FINALLY SOMEONE WITH BRAINCELLS! There are so many people arguing about having to wait a while with their painful injuries like broken arm or open wound and complaining about being seen after someone with chest pain. They could literally be having a heart attack.

Thank you finally someone that gets it!

Was front of line once not fun, never mind waiting now.

Or sadly they just plain forgot. That is the worst thing to happen. I was in the ER having a acute appendicitis. Went in at 530am. Didn't get operated on until 7pm. Was behind a emergency C section. But apparently I was forgotten about because my brother asked a doctor for an update on how much longer and when he did and they clarified them my room, he told me their faces went pale and asked him in a worried voice "he's still there?" My brother went yep. Shortly after that I was brought in to get operated on. Shit happens. But man please dont tell me after the fact that "we got it just in time" (before it explodes) when you forgot about the patient. I found out later in recovery that they forgot about me.

Right? I encountered a Karen who went to the ER with a HEAD COLD, on a Money of all days, and expected to be seen before everyone else because she was pregnant. And there I was in unimaginable pain with what I didn't know yet was a burst ovarian cyst, patiently waiting my several hours for a bed. How rude of me to be before her.

Yea, the only time I've been to and ER I've gotten straight through... head injuries and falling asleep or massive open wound bleeding everywhere... never had to wait then.

I'm very glad to hear they responded promptly, sepsis is no joke. I hope he is okay!

Lesson of the story: Never good to see a group of doctors and nurses running for you in an EMERGENCY! I am so happy for your husband!!! 👍👍👍

Umm a doubt what's sepsis

Same thing happened to my mom after getting a hysterectomy. She felt sick and she was waiting to see if it was gonna go away. But then a night she decided to go and turns out she was septic and could've died so I'm glad she went.

@@ok6114 to put it very, very simply, it's when you get an infection and your body freaks out and starts attacking itself while trying to clear the infection.

Ah my grandad was in a very similar situation. He had suffered 26 heart attacks in his life and he was in hospital after a stroke and he was sat in a hallway on a bed for hours where he ironically bumped into my uncles partner who was there for some routine tests thankfully we have the NHS here in the UK and don't have to pay for our healthcare but unfortunately the government treats them like shit and even after a pandemic in which they saved our PM's life after be was diagnosed with COVID all they got in return was a clap for carers thing, painting some post boxes or something blue and a 1% pay rise as well as trying to sell it to the US and privatise it making it inaccessible for the people that need it. (I've been visually impaired since birth basically and have had routine eye tests, an eye surgery when I was 8 and many appointments and stuff when I was younger bc I had a wonky eye so had we been living in America the amount we'd have to pay in medical bills would be astronomical) It's a slap in the fucking face for them

So happy he made it out, my dad didn't 😔 Cherish every moment with him 💗

That's why I keep a fully charged battery pack in my purse at all time. So no matter where I'm waiting I can still use it.

My ex husband, an er dr, died because he didn’t get to the er fast enough! He was always prone to nosebleeds, not a big problem, but this time he was on blood thinners and so the bleeding wouldn’t stop. He bled out before he made it to the hospital. If his wife had insisted that he go earlier, he’d be alive today and my kids would still have their father. He, being a dr, should have known better!

I remember I wanted to avoid the ER so badly that one time I cut down to my bone on my foot and decided to just wrap it up and that it would be a better Idea to wait until 6 in the morning the next day because less people would be there.

@@marthathomae547The fact that you are asking that question proves why wait times in ER take too long......

Truth! My local hospital ignored my warning signs and high risk(I had had a baby less than 12 hours before the symptoms appeared) discharged me with a Pulmonary Embolism. Back 13 hours later via ambulance. My 4 day old baby was almost orphaned. Same hospital 2 years later. I come in with the same symptoms. I sit there 7 hours. I pass out holding my now 2 year old. Boom. Another, massive Pulmonary Embolism. Lifelong blood thinners now at 28

I'm so sorry...

Most times the ER gets it wrong, they're barely trained, understaffed, and told to push patients back out on the street once they're not likely to be sued.

ER staff are dickheads sometimes

@@wolfrig2000 hahah barely trained???? Your kidding right??

I also something simillar, some form of virus attacked my stomach and i couldnt stop throwing up. They placed me on an ER bed in the lobby with 3 other kids, checked me, left me there for a while and then tried to send me home. The moment i got to the door i fell down and started throwing up again, they immediatly gave me a room, liquids, and told me to not eat nor drink. Tbh the food the morning after was literally the best lmao.

Didn't have a virus but I had broken my wrist. Luckily both of the bones that I broke stayed inside, but my wrist was obviously not supposed to be twisted like it was and I got to jump ahead of some people. It Wasn't a good day, especially because I got there around 7:00 pm, had to go to another hospital that was about 30 minutes away (with my wrist just wrapped in compression wrap) and then when I got there they put me under and set my wrist into place and casted it. I got discharged from the hospital at 4:00 am.

