I left.

Let me explain, the term “it was insane“ is routinely overused in society, but that ER was nothing short of that, totally insane. I had to keep looking around me to make sure I wasn’t in a third world country or something. I notified the triage nurse that I was leaving and while discussing she conceded this was an unusually bad day. The PA agreed. The cat-scan technician did also. I wanted to take a picture of the place but that would have been immoral, there were sick people lined up everywhere, standing room only. I couldn’t take it anymore, I was suffering too much and the people coming in were sicker than me, crying and moaning and you name it. I would have been there til 10 o’clock.

I’ll take my chances and see a neurologist Thursday or so. I’ll alternate Tylenol and Ibu as needed til then. If I’m lucky it may even go away as it usually does for the rest of the year.
