The OP needs to take a chill pill. If the ER stresses you as much as it comes across in your comments maybe it's time to retire or find a less stressful job.

Hilarious name. I think I'll make it part of my vocabulary now. Hey, you little pissant!

I bet the pissants in suits make sure they get their lunch breaks though

First off, spell check is your friend. Secondly, what an idiotic comment regarding what the family members actions might have been after they left. "I guess more little old ladies to upset or a child or two to run over" What a very insensitive and ca...

My sister has migraines and has been going the botox route at her neurologist. Not sure if they really work. I had a neighbor who said they did nothing for her. Oh, and the local hospital puts migraine sufferers in the fast track when it is open.

Maybe it's the way they said it?

There is ALWAYS 3 sides to a story. Somehow the truth is in them.

What's funny is that I get that kind of pain right before I have a bowel movement and once I go the crampy pain is gone till the next time. Stress also seems to make it bad. I hate it.

My point was that when a woman goes to the ER with abdominal pain they automatically assume it is some kind of "woman problem". That was what happened to me back in the early 90's when I had a huge bleeding duodenal ulcer. Had so many pelvic exams be...

I have diverticulosis and I know when I have acute abdominal pain I need to get to the ER for a CT scan. I found out last year and my GI doctor told me that if I had pain on my left side I needed a CT scan. Well, had no clue as to what kind of pain h...

I actually find that person to be quite offensive as a fellow atheist. We're not all like that. I have my views but I would never try to shove them unto someone else just because I am so conceited to believe "I am ALWAYS correct".

Keep it up. You are coming across as a bitter hateful person. But maybe that's what you want.

It's YOUR reality. Other people have faith in there being someplace to go after they die. It's what keeps them going during times of stress and just bad times. I'm sorry that your atheism has clouded your opinion so much that you come across AS a hat...

Doesn't the family or guardian have to approve such measures? I ask this because I have seen numerous aggressive dementia patients at the locked facility a family member was in and they did nothing when one was hitting other residents and another use...

Cool! Congrats!

That reminds me of one local ER. They start on IV on everyone regardless of their complaint. Nothing like seeing a waiting room full of people with IV's. It also prevents people from leaving before seeing the doctor. Money for the hospital because E...

Seriously, this is homework-you all shouldn't be answering these questions. The OP needs to actually find a nurse to ask instead of asking on an internet forum where anyone can pretend to be a nurse.

Personally, I don't understand what the problem is. I see a need to grow a thicker skin because if the OP got so upset over this what would they do if someone got REALLY disrespectful. As for IV's, it's not pleasant being being stuck over and over ag...

Well you pretty much made my point about needing to grow a thicker skin. Bottom line is you stuck your nose in where it didn't belong and came here in the hopes of having your hurt feelings soothed which didn't happen. You're not the first person to...

I don't understand the need to bring others down while trying to hype yourself. The bottom line is the OP gave advice that was was not asked of her and got her panties in a bunch because the pharmacist took offense to her sticking her nose where it ...

the ignorance in this post is amazing.

Maybe. But I bet he knows how to correctly spell "pharmacist".

They're also saying now his wife might be arrested because of her actions(or inaction) Apparently she tried to talk him out of, was with him when he bought ammo and when he was staking out other places like Disney World. If that is the case she could...

I don't see it as rude. What I do find rude is someone sticking their nose into a conversation that they are not part of. Like the OP.

I used to work in a pharmacy and yes, they are allowed to give advice like that. I myself have asked their advice over minute things like the OP was talking about. I don't know why you think they can't. I too take offense to the comment regarding th...
