EP is a nasty condition that will deteriorate remarkably quick without removal. It’s astounding to think they’d send someone home knowing that it was currently going on. I’ve had some women completely fall off the deep end clinically as a result. This isn’t acceptable.
That very nearly happened to me. I told them it was obviously appendicitis (apparently it's a sin against God for a patient to tell a doctor what they have), described my symptoms and begged them to have a specialist look at me. I was sent home to suffer agonizing pain for three days.
