Thanks all. I'm okay.The pharmacist said she tweeked the insurance thingy and a friend delivered it to me. That was not the doc that did surgery. He's just my PCP. It is funny. That hospital night I spoke about,I was unable to retrieve any record of. I tried to get it to bring to another second opinion doc. Of course I won't mention that to my new doc. I'm not gonna sue anyone. I am poor and tired. I threatened the hospital the day after the hospital incident and whoosh, the records are gone. All I said when the hospital complaint lady ( for lack of a better word) is she could explain the miscommunication drivel she was trying to appease me with to my lawyer. (as if I have one) It could well be that when you don't sign the discharge papers Your Er visit Never happened. Just a word to the wise. I guess I am doctorless till my new doc in NOv.. When I am better, more cognisant and sane, who knows, I will do whatever I can to help get the message out. I will speak my mind without fear. I hate all these drugs we are befuddled by. This whole cluster #$%^ has got to be addressed and loudly. We are just too sick to fight real hard. Much love to all, Dawn
