[QUOTE="Star*, post: 148157, member: 4964"] Nomad, I would take her to a GP, and see if he can feel an ovarian cyst. Your daughters symptoms sound like a lot of things - but maybe she could get a referral for an OBGYN. As far as "I want a sandwhich." "I want a cigarette!" I would have and have done the same thing as husband did. In my opinion if you are in a hospital - you are sick. You are SO sick you need immediate attention. That does not include a sandwhich and a cigarette. I understand that the pain medications were working, but what were the pain medications working on? What did they diagnosis her with for an order of pain killers? They sent her home so apparently they either found nothing upon exam or would have recommended her to a specialist. I say this because when Dude was 6 - he destroyed the ER waiting room while we waited for a psychiatrist because I had just thrown him in the car and left without money. He destroyed the room over a .35 cent package of crackers and a drink that he wanted but I had no money. When the nurses saw that? I got some immediate help. But he was 6. Since then we've had several trips to the hospital and when he started acting up, I got up and walked out and said - If you're well enough to complain - we don't need to be here, we'll see a doctor tomorrow. Because NO ONE else in here wants to hear your mouth. Oddly enough - after 2 or 3 times of that? I can tell you that Dude WILL behave in an ER. I think it's nasty to have a drink and snack machine in there anyway - all those germs of sick people on the arm rests and the machine itself - and in the air and you want to sip a Sprite and have a burger? Blech. I'm the little odd ball wiping our chairs down with Lysol wipes and spraying with pocket sized disenfectant and touching NOTHING.....ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Reminds me of another time - I went with a debilitating migraine so bad I was in stroke range and not able to walk or talk. The woman next to me had been brought in by AMBULANCE and had a subway sandwhich in her lap - they determined that if she could eat she could wait - so she unrolled this putrid smelling, wrapper crinkinling paper and talked, laughed, talked on her phone - ate.....and Finally I held my head and asked her if she could move - the sandwhich was making my migraine worse - and I got a nasty look and ignored. Until about 3 minutes later when I threw up in her direction. That moved her. I never apologized either - because I WAS sick. Hope your daughter gets well soon. I would check on cysts sounds like my friends daughter. Could be an ulcer too - could be a pulled muscle - and COULD be (I learned this here) impacted bowels. Hugs for the bad night - Star [/QUOTE]
