      what i don't understand is why someone refusing pain meds when they're in a lot of pain is an ick for that nurse. like how is that affecting you in anyway that makes you feel entitled to feeling icked by THIER decision concerning Their body? not to mention an epidural is a needle in your spine, that carries the risk of being paralyzed if its done wrong.

      If someone is complaining about that level of pain when the ball just got rolling, by the time she was fully dilated and things get intense, often they will be screaming for that epidural they refused and at this stage can no longer get. Seen it many times.
      Btw, epidurals are placed by anesthesiologists who have YEARS of education and do them pretty much every day. Also, it's a catheter (flexible) not a needle (rigid).

    What's really sad about the woman who wasn't hired because of her boudoir photo shoot, is that she wrote a book about how in 2010 when she was 19, she was kidnapped and held as a sex slave by her boss for SIX WEEKS! And she had posted her photo shoot because she was trying to come to terms with her body and how she looks, after surviving such a horrific situation, and that cost her a job opportunity! The AUDACITY!

      I agree. Something like this, though, there should be a caveat before explaining the photos on the platform: "So, this is for all the HR departments that will likely come at me for these photos. If you're here checking to see if I would be a good fit for your company, please, continue reading the story behind these photos. If you have questions or concerns please feel free to follow up with me with those questions or concerns. I am happy to answer honestly." I mean, yeah, it's annoying to put that there, but the fact is that most companies/corporations WILL search social media. And they WILL judge you over your content.

    My mom was a nurse for 17 yrs. She would tell me stories about the mean girls nurses who she worked with. It was really bad sometimes. They were younger and had higher authority than my mom. (She went to nursing school after she and my dad divorced and was 40 when she started working) She was one of the good ones. The hospital even made one of the newsletters about her. My mom had given a patient the shoes off of her feet and walked to her car, in the snow, with only her socks. She passed away in 2016 ♡

My mums only a little woman, she’s got such a kind heart and she loved her job, getting treated that way was misery. Thankfully she’d had some good job placements in hospitals were all the staff in the ward where really good friends and were nice but man, there are some awful fucking people who go into nursing that don’t deserve to be there and make the people who actually love what they do, miserable and depressed.

    The 'mean girl'-to-nurse pipeline is such a real thing. Of course there are a ton of people within that profession who are wonderful, kind, altruistic, etc, but for an upsettingly not insignificant number, it's a way to be able to keep people under their control.

      I’ve got one at pain management that is so bad I want to switch pain management doctors every time I deal with this woman, and my provider is fantastic. She doesn’t even make me come in every month but I still go in every month because that’s easier than getting a refill over the phone, or through the app, because apparently this nurse doesn’t check either one. The months that I have to go in for pill counts and drug tests are way less stressful than the months I just have to call in for my refill. All because of a nurse who wants to be cruel for no reason.

      Following one of my Hospital stays....when the Doctor admitted me, he called in every nurse that would attend me and said.....'If she requests pain meds, give them immediately. She has a high pain tolerance and is stubborn (he laughed and so did I), when she finally asks for a painkiller, she needed it an hour ago. She hates Hospitals and we only see her in the practice if she is actually sick or hurting. Listen to her. She will follow your directions as she knows it will allow her to get out sooner." Has another stay at a different hospital. I was there 2 weeks. Nurses were mainly horrific. One good night nurse and 1 good day nurse. Almost died due to them ignoring call buttons. Imagine, being on you back, middle having been split open (and still open with just tressels holding the sides of the gap) so no muscles for lifting your upper body. Suddenly knowing you were going to vomit and unable to sit up and turning on your side will take forever....that becomes a full on panic attack, so add the mental feeling you are about to die. Hitting that button and no response. I barely was able to turn enough and took another almost hour to forcefully pull my body into a sitting position on the edge of the bed. Now exhausted, cold, covering in vomit and no one came for hours....and it was not even a nurse, but an aide. Aide was sweet and horrified. She helped my get clean and recovered in a new gown. At one point, my 3 Sisters and Mom were about to load me in a wheelchair and remove me for my safety.

      There isn't a balance so of course people are going to " step over the line" and "go too far"
      Like it's not enough to say" well if you don't like nursing then don't be a nurse " be cause must people who complain enjoy their job. But putting up with THAT is not apart of the job/ being a nurse. Its being a doormat easy to manipulate and use

She came over and immediately told me that she didn’t appreciate being referred to as a devil. I apologized and stated that it wasn’t intended that way and we moved on. But I’ve always used it as a common phrase meaning “we were just talking about you.” Never thought it would offend anyone. That was the beginning of a very bad year and a half job before I quit.

