E.Rs Even Dr.s do not comunicate directly with each other.

Posted by rubbob1 @rubbob1, Mar 15, 2019

Been in E.R. 5 times this year. Each time I was stabilized with morphine and phentenal. Then released and told to find a doctor. One was a herniated bowel that was push back in and told to see a sergeon. The sergeon was going on vacation for 4 weeks. Called back to E.R. for advise and was told that I couldn't talk to a doctor in E.R. Six days later the hernia went full blown across my lower bowel and into my scrotum. Back to E.R. for emergency surgery later. While wairing I was asked by a technician, if i didn't want to go home and schedule surgery for later as they may have something more important like a gunshot wound.!!??

Hi @rubbob1 that must be frustrating. Did you have the surgery? How did it go?

@rubbob1 How frustrating! I hope you are doing better now. There was only one surgeon who you could go to? That's very surprising, I presume you must live in a very small town. I can't imagine that they have enough gunshot wound patients to actually mention that! I would have figured that was a very unusual thing to have. Maybe the technician was kidding with you.
