[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Sometimes elderly downplay in the hopes of going home.[/quote] yeah, 100% that describes my dad! That's why I'm so concerned... the fact that he called my brother to take him to Urgent Care is a big deal, and I"m sure right now he'd want to be home in hid bed, not entering the ER for possible surgery. )-: But I wish he had gone to the ER at 2 PM not now at 7 PM.[/quote] It wouldn't have gone any quicker in the ER, OP. If he goes into the ER with his imaging results and a recommendation for surgery, he's going to be prioritized. Waiting to be triaged in the ER then waiting one's turn for scans, X rays or ultrasounds can take 6 hours or more. I hope your father does well! Please update when you can. [/quote]
