Last week I was out walking when suddenly my back went into acute pain, that had me bending over, looking at the ground to find a position that was less painful. I knew I couldn't go any further, so called my son to come and get me and take me to the hospital. The triage nurse was excellent, and within minutes I was in a wheelchair waiting for the Dr. About 5 minutes later an apprentice doctor arrived, I don't remember that they introduced themselves, but I was in too much pain to notice. They seemed to be questioning me correctly, and they decided to give me 2 different pain medications orally as well as an injection of an anti-inflammatory drug.
This part is the strangest though. As the drugs took hold and I was able to stand up straight again, I recall they said to me quite clearly that they don't like me at all. I was dumbfounded!! I just said to them "You don't like me?" and they replied No, and was on their way.
Thank you very much, if it was up to me you never would become a real Dr
