Well let me tell you that I did end up going back to the er I passed out on saturday afternoon after I ate, so when I woke up I was throwing up and this was around 7pm, so I waited a while and eventually went in to the hospital and I was having the worse head aches in my life without exagerating I have never had such pain anywhere in my body. So they took me into triage room and al my vitals were fine, but she still put in as priority, so then inside when the doctor came in he sorta examined me looked at my eyes and felt the back of my head, but thats it, then he gave me some medication to get me sleepy and supposebly to take the pain away, but all it was doing was relaxing my body pain was still there, so I told him that I didn't want any drugs cause they weren't doing anything for me as far as the pain went. I was crying at the time so after like 10-15 minutes he came in and gave me more drugs to numb my body at that point still having pain, I told him that I went in to know whats wrong with me not to get drugged up, he then looked at me and yelled at me saying " miss what do you want us to do, we don't know why you are having pain, and we can't do x-rays or a cat scan cause you are pregnant. So all we could do is give you pain reliever, well hell I was pissed off cause I am just so tired of drugs, I told him that mauybe xray or cat scans are not safe for the baby and asked him if drugs were safe for a baby?? He then stood quite and said wqell then I don't know why you came in! I then said I was just going to go to another hospital where they knew more of what they were doing so I got up and was about to walk away when one of the nurses grabbed me by my shirt and pulled me back, she then said you can't leave unless you want me to call the cops, I said well call the cops but don't ever touch me again. Then they took the iv off and finally let me go home. Needless to sat at this point my head feels like it is going to burst. I am tired of going to the doctor's no one wants to check me and I feel as if they think I should just deal with a headache but they can not possibly imagine my pain, I mean come on I would not go in to the er and wait for 3-4 hrs for a common head ache! What do I do, how do I get the help I need and want!!

Oh sweetie this sounds so bad, is ur gp a better doctor or have u tried visiting another doctor one who will listen. I would ring my gp and see wot he/she says, and ur right those drugs could be doing harm to ur precious bundle.

After this is all over I would sue theire asses how dare they treat a women with obvious symptoms such as wot ur having and being pregnant and all that they deserve to have their medical licenses taken away from there.

I hope u get the answers ur looking for and quickly.

I am shocked to hear that. I would have punched the doctor for being an ass and the nurse for grabbing me if I was you. I'm so angry for you! Evil or Very Mad

I am so mad for you. That was quite ridiculous. Shocked I would do what the other people have said. Sue their asses off after it is over. Really they don't need to have their Dr. Liscense if they don't know what they are doing. They need to repractice aparently. Hope you feel better soon Smile
