We went to the emergency room tonight for sever abdominal pain along with other very painful issues. The triage nurse didn't listen to what I was telling her. She was very dismissive. Half of my history wasn't placed into the system. She told me medication strength was not necessary to know. She miss placing in the computer some of my previous surgeries. When trying to stand up to leave the room, there was no assistance from her at all. She made a noise of being annoyed because I was moving too slow out of her room.
The nurse who took me back to my room seemed to be in a bad mood as well. She asked for me to give a urine sample. Yet again, she knew that I was in severe pain, instead of assisting me to the bathroom, she just pointed down the hallway.

They wanted to run tests that had nothing to do with what I came in for. They were going to use me as a Guinea pig.

The staffs priorities are all messed up. Nurses on their phones, while my husband asked for my room. The nurse fussed because I asked for water to take my medication. Everything was just so messed up. You could hear the nurses gossiping about patients. It was not a good experience at all. This is not the first time I've been treated poorly at the emergency room. The first time I had been dropped when I passed out. I will for now on just bite the bullet and go to a further hospital to be treated better.