I had complications in that they accidentally gave me a hernia and gave me a perforated bowl they had to fix in surgery so the crazy amount of pain from.being cut in half and part of my spine replaced with metal brackets was probably enough on its own to need pain meds prescribed to me but the additional pain was not a joke and she just kept saying I should wait and not take it every 4 hours even though doctor said I could have it every 4 hours.

They treat lots of people who are actually hurt like trash because they don't even listen to why they are there. And don't care if you are in pain. It happens a lot to spinal patients too. I knew people who ended their life after the pain they were in and were treated like junkies and couldn't live with it. And it makes me hate junkies because they get high off pain meds. When you are truly in pain the meds just stop the pain and make you able to sleep. And yet patients suffer because no one cares about them because of the junkies. It is so frustrating. I know people with spinal implants to try to control the pain without meds and they are still treated badly.

    I am a nurse and am ashamed to be associated with these bullies!! We are not all like that, really we aren’t!! The saying “It is a beautiful thing when a passion and an occupation comes together” is applicable to so many of us, but unfortunately there is always a shortage of nurses and it is hard to pick and choose if there aren’t that many to choose from. To everyone who has been bullied by a nurse: I am so, so sorry! That is not how it’s supposed to be!!

They piled on criticising me for my teaching (they said I was yelling at students and belittling them 🙄 untrue) - I pushed back and said while I’m open to hear their concerns, i draw the line at getting criticised for simply doing my job. Well! They did not like that! They ganged up on me and put in a complaint to the education department. My principal and the department had my back and recognised that I was being bullied - one of them worked for a different branch of our state government and was reprimanded for bullying, while I was offered free counselling.

Oddly enough, it wasn't a nurse who treated me poorly. It was a PCT (patient care tech). She was mad that she had to keep bringing me a pan with which to relieve myself. A nurse walked up behind her while she was reaming me for it and the nurse jumped to my rescue. I may or may not have smiled when I heard the nurse chew her out.

I was induced and had a morphine shot at one point, so it wasn't a natural birth, but the nurses did seem surprised I didn't want epidural. It wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be, but I definitely was in pain. I sure hope none of them were judging me for complaining about being in pain during labour!

Part of the job is understanding that a healthcare environment is stressful AF for everyone in the hospital, meaning that miscommunications occur OFTEN.

      I arrived on Monday morning and was given a bed with a beautiful scene, overlooking a lake and park. I told the nurse how delighted I was with that. She said "your name came on our list of those coming to the ward. You were so kind when you were here, so we gave you the best place". I was amazed but so good to hear that. It's shocking to see how some patients treat nurses as their slaves. I find that very upsetting. Nurses are on their feet for long periods, and should be treated with kindness and respect.

The second set were horrific. Several times I'd be laying there with my sedation worn off crying, in pain, scared af, and I'd push that call button over and over and they just turned it off and ignored me. Then after the tube was taken out they acted like the smallest things i needed help with were just the biggest pain in the ass. I was so weak I couldn't even hold up a small paper cup. Thank God the nice ones finally came back . I cried when they finally came in and were actually helping me and taking care of me

      Omg my mom almost died bc of the same thing! She has paranoid schizophrenia so it was really hard to get her to go to the doc, especially a hospital. One day her lips were blue, I finally got her to the hospital, she only had 40% oxygen n they said she'd have most likely passed if I let her just stay home bc her fears. Found out she had ARDS, COPD, CHF, the works...even turned septic. They had to stop giving her the psych meds when they intubated her, and she ended up in a medically induced coma for about 3months..followed by rehab/nursing home for 4months. I stayed at her side every minute of every day...except for when my dad came after work, I'd go home and shower. I was so afraid of her coming out of the coma and realizing everything and being frightened of the nurses and docs..thankfully everyone was nice to her for the most part..I'm sure me being there to advocate on her behalf sure helped that tho. I'm so so sorry you had to endure that scary of a situation as well as trashy nurses & docs on top of that. I hope you're well these days, I'd never heard of anyone else having ARDS.

