Isn't there is a "Flipper" Discount at most NW Ohio/SE Michigan ER's. You just need to mention that you're a "Friend of Flippers" and there's an automatic 15% discount.... plus you get free coffee and donuts during your visit.

A dislocated joint is no laughing matter...you shredded most of the connective tissue then?
Are they going to do surgery?

I'm hoping that 2011 will break my three year streak of getting knifed...

i got "lucky". It popped out and back in with no tears. my wifes a pt and as she explains it i cant move it because the muscles around it are guarding. Everything got stretched but nothing shredded per the xrays. the problem with everything getting streched is it stretches easier then...so i may be makig similar posts in the future. will have to do physical therapy to avoid it.
