greg c,

Thanks for info buddy, things are becoming much clearer now.

I had no idea that Versed was in the benzodiazepine class of meds. When I looked it up years ago they had it catorgorized as a "hypnotic drug". Not sure of the real difference between the two categories. The doctor that pushed the Versed had given me a bolus of something sometime before the procedure. I cannot remember how far in advance it was given to me before the push of Versed. I automatically thought it would of been something like either Valium or Lorazepam which we both know are Benzo's. I beleive the goal of the pre-med was to get me to relax because I really did told them I felt great after seeing the Defib get pushed in. You know just like in Monty Python & The Holy Grail: "Bring out your dead! I am not dead, I am filling better now!" I think they thought that I was not going to cooperate and run off as I was not in any distress other than feeling like I could out run a Cheetah.

Funny how he could of pushed more meds to make me forget that it had all happened and didn't (?).

I had no intentions of suing the doctor as he is a freind of mine. Doctor's have it ruff these days just like us Cops. Everybody expects nothing short of working miracles, being patient, take the abuse, don't ever make any mistakes, and remember you probably will get sued at least once in your career for doing your job!