      I hope you’re doing much better now. I had a TIA then a stroke 20 years ago when I was 26, and it was terrifying. I could hear and understand, but I wasn’t saying what I thought I was. My in-laws had given my husband and me a subscription to Reader’s Digest, and they had just published an article on stroke symptoms. So I knew what was happening, but my husband says I told him I was having a migraine and needed to go home to take a nap.
      He knew that I was showing stroke symptoms, so he rushed me to the nearest ER. I walked in and was ignored so my husband rushed me downtown. Everyone took us seriously and rushed me back to get worked up. Unfortunately I had a piece of metal that kept me from getting an MRI, and sometimes CTs don’t pick up TIAs or strokes for 12-24 hours.
      The hospital said I could be having atypical migraine that was causing paralysis and sent me home. My husband knew something was wrong so he called my primary care physician after hours.
      The nurse who answered had decided that I was a hypochondriac and had been mean to me before. I have endometriosis and had to have pregnancy tests done before getting my Depo Provera shot every three months. The nurse let my test sit out so it showed a false positive. So I had to go get blood work to see if I was pregnant and was freaking out because I also have heart issues that made pregnancy dangerous. The nurse decided that my doctor didn’t need to know about my possible TIA. My doctor could have ordered another CT that weekend and gotten me a consult with neurology by admitting me.
      When my primary care found out that her nurse hadn’t told her, she was furious and reported her to the state nursing board on top of firing her. She felt so bad because she would have taken the atypical migraine seriously because of my heart conditions and the birth control I was on. She did make sure that my neurology team take me seriously and made them keep looking for diagnoses after they wanted to blame diet pills. I was very careful about being compliant with my heart problems which caused tachycardia. I never tried any diet pills because I knew they’d make my heart beat erratically. The neurology team did a trans esophageal echocardiogram to look at the back of my heart and found the hole.
      The #1 reason for strokes in young women are diet pills, but there’s other reasons that need to be considered. If the hole in my heart hadn’t been patched, I could have kept having TIAs and strokes. I’m so thankful I had such good medical professionals around me including kick ass nurses. I wish I had written down their names so I could thank them later.
      I had a stroke two days after my TIA. My mom had just flown in to help me get to doctors offices for a work up to see what was wrong. My husband was working for a horrible boss who wouldn’t let him take the Monday after my TIA off to take me to my neurologist. The neurology office called me, but I was too out of it to talk to them. I had the stroke sometime that night or early in the morning. I didn’t feel like getting up when my husband got up super early to go pick my mom up, and I was unaware that I had a paralyzed arm and partially paralyzed leg when I was getting dressed. I’ll never forget the look on their faces when I walked in to the living room to meet them as I was struggling to get dressed because I couldn’t fasten my bra. I put my shirt on over it, and they said my face was drooping.
      My husband’s boss “laid him off” while I was in ICU. That was super shitty, but my husband’s client wanted to hire him which was difficult because of the non compete clause in my husband’s contract. The client was working on buying out contract, but the lay off nullified the contract. The client hired my husband the next day so I would have continuous health insurance coverage. Back then if you had gaps in coverage insurance companies could refuse to cover anything relating to a previous uncovered injury or illness. So everything worked out better.
      I healed quickly and recovered almost completely. I was diagnosed with a blood clot disorder and had a Patent Foramen Ovale hole in my heart that let a clot form then go to my brain. The hospital I was at had a cardiologist who had just gotten a patch FDA approved, so I was one of the first patients to get the patch done by catheterization instead of open heart surgery. They even let me watch the procedure, and I let all the medical students watch. The medical student assigned to me was amazing and explained everything and printed out pages from different medical textbooks and journals that explained everything. This was back when most of the medical literature was in books. She stood beside me and held my hand. I have an allergy to Valium so they didn’t want to sedate me plus I wanted to watch. So they just loaded me up with pain meds so I didn’t feel anything.
      The most important thing my neurology team told me for my recovery was to try drinking lots of coffee. There were a few studies showing that the chemicals in coffee helped the brain recover and form new neural pathways. The coffee could be decaf and mixed with different milks and sweeteners. So my husband would get me a Starbucks Venti decaf with extra espresso shots every morning. His sister took her vacation time to come up to help us as my mom flew home soon to look after her elderly dogs 🙄. SIL would also brew a pot of coffee for me. I was unable to walk around much because I was having a hard time keeping my blood from getting too thin. I was only allowed to walk to pee, go from my sofa to bed, and to appointments.
      I recovered very quickly, and my doctors were so impressed that they got my permission to write up my case as another patient helped b coffee in medical journals.
      So drink your coffee! I hope you’re doing really well. I’m so sorry you were treated so badly.