I wasn’t able to breathe literally like no air still had to wait ten min later the doctor said my oxygen dropped so low I could have suffered permanent brain damage

Omg 😂

So one time recently I went to the ER bc I had an asthma attack and I couldn't breathe and by the time they got to me they said I was fine💀 but I now have to take 2 inhalers each day twice a day so yeah that sucks 👁️👄👁️

Idk it made me sad when he said he didnt want to deal with the uninsured.. it's really hard to get insurance even through the state ... and if your poor its boarder line impossible

@@yoakleoakle he never said that, he really said that no one else wants to deal with uninsured people, so the ER has to, even if it’s unnecessary.

Same

@Yoakleoakle The problem isn’t that people are uninsured (doctors and nurses get paid either way) but because they have no where else to go people come to ER with non life threatening problems that could be handled at a normal doctor’s office. The ER that I worked at (as a janitor) was constantly understaffed and overworked even with just the life threatening emergencies. I understand what he said sounded harsh and I understand that people can’t always pay for a normal doctor, but please know that the health care workers (or at least the ones I worked with) want to help everyone but the care for patients who are in critical care take up large amounts of people and supplies. This means that there may be only one nurse to care for 5-10+ non emergency patients by themselves while the others are trying to save someone who has been stabbed multiple times making it incredibly stressful for everyone involved including the patients who have to wait hours just to see a nurse. I hope this helps 🙂

@@AF-zu2py Thank you for helping to educate us 😊I appreciate people who work to open up this information to everyone

Right! Like it's not a restaurant!

Thirty years ago, I was rushed to the emergency room with a heart attack. The world stopped for me. As soon as I was stable, the medical personnel moved on to others until there was a room available.

Sounds like you had cellulitus like I had not nice glad you're OK now though

I'm very happy you're alright, but remember that sometimes an illness can be invisible in some ways and their severity level may not be accurately assessed. sure, maybe they've been there too long because the nurse is correct in thinking they just had a bad Taco Tuesday, but what if instead they're dying of sepsis and each minute is lowering their survival chances? try not to underestimate that those without clear outward signs of emergency aren't in peril

Sounds like your incision dehisced. That happened to me after an intestinal resection surgery, and it was not fun. They had to reopen the wound and scrape everything out-- it was painful! I'm glad you're okay now.

As long as i am patient i am patient

Once you're a body you will be very patient lol

no matter how messed up i am, i try to be a patient patient because i've been in the ER long enough to know what they have to deal with

Drill sarges. The only time where it's a good thing to take that kind of disrespect lol.

Yep, not uncommon for someone to not mentally register stress while having a panic attack.

The same thing happened to me a few times. I sometimes have heart palpitations so after having my heart and blood pressure checked it was determined that those palpitations were caused by my anxiety.

SAME, i went to the er a few weeks ago bc i noticed that my heart area hurt and started going really fast at times and they ran a bunch of tests and it was from panic attacks😫😫

Same!!

Facts, personally I am very conscious person when it comes to my mental condition, I have no reason to be stressed my body just decides to be for no reason! Fun fact: I have adhd. That works the with dopamine sensors and adrenaline, u can have sensory issues from adhd, bells in schools, certain frequencies and all that. The bells at school physically hurt, my body doesn't handle stress well and doesn't know when to kick in adrenaline either. This sucks

I think it was my uncle but I dont remember. My dad told me that back in the day when he was fixing his car he got stabbed in the stomach with a screwdriver. He simply pulled it out filled the whole in with paper, fixed the car and than drove himself to the hospital. People back than are much stronger than most of us.

@@robertrutter8412 there are still people like that. You just don't hear about it because media is sensationalist.

Didnt bitch or complain because the guy next to me was in a car accident and was looking like he died 6 times over but he somehow wasn't complaining "maybe he was dead I'm not sure".

@@TahtahmesDiary … so you go to urgent care or a walk in clinic or go to a doctor that doesn’t require insurance. You have no clue what you’re talking about.

@@radicalxedward8047 I'd say you're the one that doesn't know anything. If you don't have health insurance then you have to pay upfront to be seen at a walk in clinic, urgent care, or just a regular doctor. If someone doesn't have health insurance then most likely they also don't have the money to be seen at a doctors office. At least hospitals you don't have to pay upfront and can even get the sliding scale fee. There are some doctors offices that allow walk-ins without paying upfront but usually they're so packed you can't get in to see a doctor.

@@radicalxedward8047 urgent care costs $250 and payment is due at time of service. Free clinics don't exist everywhere and are booked out several weeks at all time. The ER is the only option for many uninsured.

Well. I mean. Everybody is actively dying in one way or another. So wouldn’t inactive dying just be.. death?

dying a tad bit more actively than supposed to

@@ohwow9559well they could be in a coma rather than spazzing out as they die.

