rantings and ravings with little cohesion and plenty of pretension

 

Abusing the Free Health Care System

So.

I had a bit of an adventure yesterday. My original plan was to work until l 7 and then meet up with Andrea's bachorlette party, which would have been a lot of fun, but my body had a very different idea.

Supposedly when I was at work (it's only supposedly because I don't remember this at all) I had a seizure. All I remember is helping someone at the counter and then being loaded into an ambulance. The ambulance drivers poked and prodded me on our trip to the hospital. And they let me call Amy and Andrea to let them know what was going on.

I hung out in the waiting room for awhile. Tried to call my mom, and then hung out with Amy and Steve. I had a lovely wheel chair and some blankets so I was as happy as I could be I think. Eventually I got a room and Amy came with me, and I got poked and prodded some more. They took me for a chest x-ray and a CT scan and then I fell asleep. Eventually I was woken up and given a doctors number to call on Monday. Then they sent us home. Jenn came and picked us up and brought that adorable puppy with her, and I went straight to bed.

All in all a very weird experience. My memory is pretty spotty for the day, so I guess it was a seizure and not fainting. But who knows really. I actually would have thought it was all a dream if I hadn't woken up with my wrist tag still on.