    My daughter was in labour and a nurse had the audacity to ask her if she was on drugs cause she was acting erratically and couldn’t answer her questions. She was in a PAIN from contractions and in LABOR to give birth

      Asking somebody who's behaving erratically even if they're in pain if they're on drugs is not a unreasonable thing. Just because it's a question you don't like doesn't mean it's unreasonable. Plus when you're going through traumatic event like birth. If you're on something they need to know that. Do you know how many drug addicts nurses see in delivery rooms. Just because you personally know your daughter is irrelevant. That nurse didn't. You know what she does know how most pregnant women act.

      After my first C-section I was able to get up and move around, walking distances (regularly down to the NICU), but I think it also had to do with the fact that I was able to rest when needed...
      Because after I had my second C-section, my little one was in the NICU again and the father had bailed on me months before, so it was all on me. I was exclusively breastfeeding so every 2 hours I had to travel from my room to the NICU, which wasn't very close. The sleep deprivation and pain was hitting me hard so even after 72 hours in the hospital I still was having someone transport me at times to the NICU. Yeah maybe I was a needy patient but it was literally out of necessity. I was in so much pain and I was delirious but was determined to continue taking care of my own baby in the NICU as much as possible. Trying to establish breastfeeding early on is important if it's something that you want to do and I was committed.
      A couple times this NICU nurse made snotty remarks about "by 24-hours post C-section I should certainly be able to walk on my own unassisted every time like every other patient." ... I just felt so belittled but I persevered and kept asking for help when I felt like I needed it... And the NICU nurses weren't even the ones transporting me so I don't know what she was even annoyed about. 🥴

The head floor nurse showed me where to get him snacks and ice and how to pop out the little bed. It was a trauma floor and lots of yelling. First night, he was out of ICU after surgery, he woke up screaming, “Help me!” He had spiked a fever of around 104 and was hallucinating. They got him fixed up and were supposed to check his temperature hourly as a result. Me being traumatized and a bit anxious,lest it happens again, asked the nurse if she had taken his temperature yet, once. She said no but she would. She hadn’t even checked his file. She was getting ready to leave and I again asked and she got snotty with me. Then she pulled me outside and proceeded to berate me for questioning her. I did the only thing I could do in that situation. I got petty and spoke to the head floor nurse and made a formal complaint. I didn’t have to see her for the rest of the week.

    With my first baby, my roommate told me the nurses were complaining about me after giving birth. My call bell was broken and because I don’t speak French, couldn’t find a nurse to help me. My doctor was on vacation, so one of het partners took half of her patients and the other partner took the other half. So she was extra busy and was relying on the nurses to help. I could a bad internal infection on the stitches the gynaecologist had sewn. I couldn’t get out of bed to get to the bathroom. My normal body temperature is, what they now have announced to the world, on the low side. The nurse took my temperature and to get it was slightly over what they took for normal. If someone had read my chart, it told them my normal temperature. My child’s father owned a business, so didn’t show up often. My milk wasn’t coming in but the nurses got mad that I wasn’t getting up to feed my child. The father of my son told them to bottle feed my son because I wasn’t well. My roommate had them change the call button but I still couldn’t get them to understand I was in extreme pain. She helped me get out of bed and into to the bathroom, which was only a few feet from my bed. The doctor came in the falling day. She listened to me, took blood and showed the results to the head nurse. My infection was so bad, that she was afraid I wasn’t going to make it. Got medication, luckily I’m a fast healer. Never saw a complete turn around if people coming to apologize and actually had a nurse who was bilingual sent to me. I was a geriatric mother, 37, which can lead to many problems. The nurses didn’t like that I wasn’t eating the food they gave me. You get what the previous patient ordered. I had three days of mac and cheese for 2 meals a day. I detest Mac and cheese. I couldn’t go to the cafeteria to get food, so had to rely on my partner to bring g food. First meal was the second day after giving birth of take out chicken. Cold btw because he ate his first before going to the hospital. Everyone but my doctor and roommate were AHOLES!

      when we did a tour of the hospital before our first child was born (it was a group tour), the volunteer who did the tour was telling horror stories about what she saw/heard during labors. And she made a comment that most of the women were overdramatic and she wanted to punch them. This wasn't a teen, this was a middle aged woman. Someone complained because we'd heard when we went into labor, that she was no longer volunteering at the hospital.

