Well. . .

That was uneventful.

Ten hours in the "Fast Track" admitting waiting room later, with no consultation, and not so much as an ETA, Our Hero, with Heroine in tow, said "Fuck it," and went to dinner.

If anything suspicious comes back, I'm beating a path to a -different- ER. There were people in much more obvious pain than I was who had been there an hour and a half longer. Nice.

Jesus, I hope you're OK. I have three words for you: Malpractice.

you need "practice" to have malpractice, tho, eh?

Er, that's Charity for you. Since it's free, they make people wait unless they're spurting blood.

Glad to hear you're feeling better. I think if it were appendicitis you'd be dying about now. Could be that it was a stomach flu of some sort.

well, there was a guy -leaking- blood who came in about two hours after i did who was still waiting around.

maybe it's just me, but when they go an hour and a half between admittances [which is what happened from 4-530], something ain't right.

i'm damn glad my condition didn't get worse while i was waiting around. when i bailed, i said to the girl at the desk, "All right, you win, I feel better." *grr*

as a matter of fact, i feel -great- this morning. looking forward to seeing y'all for deceased meat on saturday *s*

You should complain. However if you were waiting with the NHS you would still be there.

Heh... when I had to take Alan to the emergency room earlier this year, we purposely went to a surburban hospital. We "only" had to wait about 4 hours then. :P

Sorry about the waste of a day, but glad to hear you're feeling better.
