My wife was feeling dizzy and fainted so we went to the ER. We get there and check in and as soon as my wife was done being questioned by the nurse they asked me if I was vaccinated. Once I told them I’m not (nor is my wife) they told me I wasn’t allowed to be there. Since my wife’s blood pressure was really low and she was nervous as it is, I kept calm reassured my wife that I’d be right outside and went to my car right out front where I am now.
I nearly fucking exploded on everyone in there… So much anger and hate is boiling up in me. This COVID fraud has done and is doing so much fucking damage to people. I’ve already lost one of my best friends to the vaccine (J&J heart attack, he was only 28).
Please pray for my family frens

I guess I’m just a weirdo— my dad was a MD who practiced and taught specialized medicine at a state Med School- awarded a Chair after his death- renown in his speciality— I worked in medicine as hematology/serology/immunology tech so I actually have a medical background— I HAVE NEVER GONE TO AN EMERGENCY ROOM HOSPITAL IN MY LIFE- what the hell - my kids got sick / I got sick / my damn dogs get sick — we also get well and have antibodies against what made us sick so I have to ask — unless you’re a glowie— why in hell would you go to the ER unless someone is on deaths door ?
Idk I guess cause I saw someone I love having an episode, panicking, and me not knowing what to do. There’s still doctors out there who want to help people and me being good natured I suppose I want to believe that. Also I don’t have a huge background in medicine such as yourself.
Which is a reason not to panic yourself. She is depending on you to keep her calm. Not everything is an ER situation. But I completely understand when you see a loved one in bad shape.. but when they panic they sometimes cannot see through the fog and it really is not an er situation once they calm down and start thinking clearly. If all vitals check then it may not be as bad as we think.
I’ve taken my kids for stitches when they’ve fallen out of bed but my friends think it’s weird I don’t take them for high fevers (obviously not TOO high) but honestly what is an ER gonna do for a fever with no dehydration or localized pain? Tylonal? Ice packs? I can do that at home.
Yeah, it depends on the length of the fever or how high it is. Like once, I had bacterial pneumonia and it hit hard and fast. I went from feeling poorly to a 105.7 fever in less than a day and my mom had to call for an ambulance Bc there was too much snow.
My youngest had a 104.7 the last high fever he had. That’s the one where everyone freaked out I didn’t take him to the ER. It spiked up pretty fast, he wasn’t having febrile seizures or anything like that. No other symptoms at all at that point actually. I gave him some meds and used cool wet rags on him and got it down 3 degrees in less than an hour, then it kept going down. I did have to take them both to the dr like a week later Bc they were still running fevers. They had an “unspecified respiratory virus that we’ve seen going around”. Jan 2020.
But I’ve also been in the ER, waiting to be seen, only to watch as they take a kid to triage, give them tylonal, and then have them wait to see if it comes down in the waiting room. If it does they recommend them to go to the pediatricians office the next day. You hear the moms bitching about it in the waiting room.
My g/f had severe stomach/abdominal pain and I took her to an 'urgent care' facility, and they immediately sent me to the ER. We arrived at 6pm, and by midnight they removed her appendix. It was already leaking which led to complications. Home the next day. Had we delayed, it could have been really serious. So not sure what you mean by 'death's door' ...
Thats deaths door, next question —
But people dont usually know it's their appendix causing the stomach cramps... people who have appendix issues have no clue they "are on deaths door", it's just a bad stomach ache to them.
Abdominal pain for long periods of time is concerning enough to go to the hospital for the appendix rupture possibility. You shouldn’t die in 24 hours of having it rupture so if you are in pain for like 10 hours and you haven’t pooped the pain away then yes I think its a pretty obvious sign to go to the hospital. I have a background in healthcare. A stomach ache is not concerning, a long lasting not letting up ache is. Similar to a heart attack “chest pain” except you may have very little time to fix one of those. Appendix will kill you from sepsis which takes time to fester.
My original comment was made as a general reference to literally avoiding the hospital at all costs unless you will die without their treatment. Everyone knows of someone who needed an appendix out or open heart surgery - those cases are so rare and you must avoid the hospitals at this time of you can because they ARE and HAVE BEEN killing people with malpractice for many years. Not saying everybody in the hospitals has an agenda or loves to murder — simply saying the textbooks they follow and their own media influenced guidance is corrupted.
My bf was pouring concrete and a form fell on his head so he went to the ER for stitches.
You sound pretentious.
