It happens, doc.  Double-check and make sure no line segment is less than 1/32".  

...also check for overlapping lines.

have a look at this zoomed image of your drawing. You can see that there are areas of self intersection or tangent that is not allowed....

Workflow: 

1. Google searched and found "medic+snake+3ds+sketch.skp" (Sketchup).
2. Imported it into AutoCAD using the ImportSKP Add-In.
3. Imported this AutoCAD drawing into Revit Generic Model Template.
4. In Plan View, started Extrusion command and in Sketch mode I used Pick Lines + Tab key to select multiple line segments at a time.   Pretty quick and painless.  

I could have also just Imported the SKP directly into the Revit Family environment, saved the Family and called it a day.  

Comme ci, comme ça.
