[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, thanks for your advice! OP here with an update. I basically did all that you said. Grabbed the keys and said we're going to the ER. Mom flipped out and said "no I'm better urgent care is fine." We went straight there. She whined about the wait. She got mad because they scheduled her to see a female nurse practitioner and she complained until they said she could see a (male) doctor. I walked away at that point. Doctor said it was just allergies and to take Zyrtec; i can only assume that she verbally beat on him or played him until he acquiesced to more because he also gave her a letter for the airline stating that she can't fly for 5 days (she was to leave 18 hrs after the urgent care visit) which doesn't make any sense to me, but I have zero medical training.

So that backfired on me in a huge way but I'm glad we lived this thing out so I don't repeat my mistakes in the future.

Doctor apparently said to eat light foods and liquids so when DH returns tonight we are ordering pizza, which she is really greedy about but refuses to order for herself because the neighbors will know she is eating pizza (?!). It will be too bad that she can't have any but DH "really needs a hearty meal", or so she always tells me; for once I will listen![/quote]

OMG, this has totally happened to me. Im literally laughing out loud right now, but I feel bad for you. My mom also does this shit. Usually she develops a kidney stone or something the day before she is supposed to leave and has to go to the hospital and then can't leave for an extra week. It sucks. I'm going with a personality disorder too. [/quote]
