A New Guess Who

[Guest]

The one of the right should be fairly obvious. Who is the person on the left?
Hint: The picture was taken in Little Rock last week.

 

[Ross]

I know the face, but I'm just not there. I'm guessing Oaktree? Looks like she's keeping you in check, so it has to be!

 

[Guest]

The Ross-man wins!!!

 

[Ross]

What do I win, what do I win? I never win anything!

 

[Bina]

The only person I could think of in Little Rock, Arkansas was Oaktree.
Whatever Ross wins...... I want some too!

Al's hint was a big one. I attended his seminar, and it was very informative. Enjoyed lunch with him as well.

Al is the man is he not? I know I enjoyed my time at dinner with him. Hope if we do it again, I'll take him somewhere a little nicer, but it will be noisier too.

 

[Guest]

You guys win a meal the next time I'm in Canton.

*raises eyebrow curiously*

It will be noisier because of you two....or the crowd at the nicer place in general?




Glad you two got to meet up, Al and Oaktree!

Better food, not that what we had was bad, but there's nicer places to go. I wanted to meet him at Perkins because it's one place you don't have to shout at each other to hear what the other is saying. Most of the rest of the places around that area are like that, very noisey.

So did you hear any surprises or new info you can pass along? How nice that you got to meet The Yoda of Warfarin in person! (And I'm talking intelligence - not looks!)

 

[Guest]

I'm talking looks NOT intelligence!

The bioggest surprise was for the waitress who commented that she had never taken a picture of two men before!!

Yeah she did look kind of startled huh?

 

[Ross]

Remember, he was talking to a group of warfarin managers. Several times in several different ways, he made the point that it is better to be a bit above range than a bit below, and at those times, I felt kind of a thick silence in the room.

That's not good.

I would much rather put a tourniquet on my arm to stem the blood loss than lose my speech or my life. Maybe they're worried about hemorrhagic stroke though.

 

[Guest]

Oaktree is right. That is pretty much the way many health care professionals see it.

 

[Duff Man]

well I guess we have to work within the constraints of the IQ's of the jurists, don't we?

 

[Ross]

Nope. If the jury doesn't get it, do it yourself.

One of the things Al said at the conference, and I'm paraphrasing, is that we're giving this drug for the express purpose of preventing clots, so lets give enough of the drug to do that. If we don't prevent clots, then there was no reason to give the drug at all, we did not help the patient, and the whole thing was a waste.

Blood is what they are frightened of. Blood is gastly! Blood is messy! Blood must stay in the body at all costs. Coumadin threatens them because it may possibly cause them to see blood! . Strokes aren't nearly as messy.

I know this was tongue in cheek, but many really do see bleeding as a worse outcome - for themselves - than a stroke. They have to deal with the blood. Most don't have to deal with a stroke.
