Went in to the ER to get a MRI for a ruptured disc tgat occurred thethenight before. The ER us not allowed to send a patient for a MRI despite being in severe pain and extreme difficulty walking. I need to know which disc(s)and its severity so tgat i could follow up witg neurosurgery. Neurosurgery wi not see me without a new MRI. And i am unable to get an appt withmy PRP for several weeks. Thie standard of care is unacceptable.
