Hour Hates Hospitals

Hour · 01-17-2009, 06:21 AM

Well I woke up this morning in ALOT of pain and ended up going to hospital. My mum is a doctor, so she sort of knew what it might have been. A Testical infection. That's right! I had to tell my mum to take me to the hospital for it.

Anyway we get there and I just end up spewing up in the bathroom and looking like a heroin addict who's just overdosed since I had no shoes on, ripped up jeans and a really small shirt. Didn't help that I was sweating like a mad man.

After sitting for a short time, like five minutes, I get taken into a room where I was questioned and what not. He then gives me a STRONG pain killer. And I am so thankfull for it. Anyway, he then sends me off to get a sonar ray thing, that thing that looks inside pregnant woman. We wait there for thirty minutes then I go get it done. Embarassing.

After that we head to the waiting room to wait for a doctor to give me an injection and whatnot. Guess how long we waited.

Four fucking hours.

And what's worse is that they forgot about me!!! If it wasn't for the pain killer I would have been yelling at them to hurry the fuck up. Anywho, after four hours of watching shitty movies I finally get seen by the doctor and he takes me into the room.

So he asks me the same questions the past two doctors have asked me. Then he says I need an injection, and medication. He then goes and tells a nurse to get the injection. My mum is with me and is watching said nurse prepearing the injection. And he is doing is EXTREMLY SLOW. And it wasn't even my injection! Eventually after thirty minutes the guy finally comes to the room with the injection. Asks some questions then finally does the injection. In my ass.

He then tells us we have to wait ANOTHER thirty minutes to see if there were any side effects. So we wait.

Then we go pay for the meds and the receptionist gives us a ten dollar coupon for waiting so long. And a coupon to go back there!!! Stuff going back there again!

So that's my rant over.

Sorry to hear about your balls bro. haha, did they say how it could of happened? What did that kind of pain feel like, it hurts me thinkin about it.

Hour · 01-17-2009, 06:35 AM

They never actually said how it could happen. They asked if I had had sex recently, and I haven't since december. It just happened haha. And they asked for a pee sample, but that would of revealed something else. haha! So I just said I couldn't pee cause it hurt! haha

The pain. Oh god that pain. Think of it like this. Every second your balls feel like they have just been punched. And when you touch them it feels like you got stabbed. And that is exactly how it felt, not even exagerating. I was crying on the ground at home in pain from it. And on the drive to the hospital I nearly bit through the seat belt!

i feel kinda awkward saying this, but i hope your balls feel better...

i had a similar problem with the hospital one time. not quite as extreme, but they kept screwing around with us. one would hope that by now we would have a better, more efficient way for hospitals to work. this waiting for hours bit is bullshit.

Hour · 01-17-2009, 10:32 AM

Yes I hate it!

The worst part is, when I was waiting four hours, they were calling other people up who were there after me!!!

OMG dude, I'm a woman and that still sounds absolutely terrible. Sorry about your testicles and I hope they feel better. I didn't even know you could get a testicular infection without some kind of a wound!

I feel you on the waiting though. I got "forgotten" as a kid in the ER when I went in with a severe kidney infection. I actually woke my parents up in the middle of the night and told them tearfully that I was dying, lol...but when I got to the emergency room, I waited in the general waiting room an hour, then they stuck me in an examination room and forgot me for *another* three hours.

I just sobbed and screamed my head off until my mother finally snapped and went off on the nursing staff. I hadn't even got a painkiller yet...

Yeah...yay for the American healthcare system. *eyeroll*

damn that sucks dude. Ball infection. Doesn't sound pleasant. Funny thing is after all that crap they expect you to pay

**allenlovesgreen** · 01-17-2009, 04:21 PM

Oh, that sucks HOUR, specially because you had to wait four HOURs

It sounds painful indeed. The most pain I've ever had in my balls was when I was ridding my bike and there was a speed bump, you know what happened when I went trough the speed bump

. Once I got home my left nut was hurting so bad but after a week the pain went away.

Weird that you don't know how you got the infection. Testicle infection is also known as Epididymitis and the cause is usually a bacterial infection. The bacteria usually get to the epididymis by moving back through the urethra (urine passes through the urethra from the bladder). The exact bacteria are identified in about 80% of cases.

Two main groups of organisms cause epididymitis: sexually transmitted organisms and coliforms (organisms that live in the intestines).

* In men younger than 35 years, the causes are usually the same organisms that cause the sexually transmitted diseases of chlamydia (responsible for nearly 50-60% of cases) and gonorrhea.

* In those older than 35 years and men who participate in anal intercourse, the causes are usually coliforms, which are bacteria (such as Escherichia coli) that live in the intestines. These organisms also cause bladder infections.

* Chemical epididymitis (rare) is inflammation caused by the backward flow of urine when exercising or having sex with a full bladder.

well when i went on a field trip for rotc we went to the airforce base...after being their prolly bout 2 hrs we were going to go to the flightline. well anyway we couldnt take our bus we had 2 use 2 the airforce bus well when we got on it their were 8 seats in the back their were folded downlike in a suv in the back that were needed to use. so i was given the task of finding the latches and getting them up as i was looking for the latch a kid found it and took it upon himself to lift the seat up well my finger was inbetween the hinge(cause i was looking for a button or latch) well anyway when he lifted it my finger got caught off from the nuckle. all i did was grab my stump and sit their eyes glazed over and say "this is the worst pain i have felt in my life" as i see blood spurting on the ground. their was about a pile 12 inch by 12 inch square with blood on the ground. well when we go to the clinic on base all the bastards give me i a fucking tylonal wtf is that gonna do for a missing finger? well they said they cant do anything about it but they called a ambulance wich took about 30 mins 2 get their. when i finnally got to the hospitial i felt dizzy from loss of blood. and they gave me a perkaset. which helped but not much
it took them bastards 3 more hours 2 finally come in and sew it on. the accident happened at 11 am i didnt even get to the hospitial till 1 o clock and it was 4 when they finnally sewed it back on. and not even good enough i had 2 go back and have 2 surgery's to correct their mistakes. and then we get the bill for hospital,and ambulance 4,000 dollars after insurance 15,000 before. wtf? for prolly 30 mins worth of actual work....i hate hospitals and now 3 months later my finger is almost all the way healed but is about 1/2 inch shorter and crooked. and i have no feeling 0% cant feel hot cold touch water anything. and its my index finger so im still getting used to typing with it. and its very sensitive. anyway it would have never happened if the air force would have lifted up the godamn seats and been ready for us students..."END RANT"

anyway hospitals suck....and so does the military.

...But not that.

It didn't hurt that bad, felt like I slammed it in a door. Painful, but not unbearable. They just sewed the open wound shut and sent me home with Tylenol III w/ Codine.

The best way to get service at a hospital is to be wheeled into the ER by an ambulance crew. Otherwise you wait hours and hours.

I don't know what getting your balls smashed feels like, as I have none. I only know women laugh and men cry when it happens.
