I was frustrated with the communication between the doctors and the rest of the staff. After I went through initial tests and found I wasn't in immediate danger, I was put in a room in the emergency observation area. They hooked me up to some monitors and left me. After a couple hours, I called the nurse and asked for a blanket and if I could take my boots off. Then asked about where the restroom was. They said I could unhook the monitors and go when I needed to. I tried hooking the monitors back up but did something wrong cus they kept beeping and had to call the nurse to correct it. I then asked to turn down the lights and for something to drink. They were ok with helping me but I had to ask for everything. When I finally spoke to the cardiologist, the following day at noon, she told me she was going to order a stress test and explained that it would probably take about 3 hours to review the results and if everything looked good, I would be released. I never saw her again and although I felt the stress test and all the previous tests were good. , I was told that they hadn't been reviewed yet and I probably wasn't going home. I ordered breakfast for 7am and after I asked why I didn't have it yet an hour and half after I requested it, they told me I was NPO cus I might need another test. I was never consulted with and had to insist on speaking to a doctor so I knew what was going on. It took 18 hours for me to get an actual room and bed. Also, was asked if any new drugs would be needed,would I want them sent to my pharmacy or the Hospital pharmacy to pick up when discharged. I said I wanted my pharmacy. When they actually did prescribe something, they had one sent to the hospital and one sent to my pharmacy. I went to pick up the one at the hospital and they had just received it so told me it was going to be anotger 15 - 20 minutes. I told them I didn't want to wait again and asked them to send it to my pharmacy. They said I had to have my pharmacy request it. I waited a day and requested it, but my pharmacy said they told them there wasn't anything to transfer. I am calling the doctor again today to find out out what the deal is .
