Unnecessary trip to the ER. 😣

[Heavy Kevy]

Had my seizure and fell down. They have all sorts of heart monitors hooked up. My heart and pulse are excellent. I’ve been asked if I was some kind of athlete before. I’m in the ER with consistent bells going off because no beds are open. The only reason they have me staying overnight is so I don’t loose my spot in line for another test tomorrow.
This is pointless. What I need is sleep!
Rant over

Sorry about the seizure, hope you managed to get some sleep and feel better

We all know how frustrating unnecessary trips to ER can be but we also know how long it can take to get in to have tests

Good luck with your test, hope all gos well

Thanks
They randomly gave me a chest x-ray at 3 am.
I’m waiting to take a picture of my brain!

Hi Heavy Kevy,

Sorry to hear that you had a seizure. I went to see my Dr. once for a check up and had a seizure and the next thing you
know I had 3 Drs. in a room watching over me and an ambulance taking me to the ER. That was the end of seeing that Dr.
and I reported him to administration. If a Dr. doesn't know what to do when a person has a seizure then they shouldn't be
in the medical field. Get your rest and good luck on the test. Wishing you only the best and May God Bless You!

Sorry to hear about the seizure @Heavy Kevy . Hospitals in general are difficult places to sleep. The ER specifically is noisy and busy.

I hope you were able to relax and catch a few Zs.

I’m home. I’m wound up like a top. My wife wisely told me to zip it during the discharge. The sarcasm was on full display
Simple miss communication between neuro offices.
Tests scheduled for next week. Yippee!
Thanks!

Ever play touch your nose then touch my finger with the Doc?
I ended up having three different neurologist see me. One was a group of 5 training I assumed.
They asked the same questions. The only time I got them to say “Hmmm” is when I explained the seizures had basically stopped until I switched to Generic Lamictal in May. I have discussed it with my Dr before. I’m going to be asking again.
