Arrow 911 - levodopa carbidopa and tactacardia



I am not well at all - my spiraling down
started with injuring my sciatic nerve by falling many times
my life is turned to pain - and now my meds have caused me to start having
tactacardia...
cant live with em - cant live without them???
last er trip - is the last time I will call 911
such cruel treatment - unbelievable - unable to speak - mouth seems frozen
ER doc yells at me - whats wrong?
i tried to speak was laughed at by the er nurses or immature techs...
then the doctor looks at me, and yells - you arent helping me???????????????
and with this my last post...
if you live in a 3 neurologist town, I would suggest moving while you are still well...
I live alone - so next time my heart races to 200 beats, tactacardia...
I will not call 911 - I will pray...
my race to finish - is clearly done.

I am soooooooooooooo upset - I feel crushed
they gave me benedryl - because I am allergic to so many pain killers
I thought the benedryl was going to make me sick to my stomach
then having zero levodopa/carbidopa I was shaking of which the nurses should have checked me - not at heartlandhospital in st joseph, mo?
I was sweating profusely -and they put warm blankets on me...
I finally had a friend get me water, so I could get somerelief from an 25/100
instant sinemet in my purse -and movement started again so that I could move...what a huge blessing my friend was!
the technician walked in and told me you cant have the water! I will have to ask the doctor for pills? and I said weakly - my voice hoarse and dry
I want this IV removed from my arm now!
She retorted I will have to ask the doctor?
and I said the best I could - I am checking out of here - on my own ...
she brought the papers to me quickly and I was put in a wheel chair, and lifted to the car, and carried back into my house...
my dear - I thought to myself -if I was old with PD would they have given me abit better care ?

I dont know the answer, but that day --- was soooooooooooooo horrid,
I wont call 911
not in saint joseph mo...
why?
they always say - you are in end stages of PD, we can do nothing for you?
frozen to the bed - horrible!

Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant with the weak and the wrong. Sometime in your life you will have been all of these.
