There will only be one video this Saturday, as I'm currently in an ER waiting room with what is most likely a stomach ulcer. I'm not in much pain at all and it's easily treatable, but it's one of those things that requires immediate attention.
Protip: don't take ibuprofen for an extended period of time.
I'll be fine, thankfully it's just a stressful hassle at this point. I'm looking at a possible 4-5 hour wait (which is a good thing since ERs treat in order of importance, if you get into an ER fast you're in trouble).
I'll keep you updated. <3
EDIT: Still here! Five hours later! Good to know I'm low on the emergency scale, I guess? "Even by this hospital's standards I should only have another hour wait max," she says naively.
EDIT EDIT: Got home at like 5am, cleared to take over the counter stuff and all my tests came out fine. They had a hell of a time tapping my veins, as someone deathly afraid of needles let me tell you....least favorite part of the whole thing.
The staff were somehow in great spirits despite being in their field durifinals pandemic, which makes the experience 100x better. I dunno how much they're about to charge me, but I'll cross that bridge when i get to it. The important thing is that they took care of me, I can take meds now, and everything turned out fine.
Thank you for all the lovely comments! I checked on them periodically yesterday and they were so nice to see in the middle of a 10 hour wait. <333
