It happened this evening at around 4:45 pm today 15-02-16 at EMMANUEL SHOPPING COMPLEX opposite diamond bank Rumuokwurusi Port Harcourt. The young man had a crisis inside the complex and was quickly carried to a good location outside the complex where he could have fresh air. I guess as soon as he had the crisis he indicated that he has an inhaler, as I saw a young man struggling to administer the device on him. However due to ignorance/inexperience he struggled without success. He kept positioning the inhaler in the nose area, kept pressing but nothing came out even though the patient kept opening his mouth to receive the gas. The more time was wasted, the more the patient was loosing strength and at a point he did not move again. However someone suggested we buy a new inhaler, and luckily there was a pharmacy very close by. In less than one and a half minute we got the inhaler. Then someone shouted from inside, put it in his mouth, as soon as we did. The guy got strength from no where, jacked up and threw up everything blocking the airways. Almost immediately he wanted to stand up, but we had to assist him to sit down and rest against the wall. Then the young man requested for water. You can see him drinking the water. Showing he is now very conscious. Trust me, if we had not gotten a new inhaler, if we had kept administering the inhaler in his nose instead of the mouth, I doubt if he would have made it. But thanks be to God who helped us to revive this young man. Note: Experience would have told us that the inhaler had been fully exhausted hence no gas was forth coming, as the part being pressed remained stiff. The inhaler was meant to be administered in the mouth and not in the nose. With this experience, I strongly recommend that asthmatic patients move around with a new inhaler in addition to the one they are currently using, in case the old one finishes, the new one would be handy and highly useful should any crisis arise. Do you have a similar experience you would like to share or medical experts in this house, lets add a bit to this so as to help this campaign. Please, I beg the moderators, lets help to raise this awareness. Lol. Make una no take me laugh oooh , I just need this thread to hit the Front Page ni, who knows whose live this awareness could save next. Nairalanders, God is helping us in no small ways to be change agents and people of influence. God bless us all. 21 Likes 5 Shares

Did you inform him before putting up his pictures on nairaland? Will he be happy if he find out? You've helped him. Good. You want to share it? OK, share without pictures even if it doesn't hit FP, moreover, you won't be paid for hitting FP but someone like me might charge you for putting up my picture in an embarrassing way in a public forum. LastBullet: Lalasticlala, delete the pictures asap. 68 Likes 4 Shares |

Rule No 10: Don't violate the privacy of any people e.g. by posting their private pics, info, or chats without permission. Can't you tell the story without the pictures, or better still, censor his face? Amebo OP, lemme call Uncle seun for you. 14 Likes 1 Share |

Wow , never met one before. However, I've once seen an Okada rider with epilepsy. He knew the thing was about to start and he had barely park the bike when he fell down and started 'jacking' on the ground 'till he stopped moving. No one could touch him, he was out cold for about 10min. or so (thought the guy don die self) before he regained consciousness. When he woke up, he was just acting like a drunk, people had to hold him down just to calm his body. 1 Like 1 Share |

It's a good thing he is alive, incidents like this really opens one eyes to how far Nigeria still is. That's how the fire alarm went off in a bank the other day, I was surprised to see people looking in confusion as to what sound that was, the annoying thing was even that the bank didn't have an emergency exit, they were looking for the key to their backdoor, I just weak. 1 Like |

This is wickedness, your fellow human being was seriously down and all you could do was to take pictures and post on Nairaland. Thank Jah you were not the only person around when this fellow was down in this situation because what just did would have been the same the moment you saw him falling instead of thinking on how to resuscitate him. this what most of us do with our iPhone 10.
