I ditched that nasty hospital. Have been admitted to a much much much better hospital. The difference in care is shocking. Being kept overnight for observation. Received first round of steroids. Bleeding is nearly gone. Feeling much better all around.
Thank god for dh's I.phiz-one. Thanks for very kid words. You cats rock my world!

Thank god you've changed hospitals. No one should be treated like that, and not a woman with a suddenly risky pregnancy.
You are constantly in my thoughts. I am so glad you are getting better care. Fucking fuckers!!!!!
holy fucking shit. anna and i are reading this and we're both crying and feeling sick. i was thinking about you all day and no wonder you didn't get my message. it's 1am your time. hopefully you'll get this message. If you're up you can call ANYTIME. I haven't changed my mind: I KNOW you are going to be OK and this baby is going to be OK. i wish i could punch those dumbass doctors in no subjective way.
love you. s
I am so glad!!!I didn't even get a chnce yet to comment on the other post- I fell asleep early again last night afer a long ass day- but I was going to tell you to just go to another hospital & f--- your nasty attending/resident combo!
I am so so glad you are feeling better & the quality of care from hospital to hospital is amazing in this city... I hope this trend of good quality care continues.

Yea! I hope all goes well in the new place.
I am sooo glad - there can be a world of difference between good and bad hospitals and doctors and just plain good care and common sense. Be an advocate! And listen to your body! Hope you have many weeks and months to go!
Hey hun! Thanks so much for the update. I've been on pins and needles waiting to hear from you after your last post. I'm SO glad that you took the initiative to advocate for yourself and get that care that you need and DESERVE. I'm very happy to hear that you're being treated by true medical PROFESSIONALS...amazing how rare they are, isn't it?!
You'll continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. *hugs*
So glad you are finally being taken seriously.
