I always thought that I have a high threshold for pain and can endure anything until it goes away. However, today I was proven wrong. I succumbed to severe abdominal pain, which led me to my crying that I had to be rushed to the hospital's A&E. Never, in my entire life have I gone to A&E to see a doctor. My department looked like it had an emergency while getting me there! In fact, when the doctor was examining me, he mentioned that the area of my abdomen, which was hurting, was very tender and he could tell I was in pain.
Nevertheless, I am appreciative of the help and concern that my colleagues offered. Boss called up the head of A&E for me to be seen as soon as possible. When I arrived, the Nursing Manager/Clinician was there to help me. I did not have to wait very long to be seen by the doctor. I'm thankful that there wasn't too much emergency despite the high volume of people in the waiting area. In fact, the entire process took about 30minutes from registration to collecting my medication. I felt like I had priority and its amazing!
Anyway, to all concerned readers, I am still very much alive despite nursing a gastric flu. Its no fun at all!! And I want to be well soon!
