yea i would pretty annoyed too.
i was misdiagnosed in the ER a few years ago. they sent me on my way with a script for nexium and told me i had "peptic ulcer disease". i have never been so goddamn sick in my life, i missed almost 3 weeks of work because i couldn't keep any fluids down (this was AFTER i went to the ER with severe abdominal pain). finally my boyfriend at the time told me to stop taking the nexium because he figured it was the meds making me sick and sure enough, i was perfect within 2 days of not taking the nexium. it was the meds the whole time fucking me up and not only that, but i followed up with my primary care doctor and he was appauled at what the ER doc said/gave me as a script. i didn't have an ulcer it was more like some sort of bacterial thing in my stomach/viral thing going around.
and i would also like to point out that this was during a time when i had an HMO health care plan (not the good kind that pay well) and so they didn't really do any in depth blood work and just gave it a guess probably based on some of my symptoms. it's always about fuckin money lol
