Tom, I had a bad experience today at an urgent care place. I'm sick. No covid, no flu, strep, or any of that. Just sick. They.....eh, long story, but, my blood pressure was a little elevated when I walked in since I had taken my pills 20 minutes before. They swabbed the top of my head through my nose, and swabbed my throat down to my anus, then put me in a room for 2 1/2 hours. Finally the PA gal comes in, and tells me I'm negative for everything. Looks in my ears, up my nose, down my throat, and all that. Says I have a virus, allergies, and need steroids, cough medicine, nasal spray, and rest. When I asked about how it all works with my blood pressure medicine, she said it'll escalate it some, but it'll be fine. Then left.
After another 25 minutes of sitting there, I got pissed. Went out to the desk where they were all playing grab ass, and joking, and told them I wanted my paperwork so I could go home. They perked right up then, and within 5 minutes, I had one gal sticking me in the butt with a needle while another was handing her a blood pressure thing through the door while my skivvies are half masted.
Well, as it turned out, my blood pressure was extremely high, and as I Walked by, that PA gal recommended that I go to the ER because of my blood pressure. I told her what I thought, and left.
OK, so I got the shot in the butt, and she called in 3 prescriptions for me. None of which, according to the great googly moogly, work with my daily pills.
So, once again, I called my regular doctors office today, since they didn't have time for me today, and explained the .....you know.. the thing.
So.. ......I'll go see this insurance milking dirtbag at 9 am, and see what happens from there.
I swear, I'm gonna have a stroke, or heart attack from trying to prevent it!!
