"I WANT TO LIVE!"
Arrived at VA at 6:15am. They threw me down and plugged
me up to EKG. Then IVee after 3 nurses tried 7 times to stick me.
With 3 holes in my hands and 4 holes in my arms. "I LUV that Vodoo Magic!" And then to Xray for some chest shots.
4 hrs later still no doctor.
So I threatened to unplug myself and go after 20 more mins. After 20 mins. I sat up and pulled one of the leads to the heart monitor and suprise the nurse came over and then went to get the doctor.
We talked for 15 mins. and he said he was going to set me up for a stress test next week and had the nurse sign me out.
Total time was 4hrs 56mins.
Update: Just scratched myself and found 2 of the electro-pads still stuck to my body. No wonder I was having a tinglly feeling over my body. They now adorn my monitors one for each.
