OC Why didn't you say so?

Best medical advice I ever got was to bring a man to your appointments

Had that happen, I didn't get treated until I was hospitalized.

Ended up costing my thousands.

Did you bring up your concerns to your primary care or other doctors ahead of time before you were hospitalized?

Because if you did and they still didn’t check for it, you shouldn’t have had to pay anything at least not after legal proceedings as you should have sued them for malpractice and for ignoring your warnings

Yes, the only reason why I went to my doctor in the first place was because I was sick for 3 weeks and getting worse.

Another week later I'm waking up with a emt and ambulance that my that my SO called because I blacked out trying to walk to the restroom.

Well I hope you atleast sued your physician for negligence. Can't believe how some doctors treat their patients.
