All I can say is "Wow". I have had pancreatitis . It was horrible. After the antibiotics they said time to go home. No , I stood up to the physicians and my gallbladder was removed. Not a problem since. They were saying I probably was drinking or taking drugs. I do neither. It was insulting. I stand up to physicians that treat patients like they are uninformed and sometimes treat you like you do not have a brain. I find since the Pandemic it has been worse. No empathy. I would not treat others like this since you are old that you are either hard of hearing..So they speak louder and leave out things because you do not understand.Not with me or my spouse. I am his caregiver and know him better than anyone. Be your own advocate. I know you did not ask for this, I was just sharing. My spouse has been in the hospital so much in the last few years. Hugs to you and I appreciate all that you shared.
