Went to the ER yesterday after passing out in the MD office because some other jerkwad gave me pills that were bad for me, yet he kept insisting that I take them. So, I get to the ER where they tried exactly ONCE to get an IV ONCE! decided they couldnt get a line, and then some giantjerkwad came in and gave me a lecture on screwing a line into my bone for IV hydration he was "not going to play with me" EXCUSE ME?? I said "can I just have a glass of water?" im not vomiting, and I dont see why we cant do this the old fashioned way. He agreed, and brought me TWO glasses of water. and I never saw another glass of water again. NOT ONE nurse came and offered me water, or relief. NOT ONE!

It went from bad to worse when I was ignored, passed by and treated like I just wanted a day off from work. IM RETIRED! I could have gone home, slept in a comfy bed and lounged all day! I asked for something for my migraine and was treated like I asked for morphine. The MD quickly shuffled over and gave me the dangers of narcotics talk. REALLY?? Did I ask for narcs?? if I want narcs I will go home! I have several varieties to choose from there! can I have an advil? Stupid stupid stupid! Not once did I create a scene, act out or even hint that I was going to be a bad girl. The ER was empty and I was the easiest patient there. I wanted to go home, but the cardio doc said NO! he demanded all sorts of tests.

Called the cardio guy today to make follow up and they said "how did you like that iv boost?" I said WHAT IV BOOST?!" He was VERY upset! he is rattling all sorts of bars and wants me to do the same. he is livid that I was treated so badly after HE personally sent me with a hand ful of specific instructions and he expected them to be followed. So, I have been given instructions to GET UM!

Dont you hate when you need help and get treated like you are either faking, wasting their time, not worthy of their time, in their way, making a big deal out of nothing, or they act like UGH! do I really have to take care of her? Like you pooped your pants and they have to change you or something? Why did they go into medicine? I swear I wanted to smack a few of those girls yesterday. They were ugly with me! That was uncalled for.

anyone else tired of this?
