Went
in
Tuesday
night
around
10
pm
for
what
I
thought
was
severe
heartburn,
but
after
running
several
tests
including
blood
work,
a
CT
scan,
and
an
ultrasound,
they
found
I
had
a
lot
of
gallbladder
stones
and
an
inflamed/infected
gallbladder.
I
was
later
transferred
to
the
main
Greater
Heights
hospital
around
6
am
Wednesday
morning.
The
admission
process
was
quick
and
efficient,
and
the
representative
who
welcomed
us
and
helped
us
with
our
initial
paperwork
was
kind
and
understanding.
The
nurses,
imaging
tech,
and
doctor
I
received
care
from
were
also
trying
their
best,
but
the
reason
I
put
3
stars
is
because
I
feel
like
even
though
I
kept
telling
them
how
much
pain
I
was
in
and
how
the
medication
was
not
helping,
I
was
being
dismissed.
It
wasn’t
until
they
found
the
gallbladder
stones
and
infection
that
I
felt
they
finally
started
taking
my
pain
more
seriously
and
finally
gave
me
enough
medicine
for
the
pain
to
soothe.
I
don’t
want
to
blame
a
single
individual.
I
know
both
the
doctor
and
the
nurses
are
under
a
lot
of
pressure
to
work
in
often
understaffed
environments
and
also
have
to
navigate
an
opioid
crisis.
I
just
wish
they
prioritized
making
the
patient
comfortable.
I
kept
remembering
how
back
in
2019,
when
I
ended
up
in
another
ER
due
to
apendicitis,
they
immediately
let
me
in,
hooked
me
on
to
an
IV,
and
gave
me
morphine
for
pain
and
another
med
for
my
nausea.
I
didn’t
really
have
to
beg
and
beg
for
more
care
and
attention
like
I
did
here.
Again,
it
was
a
different
time
and
a
different
set
of
challenges
but
being
a
patient
who
was
very
scared
and
in
a
lot
of
pain
in
that
situation
was
just
hard.
I
hope
policies
change
and
that
the
hospital
management
provides
the
proper
staffing
and
safety
support
the
staff
needs
to
care
for
their
patients
better.
