what would you do for an acute problem that popped up when your dr is closed? Lay there in excruciating pain unable to move waiting for a call back, or go to the ER?Smarties wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2019 9:45 amAnonymous 2 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2019 9:44 amat THAT time, yes, she needed an ER....but since they treated her like shit, she should call her pcp
We can only go forward. My advice is what she should do now. And to he honest I'd have gone to an orthopedic or PCP to start with.
The emergency room couldnt help me
this is what concerns me. Sometimes organ failure can manifest as back pain. It worries me for herAnonymous 3 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2019 9:47 am She very well might need an ER. My gall bladder had ruptured and it felt like lower back pain.

She said she went yesterday. I assume her doc was open at some point yesterday. Mine would have seen me, so that's what I would have done. I don't understand the purpose of trying to make this an argument. Are you trying to make this an argument? Because that's what it seems like.
I don't really have a pcp. I go to a clinic and get assigned a different doctor everytime and because i was in good health i rarely went.Last visit was a physical last year.
Asking you a direct question is now arguing???

ERs are not there to diagnose all conditions, they are there to rule out emergencies. They are correct that an x ray wouldn’t be profoundly helpful.
You need to follow up with your PCP. That’s the person who should be doing a non-emergent work up, not the ER.

then you need to call the clinic and let them know what's going on, and DEMAND an appt ASAP -- let them knowthe ER did nothing for youAnonymous 1 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2019 10:03 amI don't really have a pcp.
