You are lucky on the fast in-out. When I slashed my hand, finished my work which took about 2 hours than sat in the ER for another 4.5 hrs before seeing a Dr. Dr. has the gall to tell me they don't stitch up wounds after 6 hrs for fear of infection. They stitched it anyways........

Ever notice that when you do a thing like that you have to pee? And you're short one hand now? Finger looks cool, tell youir pals you were in a sword fight...with a turkey.

I cut myself like that on glass once right through the pad on the tip of my finger, I was amazed at how much it actually bled. I lucked out and was in and out of a walk in center within an hour. I have other friends who have sat with their cut wrapped up for hours. Glad to hear you go out quickly. I am sure its a Thanksgiving you wont forget.

If it happens again and the doc says six hours call me, I don't charge nearly as much as the doc would. And the cut would look better.
