[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 304539, member: 1233"] I have no faith that the EMT's would be listened to. I once saw the guy who seems to be the main one on call most of the time refuse to listen to the emt's when they said a patient was having problems. He just tells them to shut up because he knows what it wrong and they don't. Sadly, he is also "in charge" of the free clinic run through the hospital also. You cannot call and find out if anyone else is on call either. It stinks. He is not even a doctor, he is a physician's assistant but he has no doctor supervising him. If you insist on a physician they send you home. Will have security escort you out and will call the police to remove you if you insist. It is really scary. But I have seen them do it firsthand and have been threatened with the police several times. If at any point she show any lack of ability to speak we would call 911 anyway. I may do it this evening if she has another long one, in spite of the idiot who is in the ER. IT is one thing we have not tried. As for the EEG, the pediatrician said it was "confusing". I have asked for records but they are stalling. It takes about 3 weeks after a request to get them from the hospital (any hospital) unless you are a doctor. I am hoping to get some answers from the doctor today. I will let you know. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
