I've had horrible experiences OHSU since February ...

I've had horrible experiences OHSU since February of last year with not telling me my proper diagnosis even after going there three times. Went in for blocked off to me severe pain was given CT scan after a long wait. Was told I had a blockage and hernia song My ostomy site nobody told me that on the same report and sewed my gallbladder was bad with stones. I was given a staff surgical consult with OHSU Physicians it took months to get in with pain and suffering the entire time and having to go through patient advocate managers in my own primary to get that appointment or happened in June. After seeing the first surgeon I still was not told of my gallbladder problems and she even mentioned she didn't have the CT report but had reviews my other info and wanted me to go to another surgeon in that office so I had to set another appointment up and still didn't have the other diagnosis. Left in pain sickness and dehydration had to finally get in to see another doctor when my blood pressure and pulse was so high from pain he sent me by ambulance from OHSU Clinic evolve to the hospital on top and still they didn't tell me about my gallbladder a huge issue only works me up for heart never saw a doctor before discharge. Traumatize after experience. the third time a surgeon finally told me of the gallbladder with stones sent me again to ER where I found I had pancreatitis on top of everything which took going to Providence Hospital I received horrible care they're also but was admitted and left early due to couldn't even see a GI Doc and they almost killed me giving me lactulose which is a No-No for ostomy patients. After my surgeries ended up having complications in October when I had new ostomy and hernia removal no ostomy nurse was sent to my room even with almost a week Hospital stay. Which is normal protocol and you have to be fitted for a proper size bag I was sent home with the old bag on which was too tight causing me horrible problems not healing and also not any pain control I've suffered immensely sent to this day with box of Health and I've been told again to go to the ER probably my blood pressure has been as far as 258 over to 28th and I've called repeatedly only being told to go to the ER I'm scared to death do you know anywhere now where can you get adequate care in Portland? Yesterday I hired a patient advocate at the cost of $5,000 to try to help me before I die or end with a stroke or toll organ damage. I am on disability but have two insurances and still can't get adequate care what has happened to our Healthcare System am I the only one. Also what has happened to adequate pain control this is a severe problem it's not paying patients and surgical patients abusing obvious people on the streets are buying them illegally you can't even get a prescription filled for opiates anymore without huge complications and everything is tracked under your name there is no reason for a patient after surgery with complications to be left in bed in their own feces with no ostomies bags or pain medication. I am at a loss of what to do anymore and I'm going to die if I don't get help soon
