My experience a year ago in the ER was a disaster. I had fallen the night before and was in pain. I went to the ER and, after seeing the triage nurse, was sent through numerous corridors to a back area of ER beds that I walked to despite my pain. The doctor did not do an x-ray despite my complaint of pain and telling her that I had a high pain tolerance. She insisted it was only a bruised tail bone and that I should sit on a donut and I was discharged with pain medication. 2 weeks later when I could barely walk, I went to an orthopedic doctor and the x-ray indicated I needed an MRI which showed an acute break of the sacrum.
