I am not sure I buy the author’s story.
Early on they complain that the hospital ER is crowded and in part crowded with people whose issues are not worthy of the ER.
Then they say as a migraine sufferer they have a lot of experience going to the ER. Can’t “urgent care”, your personal doctor or other facilities handle a migraine headache condition, particularly when such a symptom is not an unusual one for someone?
“This writer is describing the medical conditions of there people in the ER?
Yup. I am sure these patients were sharing their medical details, and the staff was undoubtedly shouting out all of the medical information of everyone around her.
This doesn’t pass the basic smell test of any ER I ever worked around. I am not buying any of this stuff….”

Agree 100%. Most AGENDANISTAS apparently don’t hesitate to employ fantasies when they don’t have actual realities to advance their agendas.
as a migraine sufferer and frequent emergency room patient
This entire post smells of BS.
It is entirely self-contradictory, complaining about people using the ER and then admitting •frequently• using the ER for (wait for it) migraines.
Plus anyone who uses the medical jargon "emergent" and "non-emergent" to mean the plain English words "emergency" and "non-emergency" pegs my full-of-themselves arrogance meter.
I am covid-vaccine-wary but this message is useless, value-less, lying propaganda.
If someone is having what appears to be a life-threatening emergency, don’t take them to the hospital yourself. Call 911 and let EMS take them there. EMS can start the diagnostic process immediately. And if treatment is needed, they’ll have priority at the hospital.
My friend went to ER in Spokane with a cat bite down to the bone. She went about 7 p.m. and sat there until midnight while the ER filled up with other patients. The later it got, the more druggies showed up. Finally she went to the desk and said the blood poisoning line was running from her hand toward her heart. They brought an IV to the waiting room and treated her there. Worst night of her life.
And how does she know all this. We have regulations preventing medical personnel from discussing other patients and they would not diagnose them sitting in the waiting room.
IDIOCRACY!
LOL👍
Thirty years ago my brother Jim, 36 at the time, went to an emergency room after a pallet loader crushed him against a wall. There was not a doctor on duty but there was one on call. The ER staff called him and, after describing Jim’s visible injuries, the doctor expressed no concerns. Meanwhile, Jim bled out from a ruptured aorta and died in the ER.
That’s a great list of things the government has screwed up.
But, the postal system IS in the Constitution. The rest of those “things” are not.
If we don't get our republic back, what we've seen so far will be the least of it.
For a preview of what we can expect, see my reply #29 on this FR thread...
My Johns Hopkins affiliated doctor no longer sees sick patients and refers people to urgent care
What is an EMTALA?
I have read every post on this thread and have gleaned quite a bit of personal medical information.
I believe the writer when she details what others were in the ER for.
I guess I do not understand why anyone in their right mind would subject themselves to a lengthy wait and the high cost of an emergency room visit when a doctor’s office or urgent care visit would be quicker and less expensive? Oh, wait, I know why: this WAS their doctor’s office…and I was footing their bill.
I am an ER Clerk and this sounds like our ER. We don't have basically any illegals coming in, we are overrun with the medicaid patients who do not have to pay. Doctor offices are able to say they cannot take a patient but ER cannot.
However, although we have tons of covid in our ER, I am not aware of any cases of reactions to the vaccine. Not a single one and since I am the one to check them in, I pretty well know why they are there. I call BS on this.
Wow. The experimental drug pushers really found your post quickly.
Where did you 'hear' this? I work in an ER and we've had lots of covid but not a single case I am aware of that had a bad reaction to a covid shot.
“… I believe the writer when she details what others were in the ER for.”

Well, IMHO, “there’s a sucker born every minute”.
On the other hand I guess you could say my husband had a bad reaction to the covid shot. He almost died of covid so we wanted to get the vaccine to him right away. Our doctor said he would get sick but not hospital sick. He was almost hospital sick with fever and weakness (not even able to sit up without assistance) but it only lasted a couple days whereas with his covid he was in the hospital with covid pneumonia for 11 days and months after he was coughing. He still is coughing some 7 months after. He just is one of those people that don’t do covid well.
He did not get the second shot - and our doctor agreed that it would be okay not to get the second shot.
Half the people coming in said that’s what they were there for.
Our neighbors, both in their late 50’s, got the Moderna Shot.
First shot went okay, no problems for either one.
Second shot 3 weeks later, he was okay, just a very sore arm, but she got very ill, but would not go to the hospital, was bed ridden and missed work for two weeks. She said it was like she had the worst flu ever in her life and wished she had never gotten the second shot...............
