Oh wow, sorry I missed the comment above about the ER. Go to a different ER. If you are in pain they should be at a minimum giving medications by IV for it.
@captivated The abdominal pain is more of a dull and sore pain. I think that's why he said I wasn't pregnant and good to go. But what about my fever, kidney pain, throwing up blood. Something obviously is not right.
Exactly. That's why I say to go back. How did they not do blood pressure and temp? It is a requirement at every ER. You go to triage, explain what's going on, get vitals, go back and wait to get called for a room. I don't get how that didn't happen.
They called me to triage asked me what was wrong put a pulse ox on my finger and sent me back out to the waiting room where I sat for 2 hours. Then they put me in a room one nurse came in and asked me what was wrong, wrote my answers on a brown paper napkin and left. Another nurse came in and asked me what was wrong and my pain level, didn't write anything down. She was walking out and the dr walked in. He proceded to ask me what was wrong, I told him, he asked me if I have ever had bronchitis, I said yes many years ago. He looked in my eyes, ears and poked my stomach and back. Then said well your not pregnant and your color looks good so your good to go, walking out the door of my room saying someone will bring your discharge papers in. All of this in the room stuff only took 15-20 minutes.
@Mama_Kat Oh triage asked me to pee in a cup. That answers that I'm not. But I don't know where he got any other answers. Sorry I'm not feeling well and now a bit annoyed. Lol
@trixiesmom8 Thank you, I thought maybe it had just been so long since I had been to one maybe this was the "new" way. Like we hear with so many other things about life. Lol
Nope..that is one thing for sure is not right. They def should've taken your temp and blood pressure. Every hospital does..heck they did it even after I had my lo, they would come wake me up for that crap!
@Mama_Kat Yes although I have never met him, and I have live here for a little over 2 years. I plan on going to him on Monday. Just going to try and rest alot today.
@captivated only for my regular baby check up and to have my last daughter. I haven't even meet my primary care doctor and we have lived here for a little over 2 years. Maybe I haven't been to the dr enough lmao!!! I don't like going to the dr for sick visits unless I absolutely have to.
@trixiesmom8 I know right. This same hospital did that to me when I had my daughter, they were great and we loved the staff even though they drove us nuts and we didn't get much sleep.
@kayleigh27 I got the Dr's name but not all the nurses. That's what my nurse friend suggested too.
@angel26 Yeah I know I am going to try and wait it out till Monday so I can see my dr.

Yep he looked in my eyes and ears poked my stomach and back. Told me I was not pregnant and good to go.
I have a 102 fever, vomiting blood at least once a day, no blood vaginally, my kidneys are killing me, with a migraine so bad I can't see straight.
Nope they didn't even take my temp, blood pressure, or anything. Cause my color looks good. Wtf do that have to do with anything
