ok.... my hospital stories.... hhmmm so many. i suppose my favorite was when the paramedics were called for a bit of a heart scrare. nothing of note really other then i have a slight atrial tachacaridia problem but no heart disease otherwise.
well my heart was racing soooo bad and it won't stop. so i'm laying down and it's still not stopping. finally, the HMO says to call the paramedics.... oooooo be still my heart. (yes, female.) nearly dropped off the floor from their cutenesses. oh well, i hate hospitals more. but finally, we go to be sure. trust me the halter exam was the worst. i'm allergic to tape and broke out in the worse kinda rash you can imagine.
(now you all have to promise to not tell the husband about the cuties.)
the other times i was in the ER was for three different kidney infections. talk about your bummer.
so a clue is if you have any kind of pain or nausea with a fever over 101 is to go to the ER. chances are it's an indication of something infectious like in a more serious nature that can't wait.
and what was that camp thinking? did they get sued? please tell me they did....