    As a health care professional I can assure you that in my experience we had more pressing things to deal with than gossiping about our patients. In my entire career it was extremely rare when a nurse would actually gossip about a patient. Vent, yes, but there’s a difference between blowing off steam in a frustrating situation and just being nasty about a patient. Btw, when no names, dates, or any identifiable information is discussed, it’s not a breach of patient privacy/confidentiality.

I'm just like that as a person. I did push it once and that's when I made a mess because I dropped down towels to take a shower after labor... I did try to clean it myself before hand but the nurse came in and saw me bent over and she about flipped a LID! "Honey! What are you doing! Don't bend over! Are you okay?!" Meanwhile, I'm pale and tired... and I just smile, "Y-yeah... I was trying to take a shower on my own... the towel dropped and I went to pick it up and Woosh! I'm so sorry!" "HONEY! Omg... Please sit down! This is our job to help you, PLEASE sit down!" I started to cry because I made a mess and she hugged me and told me it was alright. I loved that nurse so much.

    The 1st video reminds me of when I got a nurse fired. I have a VERY BAD phobia of needles, and when I arrived I informed the doctors/staff about it as I didn't want to be overly stressed, as it would cause me to get violently ill, and I had already been sick for 3 days prior non-stop. Never mind making their jobs a bit easier with a bit of a heads up. My SO even vouched for this, so a note was made not to let me see the needle, and I'd be fine.
    First set of blood tests went fine. IV went fine. Then came a second set of blood tests, the nurse comes in, looks at my chart, huffs, kinda slams the stuff down.
    I was kinda out of it, so my SO talked to her about the blood tests/keep the needles out of my eyesight. this nurse gave no fucks, and started pulling out the needles and stuff in front of me.
    Cue my freak out, where I'm BEGGING her to move the needles. She tells me to 'grow up, and stop being a baby'
    (Edit to add: I don't remember ANYTHING after this was said.)
    I apparently climbed into my SOs lap, my SO went into 'protect mode', carried me out into the hallway with my IV tree SCREAMING for the nurses boss while she's yelling 'it's not that big of a deal!!1!!!'
    Boss nurse comes, talks to my SO, checks my heart rate for the last 5 mins (it went from around 65-ish bpm to 120+ in less then a minute, while I'm laying in a bed).
    Checked my chart, saw the 'DO NOT let patient see needles/keep calm' note.
    Head nurse was PISSED. Turned to the nurse and fired this girl on the spot. Took care of me the rest of the time I was in the hospital doped up on all the drugs.
    SO found out via the nurses that the 1st nurse's bedside manner was HORRIBLE. Her behavior had gotten her in trouble, and written up a lot, and she was on her final warning.

I work in health care. I'm a mental health professional and I've never seen such a toxic group of people in my life. It's like they stopped maturing at high school. I've worked at like seven hospitals and three different countries. If there's nurses there's toxicity. So that labor and delivery video does not surprise me at all.
      Now just for clarification, I'm not saying all. Because don't make general statements like that. I'm just saying nursing seems to attract a certain type of person. Not all but a lot of them. I won't even say it was the majority of them. But labor and deliveries are the worst. All I'm going to say. Find a lot of nursing students in the labor and delivery cuz they think it's going to be playing with babies all day but that's not the reality.

      Thank you for what you do. As someone with a critical progressive and degenerative disease, I have had hundreds of nurses in my lifetime. I can only count on less than one hand the truly awful nurses I’ve had. Most definitely less than 1%. 99%+ have been wonderful. I am even alive today because tow nurses risked their jobs and went against doctors orders to save my life. I’d be dead if it wasn’t for them risking their own livelihood to save me. Nurses are incredible, and do not get the appreciation they deserve. It is a thankless job, and as a patient I try to thank nurses every chance I get because I know they don’t hear it enough.
      I only wish my experience with doctors was the same. Unlike nursing, it’s the reverse where 99% have been bad, and 1% are exceptionally good doctors who genuinely care. My disease is rare, very complex, and not well understood by most doctors. It’s been a lifelong nightmare to try and find doctors who don’t have an ego complex and are comfortable with not always knowing the answer, but doing their best to help anyway, rather than the 99% who try to flip it back onto the patient and play the blame game so they don’t have to face or admit the fact that they don’t know the answer. I know my disease is difficult, and I am completely fine with doctors not always knowing what to do. The good ones can admit that with ease, and I am grateful for it. After a lifetime of searching, I have a handful of exceptional doctors who I can fully trust with my life and I thank unceasingly, but it definitely hasn’t been an easy road getting there.
      Fortunately nurses have always been the ones to pick up the slack and advocate for me no matter what, more than anyone else. If only more doctors valued what they had to say and actually listened to them. Unlike doctors, nurses spend time intimately with their patients for hours. They see with their own eyes what is going on and what issues need to be addressed, and often know best what the patient needs. If nurses had been the ones in charge of making many of my medical decisions, I likely would have had a better quality of life.
      So thank you, on behalf of all of your patients, for being an exceptional nurse who genuinely cares about your patients. And if your patients may not always say thank you, just know that they ARE thankful for the kindness and advocacy you have shown them in their time of need, and they will always remember it. I certainly do.

