most of us have no problem saying " have you had it happen to you? because if not you dont know". i know ive said it before too and it all the time in the emergency room. well after today i can say yes, yes i have..
so far to date the only common test i havent had was an mri.
today i was seen in the er for some severe "im gonna rip out my female anatomy" pelvic pain. normally i get mad when people come in for this because primarily they come in for a check up. the er is not the place for a check up..
i had blood drawn, urine sent, a pelvic exam (sucks) and even a foley so i could go to ultrasound... all, except the blood, sucked but because its neccessary it wasnt so bad. the foley, as uncomfortable as it was wasnt half as bad as everyone makes it.. so i can say, your being a baby *unless your a guy* when you whine about it..
as much as i hate being a patient and i would honestly rather die than come to the er, and i work in the er.. so how much sense does that make?
i think people dont realize thats just because we are medical staff, we are human too. we get sick.. we have to come in and be seen too. so yes, we have been through what your going through and we know that its hurts and its aggravating and gives you anxiety not knowing what is wrong. but we know, and were only here to help you, if you let us.
all you have to do is come in and ask..
