chapter3

By the time the orderlies got House down to get an mri, ct and an x-ray. He was in dire pain.

He wrote I need pain medicine .

The orderlie went to get a nurse .The nurses name was Jill .

She said "how bad is the pain".

House wrote over a ten.

Jill said "Well, i'll have to page Dr.Wilson and he will have to come down here and see what to do in the meantime ."She suddenly stopped and said"We will have to page Dr.Cuddy".

House wrote why?

She said"Just lie still and don't move because your pulse ox is 70 on 100 ." Jill said "Get Cuddy or Wilson down here now!"

Jill then starts bagging him fast it is called hyperventalition.She is trying to get his stats to 80.She does this for ten minutes before

Wilson shows up and asks what happend.

Jill replied"Well' he was in alot of pain and I was going to page you then his stats dropped to 70 and I started hypervenalitioning him."

Wilson said "Well , what are his stats now?"

Jill answered"Still at 70."

Wilson said "Well lets get him back to his room."Wilson bent down and got right down into Houses face and said "It's going to be ok buddy , we'll figure out what is wrong with you."

Wilson leaned up witha tear in his eye and thought to himself.He must be in alot of pain, he is crying and he only did that once during the infartion.So it must be bad.

Then they got House back into his room and back on the vent.His stats went to 73 on 100.

Wilson said "House we are bringing the x-ray up here so we can get a good look at what is going on in your lungs."

House gave a very weak thumbs up.

Wilson said"Ok, take it easy.You can't write now so let's do it this way blink once for yes,twice for no understand?"

He blinked once .

Wilson said" Good, are you still in alot of pain?"

House blinked once.

Wilson said "Leg and chest ."

House blinked three times.

It took Wilson a minute to figure out what he meant."Oh, it hurts in your chest but more in your leg."

He blinked once.

Wilson said "Well, i'll be right back with your pain meds."He blinked once for yes.

Wilson went to get the medicine and ran into Cuddy.She told him that Houses team was there.

Wilson said"Good tell them to see what the x-ray showed and that it was just taken."

Cuddy said "WHAT! He has been down there for two hours."

Wilson said "No,he was down there 20 minutes and then his 02 stats bottomed out at 70 and now it's only 73.So we need to figure out what is wrong with his lungs now.
