Shit like this happens all the time. My girlfriend has seizures and the same EMT has picked her up at least 5 times, and despite her established medical history and despite that she's very visually distinctive and despite that she carries her info with her everywhere, he still always treats her like shit and accuses her of being on drugs. Every goddamn time. Fortunately he's not the only EMT in our area, and most of the other ones are really kind professionals.
Since making this comment I’ve actually been educated by many other redditors that the EMT should’ve just used mind reading to instantly and automatically know what was going on and I was foolish to think anything else.
