That's why I never go to an ER (unless I'm dying). I have been having my own spate of run-ins with my doc. Can you come up, we need to take a test. Hey, I've been up there the last 3 Mondays out of 4, can't things be done all at once? I'd like a day off from work without visiting you, dammit!

Sounds like the local hospital's ER
I go in, can't breath, turning blue, have to wait 45 minutes before regestration, 2 hours before I get hooked up to the breathing treatment... by now it's like 11 at night. 1 am rolls around, off to x-ray, cuz the doctor thinks he heard something in my lungs. My very first chest X-Ray! (also, by now it is my birthday). I get a happy birthday coffee by the x-ray techs (the only nice people there that night). Shove one boob off to the left, and one to the right for the x-ray...5 am, doc finally comes back. "You have asthma". 9 hours to find out something that would have taken my PC (primary care) half an hour to tell me. I love ER's

I'm not looking for your granny panties, Siren. We all have those. We wear them when no one is looking and, always, when we're on our period.
I want to see the ones underneath. The special occasion panties. The silky ones...
You've got 'em.
We all have them.
Those are the ones i want to see, Siren.
On you.

Well, I know you are probably just looking for a little of that Lit love and support, but to answer why ERs suck...
Primarily it's demand. Emergency rooms have a much higher demand than with regular doctors. When you can wait until you can get an appointment, the doctor can see you and focus exclusively on your problem until it's resolved. In the ER, attetion is getting split nine ways from Sunday because all these people needed help right fucking now, plus add to the fact the ER tends to see the more critical complicated stuff and you could see why the staff would be a bit flustered.
Add to this many of the poor use the ER to get medical treatment because of their lack of health insurance, and you increase the problem.
Plus there is a serious shortage of nurses out there currently, which is why hospitals may end up picking people who are less than completely qualified. Most nurses are overworked, underpaid, and exhausted a big part of the time, which is why their bedside manner can completely suck ass.
Sorry you had such a crappy experience and hope you get better soon dear.

Sorry you had to go through all that.
For 40 some odd years I took pride in the fact that I had never had an IV, never spent the night in a hospital. Never really got sick. Sure I banged the hell outta myself, had to get a few wounds stitched up and the lot.
It sure can change fast. Shit in the last two years I damn near live in the fucking hospital. God bless the wonderful nurses. Damn the others to hell. And fuck stupid assed doctors up while your at it. It is so funny how a place can have such a variety of staff working under one roof. Shift change is a throw of the dice.
I hope you get every thing worked out. At least I finaly learned why mom said to wear clean underwear all the time, cause you never fucking know when you're gonna end up laying on their table...
