Getting a cluster headache alone at home, calling up mom, says she won't do anything about it, calling 911, 3 guys show up expecting you had severely injured your head, then they rush you to the hospital, and the doctor puts you in a bed, hooks you up to an IV and you just have to wait for the pain to stop. THEN, your physician tells you something's wrong and you should go to a specialist, and the specialist says he thinks nothing is wrong.
FFFFFFFFF--

I'd like to avoid them whenever possible since my friend's dad died from either a botched surgery or negligent after care.
Last month I had an allergic reaction to a couple pain medication they prescribed to me. That was the worst week of my life, I broke out in hives and rashes. After that they told me to take one to see which one I'm allergic to. I haven't gotten around to it yet.
Icepick, was the lumps under your armpit cysts?

Would you rather pay for your health care or deal with retarded health insurance?WickedLiquid said:Wait times in hospitals are ridiculous. I hate how Michael Moore makes it look like Canada lives in a perfect utopia where visiting the hospital is as quick as ordering fast food.

I've been to hospital once, I jumped off a climbing frame from too high up and jarred my thigh bone into my hip bone when I was about 8 years old. The treatment was to have my leg raised in a stirrup for 3 days whilst I watched He-Man and Biker Mice from Mars - so nice memories really.

Hell no. I just remember watching Sicko and hearing Canadians brag about how they all see a doctor in under an hour. How nice of Moore to represent the 2nd largest country in the world by visiting one of the smallest towns in all of Canada. I appreciate his love for Canada but he didn't have to exaggerate to the point of bull s***.
Anyway, there's just something about hospitals that creep me out. While waiting in them I start to think about all the people in there. From people with mental health issues to people in surgery to women giving birth to elderly on their death bed.
