Worried And Hurting A Lot
Previous - this entry written on November 24, 2001 at 3:51 am - Next


My case worker at the OHP/foodstamps office retired without telling me.

Went to the hospital today - five hours of misery, in trade for a lot of snide comments, 20 vicodin which are already down to ten and will NOT last me until Monday (which is when I talk to the urologist, in theory).

They performed no tests other than a urinalisys (and from that told me to take antibiotics)... guess what? I already had antibiotics, courtesy of the urologist's orders. Stupid ER doctor didn't even check. Did they do anything else to try to figure out why I was in intense pain?

No.

Stupid ER doctor also seemed to think I might be lying about having a stent (which yes, is really spelled that way according to the paperwork they sent home with me from surgery) because apparently he expected TO BE ABLE TO SEE IT PROTRUDING FROM MY BACK!

No see stent, no get drugs, seemed to be his policy. I think he only gave me the vicodin because he knew if he tried to send me away without doing ANYTHING I'd sue him.

If I could remember his name, I might.

Once I got in there, after the first THREE HOURS of waiting, a nurse came in and gave me three shots in my arse - one for each hour, is all I can figure. In theory, one was for pain and one for nausia, I never did get told what the other one was for. They all hurt.

And the nausia one didn't help with nausia - I got more queasy.

And the pain one didn't help with pain - I hurt more.

And I also ended up feeling all wired and strung out, a feeling which has yet to fade completely. Ick.

So my new theory is this: I don't go to hospitals. Every time I have gone to one recently, they have managed to make the pain WORSE. So I'm just not going. They can do their own merry little thing and let me die. I'll hurt less.

Go ahead. Try to convince me this is a bad plan.

I think it's a good one.

It involves signifigantly LESS pain, from what I can tell.

I'm going to be out of Vicodin by Sunday.

I can't talk to a doctor until Monday.

This is gonna SUCK.

Grr, if you could get in touch with Manna...?
