In reply to the discussion: woman diagnosed with rupturing ectopic pregnancy. TX hospital told her to go home and wait [View all]liberalhistorian
(20,822 posts)who refuses to properly treat a woman with an ectopic pregnancy and claims that the pregnancy is still viable should, at the very least, be permanently stripped of his or her medical license, if not criminally charged! It is very basic medical knowledge that ectopic pregnancies are NEVER viable, will very likely cause death if not properly treated, and that there is simply no way at this time to reimplant the embryo in the uterus, like too many dipshit repubs seem to believe.
If an actual medical doctor refuses to acknowledge this, then they should be permanently barred from ever practicing medicine again. Period.
I'm reminded of an idiotic Ohio Republican state legislator who proposed a bill to require the reimplantation of an ectopic embryo into the uterus, instead of "killing the baby", as he put it. One of the major physicians in the state had to patiently explain to him and his fellow dipshit gyneticians (politicians who think they know more than doctors about women's bodies) over and over that "reimplantation" simply just wasn't possible.