I guess? Actively dying could be translated to "in a state where homeostasis is being directly disrupted and death is imminent" So if you want to make the statement of "inactively dying" then sure... I guess you could say that it is the standard state of less imminent casualties because everyone eventually loses homeostasis at different rates depending on the scenario. It goes into triage at that stage, which was the point of the statement in the first place. Let's say you have three patients. A stubbed toe, a guy with an evisceration, and a cardiac arrest. While the man with the evisceration is likely "dying" he isn't dying as fast as the already dead guy. Obviously stubbed toe guy is your last priority. It's degrees of death and determining which will be the first to die.

@@brokeandtired i don’t get your point. by actively i mean faster than you’re supposed to not moving or wtv

Yeah it is!

I totally agree. This guy and this type of attitude are gross and ita obvious he doesnt see how privileged he is not everyone can afford the ridiculous cost of med or dental insurance

I’ve been to the ER multiple times without insurance and never had any problems being seen. The only difference is when I didn’t have insurance they would offer to fill out Medicade forms to cover the visit. I’ve never filled out the form though because I understand it’s not my neighbors responsibility to spend their tax dollars on my lack of healthcare so I paid the bills in payments instead. But still I’ve never had any issues with it.

@@jamesdoakes4956 your experince is a single experince, leagally no one can be turned away from the ER the difference is the way in which your treated. If you’re uninsured and appear homeless you certainly won’t be treated like someone uninsured that just looks like “maybe they’re in between jobs”. Also, I’m sorry the absurdity of that last comment can’t be ignored. If anything tax dollars should go to healthcare, it’s only one of the major crisis in this country. But your pride or morals or whatever it is can continue paying medcal bills meanwhile tax dollars are probably being spent on a park somewhere as some mayor’s selfish way of memorializing thier name.

@@BarestTruths well if you have a problem with the uninsured not getting treated, divert your energy to the private care sector. We care for everyone in the ER regardless of insurance. Also, we don’t just not take care of someone because they are homeless. 90% of the times they just lie to us so they can have a place to sleep. We know that, so we let them sleep there until the morning if we’re not busy. Regardless, they’re going to be cared for though

@@kr7.00 I guess now I'm feeling brave enough to share my embarrassing ER story. Years ago here in Canada, I had a pilonidal cyst which is a cyst that grows near your tailbone basically in the crack of your bum and it abcessed so I was out new years eve celebrating and by that point it was large enough that it affected how I was walking. Fast forward another day and I end up going to the ER around 9 or 10 pm on January 1st with my mom. After waiting for some 5 hours in the waiting room (I couldn't even sit for obvious reasons so I had to stand), I go inside, wait another hour or so and then they tell me there's no anesthesiologist and its like 3-4 am. So they get a bunch of deer in the headlights looking residency students to use me as a guinea pig. The best they could do for me was local freezing to numb the pain. They proceeded to stab me near the tail bone 3 or 4 times with these giant needles. At this point, I was screaming at the top of my lungs, it literally felt like I was shanked 4 times. Worst pain of my life. And since the abcess is 3 dimensional and pushing out from all sides, the 'anesthetic' didn't do anything except for the skin. So they cut a little slit and then start trying to push the puss out of this golf ball sized and imagine a pimple that size and a grown man pushing his thumbs down on to it with his entire body weight, the pain was horrific. These clowns had no idea what they were doing and the more I screamed in agony, the less sure they seemed of anything. At one point they just gave up trying to reassure me and calm me down as far as the pain went and just said aite fuck it. Anyway, they patch me up with a bit of gauze and hightail it the fuck outta there. My mom said she could hear me screaming through 2 sets of doors waiting outside of the patient area of the hospital wing. Then for the next week, I had to have a nurse come everyday to fill this hole with gauze and you can imagine how it feels getting cloth shoved into an open wound but all in all it wasn't that bad considering this time around, I had painkillers unlike at the ER. My first nurse was this super nice African lady, she guided me through the whole thing. My second nurse was this gigantic Iranian wrestler with huge cauliflower ears, he looked like a bodybuilder. I was expecting to have to hide my reactions to the pain but he was really understanding too 😂 What a life eh?

I finally went when I couldn’t sleep bc I was throwing up every 3 minutes). What caused it was me being 18 and stupid. I slept with someone who WASNT random, I actually knew him since childhood and trusted him, and he was infected with chlamydia and was fully aware. I found out after the fact from friends that he was joking about his “dick germies” (how fuvking disgusting). So I was never told by ANYONE! Not my friends, not him, NOBODY told me to go get tested. I’m no longer friends with anybody who knew about this and kept it from me. If this happened to me now I would do everything I could to try to pursue legal action. Anyways, I was infected for almost 6 months without knowing. I didn’t know until I started having a weird smell down there and went to the GYN. I was so humiliated, embarrassed, I felt so disgusting, I wanted to rip the inside of myself out. My tube was blocked fully by scar tissue, and had filled with fluid. I don’t really know how they got the fluid out, because i didn’t have surgery. I don’t know the state of the tube currently but the ovary has been imaged and it’s intact…so that’s good at least? Ovaries can stay functional without the tube so it could be there…i mean it was never removed so I guess it is? Horrible experience though.
