I went to the er yesterday afternoon because of frequent vomiting and a ache in my left arm. I arrived and checked in about 12:55pm and spent the next 8+hrs just in the waiting room. I complained many times and was told that I wasn't sick enough. I was there with a couple friends and one of them was there for a chest infection. both of us were given tests that were unnecessary and expensive. Since when does a chest infection require a EKG?? I was dehydrated and needed fluids but was told that I wasn't allowed to drink anything. almost 10hrs with food or drink. when I finally got to see the Dr, he did allow me to have ice chips and I was hooked up to an IV. The Dr. was extremely nice and listened to me and made me feel better. the nursing staff leaves a lot to be desired. if I could not give any stars, I would, but it seems I have to. so they get 1 star. I have NEVER endured such rude people in a hospital before.