    I came out of a quadruple bypass. Nurse told me one of my meds might cause confusion and tell them if I feel confused. When the day came for my release I scheduled 2 different people to come pick me up. 2 different names I told the nurses. First person shows up grabs my bag and we go out to the hall. This person had no experience with hospital stays. I did and said how weird is was they didn’t have a wheelchair for me. We got outside and she went to get the car. Meanwhile a nurse comes out and starts screaming at me for trying to leave without getting my paperwork and being properly checked out. So person 1 drives up in MY car. I asked where that car came from. “That’s your car” was her answer. The nurse heard this. But still just turned back to me getting in my face and saying “you know what you did”. I was brought back inside and didn’t have a clue why I didn’t catch why I couldn’t go home. They still released me that day so the 2nd person I had arranged to pick me up (in my confusion) showed up I went home. I didn’t have a clear idea of what happened until 3 days after. When you are confused you may not know it. You would think a nurse would be on the lookout for confusion and not expect the patient to recognize it. I can only imagine what that nurse said about me.

    I was a teen mother and after my son was born the restroom was down the hall ( before they remodeled the hospital.) I needed help getting up because I had a c section after 43 hours of labor. The nurse got mad at me for asking for help. She yelled at me to get my lazy ass up on my own. I never forgave her.

      Wow. That's horrible. I'm sorry. I've never had kids and I would hope no matter the reasoning I would always help the patient to the bathroom. Especially because we don't want you to fall. One of the nurses told me about when she had one of her babies she was so worn out after and her nurses bathed her and took care of her.

    I had a patient misunderstand me in regards to pain management… in my rush to get her down to the OR it came across like I was being dismissive..we had a very genuine conversation hearing each other out.. I felt terrible that I said what I did in a way that it came across like she was pain seeking…I hate that nurses feel that way about people and the fact it doesn’t make them feel bad is beyond me
    She actually took the time to listen to my side and I heard hers as well
    I complimented her on her strength in standing up to someone she felt was being a bully … most mature conversation I’ve had with a patient and she was only in her 20s
    If patients and nurses could talk the way we talked it out… so much would change

    As someone who had to watch their nurse literally BEG FOR HOURS in order for me to get a small cup of water and was yelled at for it by the head nurse, they needed to be fired ASAP. When you're at the hospital you're at their mercy and it makes patients not even want to disclose how they're feeling if they knew this is what nurses thought of them. You have some amazing ones and then you have ones like these. They clearly got into nursing for money.

    I had a doctor and 2 nurses loudly talking about me in front of a bunch of other healthcare people, patients and family members saying I was attention and med seeking. I was admitted dozens of times over 9 months with several symptoms and I almost died. It turns out I had serotonin syndrome (serotonin toxicity) from being on a couple prescribed meds over the years. It’s rare but can happen and if it wasn’t for my primary care doc I wouldn’t be here right now. The hospital doc and nurses were "talked to" but never reprimanded for anything. I was just glad I didn’t have to go back there.

      My sister had a similar experience 15+ years ago that I happened to witness. She had an undiagnosed autoimmune disease that was causing her extreme pain and intestinal distress. She called me to meet her at the ER because she was freaking out (vomiting and shitting herself) while driving herself to the ER. I was an hour away and I arrived at the ER about 20 minutes after they got her checked in and was able to be with her when the ER doctor came in for the first time. At this point they've given her an IV and some anti-nausea meds so at least she isn't vomiting everywhere.
      The ER dr comes in asks a few questions about her symptoms then flat out tells her that he thinks she's a drug addict looking for a fix because she had been to the ER with similar symptoms several times over the previous few months. Turns out that her immune system was destroying her intestines. It's extremely painful. Every time I think back to that ER doctor I get irrationally angry about it all over again.

