whilst in the ER (where I went for some pretty severe abdominal pain, and no worries, I'm much better now!)
1. Don't drive yourself. (This was my bad. Didn't occur to me to have someone else take me...). I couldn't even stay in my lane or drive the speed limit the whole way. Oops.
2. Have an ambulance take you. Kinda goes with #1, but seriously, those people get treatment immediately, rather than waiting around in excruciating pain for hours!
3. Try not to roll your eyes when your doctor tells you that you're "kind of" in the medical field. Gag.
4. Get insurance that doesn't have a pricey deductible for ER visits. I guess that's what I get for choosing a plan because "when am I ever going to go to the ER?"
And that's basically what I learned. I guarantee I won't be going back anytime soon, no matter how much pain I'm in. Besides, my tool of a doctor gave me painkillers for next time.
