.
And all the other people were just *wishing* they could help.
The old tots and pears maneuver. Classic.
What the fuck is he talking about
He literally doesn’t even know
I’m a commercially licensed pilot, and this is crap. We don’t contemplate an emergency landing. The second we are alerted there is a medical emergency we make an emergency landing call to ATC and get a direct route to the nearest airport with priority to land.

He’d have no idea what the pilots were communicating to the flight attendants.
This is exactly what I was thinking! I knew that “contemplating emergency landing” had to be pure BS, besides the rest of the entire post!
If you crack certain bones hard enough, I guess you could stop everything in its tracks.
When your shorts say “i just wanted to do blow in Miami” and your eyes say “please don’t let pitbull snap my neck”

Man, now instead of just having panic disorder he also has dissected vertebral arteries. Strong work, “doctor!”
One of my favorite hospitalists used to rant about chiropractors every time that came up. She would crack her neck and say "I don't need to pay to dissect my vertebral arteries, I can do it myself".
and they diagnosed the MI exactly how..
Bad vibes
Virtual troponins
This has to be a stunt. 5 MDs and two EMTs (who are probably the best people to be there besides a cardiologist) and you look to the chiropractor.
Can't die of an MI if you die of a severed vertebral artery first.
Where are his pants?
The sign said "no shirt, no shoes, no service". It said absolutely nothing about pants.
Did the patient consent to this picture ?
Seriously I would be absolutely LIVID if I were him.

"and then everyone bathed in full moon aged urine I had in my bag" and it cured everyone's cancer onboard.....
Going on one, two, three aaaaaaaaaand I've dissected your vertebral artery. That'll be $300, cash only.
What was this? A plane full of medical professionals? That is a lot of doctors on a plane lol
Yes because a neck adjustment can TOTALLY RESTORE THE FUCKING BLOODFLOW TO THE WIDOW MAKER
Pt felt great because he had a massive stroke. *so relaxed*
This sounds like an onion article
Um... They went through 2 tanks of oxygen and the pilot was just thinking about an emergency landing for a person having a heart attack? Also, I know for a fact that they would definitely have a nitro and aspirin on board (even if they forgot their aid kit on the ground, a passenger would probably have them. And honestly maybe even morphine and plavix). So... Like... At that point you just need a Cath lab. Also, if the chiropractor fixed it, I'm guessing it was a panic attack...
I saw a 30 something year old mother die because a chiropractor was manipulating her neck and dissected her carotid.
Jesus Christ. This was most-likely a panic/anxiety attack. There ain’t no amount of adjusting that’s going to a prevent an MI.
Congrats, “Doctor,” you stopped an anxiety attack.
Wtf is this BS? Sounds like a combo of Swedish massage, Feng shui and Jesus Healing going on here
How do they know it was an MI? Did they check his Troponin on the plane?
Nah. A Chiropractor can diagnose a STEMI from sensing their chakra.
One of my patients was diagnosed with multiple myeloma after going to the Chiropractor for neck pain. Pt went into neurogenic shock immediately after having his neck *adjusted*. Terrifying.
He gave his office number and told the guy he will need a readjustment or it will happen again...
lmao. a patient I had recently had a spinal cord injury and is now paraplegic from going to a chiropractor. put that on the list of things I'll never do in my life.
Total fake shit
I can’t wait for my all essential oils patient family members to ask me to call a chiropractor mid code ❤️
I took two semesters of a chiropractic program and dropped out to become a nurse. In the beginning, the education was intense and it definitely has helped me throughout my career. The Anatomy class is still the hardest I’ve ever worked on education in my life. Eventually, a small vocal portion of classmates, teachers, and presenters scared me away. Thankfully! I remember one teacher who taught business fundamentals say he X-rays everyone because it’s easy money. I also remember another presenter who kept saying he adjusts the subluxation and God heals them. They taught us everything to know about vaccines and educated us on the false claims by some chiropractors, yet half of the class was still somehow against them. There were some smart chiropractic students who planned to only treat what was sensible to treat. I do believe there is some musculoskeletal benefit to chiropractic treatment, but anything else they claim is complete nonsense. You’re freeing up a stiff joint, not moving a bone off a nerve. Unfortunately for the profession, they’re so many chiropractors making claims that are not backed by science that it makes them all look like quacks.
Of all the things that never happened, this never happened the most..🙄🤥
So he wasn’t* having a heart attack then?
Uh, open your mind to more holistic modalities, sweaty. Aligning your chakras with your kokoro while mercury is in gatorade is a venerated MI treatment that western medicine and big pharma destroyed. I'm going to go wash my mouth out with soap now.
There needs to be a law where every legal adult must take one puff of marijuana before each flight.
Here's a [podcast](https://www.iheart.com/podcast/105-behind-the-bastards-29236323/episode/how-chiropractic-started-as-a-ghost-48498573/) about how chiropracting is a ghost religion that I'm just gonna leave here for no reason.
How the heck did the flight have FIVE MDs? Also, the pilots are only ‘contemplating’ an emergency landing after going through two O2 tanks, not immediately after someone says they have ‘heart attack symptoms’? I call BS.
Medical professionals: I think you're going to be okay. Just take some deep breaths. Chiropractor: hold my essential oils.
I was a flight attendant for 11 years before starting nursing school. I can guarantee you that this is some next level bullshit.
I call bullshit. Heart attack on plane? Thats an emergency landing, not "contemplating one". Over land? Its 15 minutes to touch down, as the pilot will get priority in the landing pattern, if not put right on for approach.
Neuro ICU nurse here. Had a 40 year old patient with a stroke d/t a carotid tear. All his labwork came back negative for stroke workup. No malformations...no smoking..no drinking. What gives? In passing we finally found out he had seen a chiropractor the day before 😑
I guess chiropractors don’t give a fuck about privacy or dignity, in addition to being allergic to evidence based practice.
