In Canada, you would know better, as to the speed and manner of ER care you get there. The ER here has greatly improved.

Feel better..
The wait in the ER here is at min of 8 hrs..and if they have a neuro on staff is another thing..

i hope by monday that you will feel a bit better.
that sounds like a very frustrating system.
if your sx's get too severe or too concerning it's best to go to the ER.
but i really understand how hard it is to but up with a long wait.

please let us know how you are.
