Another update on the wife....................

I am still talking to her and they are discharging her form the hospital. The doctor prescribed her ALOT of pain meds and anti-nausea pills. So hopefully she can get to the specialist soon.
I don't mean to be rude, but tell the doctor to make her an appointment with a specialist today or tomorrow!! if you don't she'll get the run around and may takes weeks to get in. A doctor can get her an appointment right away!!! Tell the Dr. you don't want an app. soon you want it NOW!! Went through something like this with my Mom.
The sad thing is that they wont do that. We have tried in the past and they wouldnt. I live in a small town and it is hard to find good people in it. She told me that going to the specialist is gonna have to wait till she moves back east to TN/KY when she can go to Vanderbilt University Medical Center again. Hopefully it wont be too long before she does that. She has already been looking for a place east to move into. I am ok with her doing this just as long as if it gets worse again that she will go right in. Vanderbilt is the ONLY hospital that she trust. We have had bad experiences with other hospitals and Vanderbilt is the only one that actually found what was wrong with her at the time.
