I’ll accept a brutal course of treatment or poor treatment at the hands of medical professionals for this question.

    As an american, it’s about every time I’ve sought medical help in the last two decades, only a handful of times.

    E-rooms will misdiagnose you with something that isn’t even close to fitting your symptoms just to get you out of there, then send you a 2000 dollar bill for it.

    I remember getting wisdom teeth yanked out, this might not have been the dentists fault, I was doing some prescription opiates, and they gave me fentanyl and whatever, I of course didn’t tell them of the big 200 mg morphine tabs we were getting. So I wasn’t fully anesthasized as I should have been. I was half awake with mouth full of gauze as the dentist is yanking them out, why, won’t, this, tooth, come, out, type of memory.
