Because I have no insurance as a "single" adult with no kids or family; I was treated like a joke in the ER. Heard then say "Leave her last and minimal care; she has no insurance. Bet she is looking for meds as well." Ultrasound and CT were nice to me; as well as two GYN attendants. The rest just left me there dehydrated with no fluids bag. They kept saying even my allergies to medication and dyes bothered them. I left still in pain and with no answers to why I doubled over in pain and throwing up. All I got was "We know you are in pain, just cannot find it; but we think it is a kidney stone or polyp, or hernia, or cyst.. We just do not know, but do you want meds?" NO I DO NOT WANT MEDS!!!! I WANT TO NOT BE TREATED LIKE A WASTE OF TIME. I WANT THE SAME HELP YOU GIVE INSURED PEOPLE WHO CAN AFFORD A JOKE MEDICAL SYSTEM!!! I WOULD HAVE BERN BETTER OFF STAYING HOME AND NOT LOOSING HOURS AT WORK I NEEDED!!!
