  1. I work in Retina and we had a patient brought in from county jail in shackles due to a retinal detachment from being in a fight. He was brought in a few weeks after the fight and had lost partial vision the day after the fight. Nevertheless, he had surgery and was brought into his appointments within the 90 day period. The look of other patients faces when he would walk in was pure terror. But the guy was in jail for petty crimes. So harmless, but a trouble maker. Overall, he regained most of his vision but still won’t see perfect even with glasses on. Luckily they didn’t wait like this guy.

  2. So there's no way to talk to the outside? Or have a visitor or like no phonecalls alowed for 2months? Like there is no way to put pressure from someone on the outside? (Not from the US, so I have no clue how that shit works)

  3. Prisoners make up medical problems so often that a real one comes along and nobody believes it. They’ll even claim that they swallowed razor blades just so that they have to be taken to the hospital. Sucks all the way around.

  4. The more I learn about prison, the more I realize the military treated us damn near the same as inmates.
    Guys almost died at my command because the "doctor" on board said they're fine even though they repeatedly asked for medical attention. One guy had to get emergency helo extracted out of there because he was slowly suffocating due to so much swelling in the throat. Dependents get treated ok, only because they didn't sign their life away.

  5. When I was in Prison due to us not being allowed showers for almost a month, I developed really bad Ringworm on the insides of my legs. Then the Water went out in our rooms making it worse for almost a week. I went to Sick Call Dozens of Times Looking to get help with this and they did the same things. It was not until I got released that I was able to finally get rid of it.

  6. Let's be serious here. I'm 100% sure that there are quite a few inmates who are in fact constantly looking for attention or trying to dodge work or other things by faking injuries or illnesses. Even outside of prison especially older people when they are lonely they fake illnesses to talk to someone.

    So it's not surprising that doctors and nurses are not taking it seriously. And that goes especially if you're doing your job in a prison and you're dealing mostly with scumbags who you'd probably want to rot in hell anyway.

  7. I had my autistic close friend die in prison (picked him up falsly before his court date) from medical neglect . They left him in his cell while he plead for help. A week later, found dead. Crazy how much this happens

  8. I know someone in prison who almost died last year because his gall bladder went bad. He tried to get seen for abdominal pain for weeks until he went septic. He was in the hospital for three weeks recovering. The prison system is not where you want to get sick.

  9. The employees of a prison deal with the worst of the worst, he was probably smoking tunchi like all of the junkie white boys in prison, he was probably detoxing from it so they just thought he was trying to get attention or meds from that.
