[quote=Anonymous][quote=doodlebug][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This stuff blows my mind.  I have literally been to the ER twice in my 50+ years of life.  Once due to an allergic reaction - I probably didn't even NEED to go, but I didn't want to risk it, and another time because I thought one of my children had appendicitis and it was 3:30am.  It's called an EMERGENCY room.  It seems as if people treat it like it's a walk-in doctor's office/clinic.  I do NOT understand it.[/quote]

I agree. I was there recently when my husband was experiencing symptoms of a heart attack. The majority of people in there were there for garden-variety ailments. This was on a weekday morning--not even a weekend. [/quote] How do you know what the majority of people were there for? Did you take a poll? Last time I went to the ER it was 12:30 am and I had a nasty cut from work. I bled so much I never even saw the waiting room, was escorted directly inside. (Once I signed all the obligatory paper work with my hemorrhaging hand that is.) Totally get you OP. I have a friend or two like this as well. The really fun one will post check ins from the hospital, give no reason for the visit, get all the obligatory hope all is well notes (she's pregnant so everyone hopes the baby is OK) and then she'll come back later and post that she was there for a class or something like that.[/quote]

I'm the first person quoted.  I'm referring to "friends" and "acquaintances" of mine and other people on FB and social media that I interact with.  So, I know what they were there for because they posted about it.  [/quote]
