Tony T Posted November 18, 2000 Share Posted November 18, 2000 You need to get medical attention immediately. Call your insurance company right NOW, let them know what is happening, and have them prescribe the most expeditious manner in which you can get help. If you start feeling any worse, GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM. Never, ever wait until Friday evening to think about seeing a doctor when you are very ill. The are normally not in their office on Saturdays or Sundays. Also, you might just call your doctor's paging service, have him call you, and tell him what is going on. He will probably be very pissed because you waited so long to call him, and rightly so. But do it now before it's very late. He may be able to prescribe some medication for you and call it in to a pharmacy. Or maybe he can meet you at his office tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites
Rogue Posted November 18, 2000 Share Posted November 18, 2000 I hope you get better soon,Patty.Do whatever it takes to get the help you need. I really wish at times like this that you guys in the U.S. had universal health care like we do over here. It's just plain worth it,even if your taxes have to go up. Please take good care of yourself, Patty. Link to post Share on other sites

Jean Posted November 20, 2000 Share Posted November 20, 2000 Hello Patty, Please go to the doctor right away. Your condition could be very serious and damage your eardrum. Money is not more important then your health and your mother should take you to the emergency room immediately Please tell her how sick you are, maybe she is not aware of just how much pain you are in..good luck and write back to let us know you are better...
