I was just in the hospital for a stomach ache. I went first to a walk-in doctor on a Saturday morning. I had had three days of stomach pains. On the second night i took laxatives and it flushed me out but the pain was still there. I felt embarrassed going to a doctor for a stomach ache at all. The doctor also acted like it was nothing. "Well, I'll test your blood, since you came in.." She comes back, "Your white count is kinda high. You should go to the ER." I thought to myself, "Sit in the Emergency room with a stomach ache? I'll never get in." So i went to the smallest hospital I could think about. Probably a good idea by the way.
I ended up having appendicitis and had my appendix removed.
This could be a deadly condition if it ruptures inside of you. Mine did and they washed m
e out.
Many in this world don't get these "inconvenient" doctors visits.... and they die. One of many preventable illnesses that kill 30,000 children every day. Some are more easily preventable....like starvation.
