responsibilites
I am a retired LVN. I am now disabled. 4 CVA's leaving me with numerous neurological problems AND the need for supplemental 02.

I was pulled over by the Texas DPS. I had not been drinking and have witnesses. I did however explain that I could not perform the test having only 20% lung capacity. I also could not do the heel to toe walk test. I was taken to jail with my 02 in hand. I was telling the jail nurse that I would be out of 02. I began telling him 2 hours before I knew I would run out. He kept telling me that it was my problem and not his. To make a long story short I ran out of 02. After 20 minutes I passed out. I revived sometime later after I was recieving 02.

I'd like some second opinions. I have an attorney and my doctor to handle the DWI accusation. Even innocent I must go thru the chain of the courts. What I would like to know is your opinion on the jail nurse not securing me 02 before I ran out.

Personally I think he was negligent. I would have never in a million years allowed that to happen to anyone on my watch.

What do you guys think? Should I file a complaint with the state board of nursing?
