Why I hate Hospitals/Doctors so very much

[captain_slinky]

Because the tightness in my chest and the shortness of breath continues, we went to the Emergency Room last night.

EKG and Blood Test show my heart is juuuuuust fine, no problems there, they have no idea what could be wrong with me, suggested i go to a heart specialist for a Stress Test "just in case", prescribed some Omeprizol for if it might just be Heart burn.

I don't think I've ever had a doctor able to tell me what's wrong unless it was something blatantly obvious like "Oh! The reason you're bleeding so much is because your thumb has been cut off!" Everything else is "I have no idea, let's throw some pills and money at it to see if we can make it stop".

So now it's looking more and more like I may have done something bad to my Lap Band, which would be SUPER BAD. And I'm really angry at myself if that's the case :(

Going to Lap Band doctor at Noon, prepared to cry A LOT :(

I stay away from doctors as much as possible for that very reason. Yeah, sometimes it's warranted (chest pain certainly falling into that category!) but I've had enough bad experiences to know how that doctor shiz tends to work out. *enter tirade about capitalistic flawed American medical system here*

Anyhoo, I do hope you figure this out, stat. :\