      @@poultryinmotion5721 I’m sorry your sister had to go through that and glad she had you there with her. With the increasing numbers of med seeking I can slightly understand why they have to be cautious. I just think some of them are a bit lazy and rude. They ran every test they could numerous times but failed to ask me about any of the meds I was currently on and it would’ve only taken a few minutes of listening with another few minutes of thinking and maybe an internet search, especially since the doc at the hospital claimed to be the best doctor ever and "oh so smart." I now need extensive dental work done to fix the damage done to my teeth from the constant vomiting while I was sick. I brushed my teeth several times a day when I had the energy to stand but stomach acid can be brutal. I also suffered bad damage to my esophagus and stomach mostly, but had some minor issues with my liver and heart that are now better. My whole time I was sick was from October 2020 to July/August 2021.

      When I had my son in June, 1992, the nurses who took care of us were so wonderful! My son was born healthy, but he contracted Group B strep infection after he was born and became very sick, very fast. I didn't get to hold him long before he turned a dark, dusky purple and the nurses rushed him to NICU where he spent over a week with tubes running out of him.
      I had already bought a breast pump, so I expressed my milk and bringing it to the hospital. I insisted they feed him breast milk only, no formula. My doctor said it would make no difference, and I noticed the nurse in the room looked at him incredulously. After the doctor left the room, she told me to keep bringing my milk, as the antibodies in the colostrum could make all the difference! She assured me that no one would give him formula as long as he had my breast milk, with my antibodies.
      I found out later that my baby had been given only a 25% chance of surviving his first night. Those NICU nurses took excellent care of my baby and he made a full recovery. They also took good care of me, and were always encouraging. They treated me like a mom who loved her baby and would do anything to help him thrive.

This was all happening over text and turning her down was probably the only smart thing he ever did.

    My 1st son was born in a cabin. The umbilical cord was prolapsed (started coming out before he did) and got pinched off by his head. The midwife did an exceptional job of giving me exact comprehensive instruction, she pushed his head back just enough to move the cord out of the way, and said, "you gotta get him out of there NOW!" One and 1/2 minutes later he was in her arms & she was giving him Infant CPR. She saved his life. Then she & my husband got in the car and dashed to the hospital. I followed with my mom as soon as I was ready. They had him in the baby ICU and after I made sure he was okay I was given a room.
    Awhile later the midwife came into my room to tell me the OB-Gyn doctor wanted to check him out and needed my permission. She was furious. I asked her why and she reluctantly told me the doctor had made the comment, "Home deliveries are for pizzas."
    What a dick!

      I owe my life to one of my nurses as well. I've been a nurse for 15 years, so I'm usually super quiet when I'm in the hospital because I don't want to "bother" my nurse. Unfortunately, this is to my own detriment too often. In this particular case, I had been admitted 8 days earlier for biliary pancreatitis, and my doctor had made me NPO (nothing by mouth) for the last 3 days. The 3rd day of NPO I got up to go to the bathroom while my nurse was seeing my roommate and as I walked back to my bed I couldn't keep my balance and ended up half falling and half waking into the wall. My nurse and I thought it was odd but brushed it off, and I got back into bed. He gave me a medicine that I had to rinse and spit out, and I fell asleep as I was spitting it out. Then he knew something was wrong. This nurse had worried with me for 5 days straight and went to the doctor immediately and told him that I wasn't acting right and he could not keep me awake. They drew arterial blood gases and multiple other venous labs and found that I was literally starving to death. The doctor that had put me on NPO had neglected to switch my IV solution to include a glucose component. This resulted in my body receiving absolutely no type of nutrition for 72 hours. When they switched my IV solution to Lactated Ringers I woke up fairly quickly and made a decent recovery. If my nurse hadn't been paying attention and had just written my behavior off to just being tired (which is exactly what I thought in my whole 5 minutes of consciousness that day) then I would not have lived.

      My mom went to something similar while giving birth to my little sister. The nurse put her hand inside and said it wasn't the time and left as soon her shift finished. My mom knew it was the time and when the doctor from the next shift came, my mom was BLUE. The pelvic (I think it's the name) was blocking her way out, it didn't stretch as needed. Fortunately, my mom was able to do a safe and natural birth thanks to the doctor. Idk where the nurse is now, but I hope she lost her job. Today, my sis is very healthy and full of energy. ♡
