screwed

There was something wrong... with how I was treated at Medical City...

I don't know, it is just bugging me... The second time I went there, I was given a bed, mainly because when I walked in the emergency room, I was with a 39.5 celsius temperature... and a resident doctor attended to me, ordered a cbc and xray... and again, she didn't find any focus... this despite there were things that are not normal in my cbc reading... like my Hemoglobin being low... well, she noticed that but so are other things, which I observed was the basis of the first doctor to say that I have a bacterial infection and thus prescibed me antibiotics: Unasyn... but I still get the fever, everyday, which I actually goes down after I take medication... Alaxan FR...

Now this Doctor taking her residency that attended to me, ignored the other blood component and was just focusing on my anemia... which can easily be explained as me working at night... she wanted to admit me, I declined, she let me go with just a prescription for paracetamol... just paracetamol... I don't know why as when I checked the CBC result, comparing it with the previous CBC, and it pretty much yielded same result... so I don't understand why no antibiotics... she also advised me to see an Infectious Desease Specialist, which I later found out meant an HIV specialist... she assumed I am HIV positive... which she passed on the next doctors the following week when I was back with a 39.5 temperature again...

I agreed to be admitted this time... and while I was waiting for a room at the emergency room, blood was drawn out of me for CBC, and blood culture, also x-ray... and urinalisys... was charged for it... but my HMO took care of it...

The thing was, I think because of that doctor taking her residency assuming I was HIV + and passing the information to the other doctor's, like Dr. Ditangco and the attending physician... which jeopardized my HMO coverage... and when I asked about the results of the test--CBC, blood culture, urinalisys... and even my xray, my attending physcian said she didn't work it up becuase I am suspected as HIV+...

I think that was the part I got screwed... they ignored all the test...

Well, it's one thing that I maybe HIV+... but it is also another thing having fever everyday... yes, it could be assumed the reason I am sick is because my immune system is down...
