had a bad t/c seizure saturday evening, my son was there and my hubby got home soon after, i was postical for about 30mins. my hubby got upset cuz i was choking when he laid my head down on a pillow. yelled at my son to call 911, so my son is trying to tell them to send a ambulance asap, and tell my dad to roll me on my side. so the emts got there and i sort of came to to all these people and closed my eyes and this emt kept saying openn your eyes, which i could barely sqint cuz of the light. i kind of drifted in and out i think cuz i dont remember much until getting in the ambulance an i felt like i was fallinghead first off a cliff. i had the worst migraine, they took me to the hospital i hate. they said they would give me demeral for my head and phenegran shots. i told them it wouldnt work. i said the hospital that usauly sees me,( was on drive by cuz it is a great hosital.) gives me a iv and morphine and phenegran cuz they know how bad it is as well as my head trama when i hit the desk as i did last night. so the nurse left and came back and said she is giving me a shot of morphine in my hip and phenegran. after ct that luckly was ok cuz i have a dent. they cam and asked how my pain was. i said the shot just barely took the edge off. so they gave me another shot and then after 15 mins sent me home. 30 mins after the shot my head was worse than it had been to start with. so i called the er and i told them i was able to walk,talk and wasnt sleepy. i ? what they gave me for real because i have had morphine before and it always made me sleepy and took the pain away. they insisted they gave me morphine, i ? what do i do about the pain then. they said its save to take your fiorriral now and go to bed. so the buggers lied to me and it makes me mad!!!! so now i that i am finaly due another dose that will get rid of this migraine i hope, i will say good nite one and all.

painfully, me

Oh no.They wouldn't listen.The arrogance of that bunch.They need to remember their own creedo"First,do no harm."I understand conceited medical people who think they know it all,and don't LISTEN to the person in pain.Can your dr give you a prescription with"Give morphine & phenergan for migraines & seizure pain" written on it so you can give it to the medicos?You are twice blessed tha your hubby & son know what to do to help you.I pray:Please God,give this woman relief from pain and give her compassionate,knowledgeable doctors to care for her.Amen.
