i spent 5 hours in the emergency room yesterday. i was in a car accident on saturday and my car is totaled. i have bruises and look like i've gotten the shit kicked out of me and i got very lovingly yelled at at work to go see a doctor. motrin wasn't working and i needed some vicodin.
i have the same sentiments about the ER. every few minutes i could feel the money meter ticking and every xray i could think of how many hundreds of dollars that is costing.
then i though about how lucky i am to be alive.
but then got pissed off again that this was costing an arm and a leg and i don't have health insurance.
it's just one of those things we take for granted.
my boyfriend had the same dr/hospital problems with his back. when he went to a specialist (that took an hour to flirt with a nurse right outside the room) they told him he has a cyst in his spine and arthritis neither of which they can do anything about. its all bullshit.
