Well I have been in the ER since 0300 this am with little relief and a lot of attitude. I even printed the form from this webiste and had my neurologist fill it out for me. Unfortunately still attitude. The docotor said "you were just here Sunday didn't you see your doctor or follow any of our directions?" Well of course I did and even had an occipital nerve block which apprarently did not last as long as I had hoped. The doctor informed me that since I am allergic to compazine, reglan, and depakote that he did not know what to do. I asked if he could do toradol IV because that sometimes works better than PO or IM. He agreed and gave me that with zofran and IV benadryl. Well after 30 mins I still had a 7/10 pain. He said well I guess since what you really wanted was narcotics we should have started with that first to save wasting my time. I was so upset and my husband told him exactly what he thought of my treatment. The gave me a full milligram of dilaudid which is 7.5 times stronger the morphine and when I told him I had never had that before he basically said he did not believe me. So I got the injection and immediately broke out in rash. I was so upset and still in pain that I asked to just go home. So here I am in my darkened bedroom with relief from vomiting being my only saving grace right now. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am so physically and emotionally drained I just don't know what to do. My husband should receive some sort of award because no matter what he always takes care of me and never complains. I just am so overwhelmed and depressed today. Thanks for listening.
