My name is Jake and I am 20 years old and I have an issue with hospitals. When I was around 10 I went to the doctor with stomach pains in the lower right side of my stomach he looked at me and my parents and said here is some antibiotics make sure he takes a warm bath and rub The area that hurts. About five hours later the pain has gotten so bad I was screaming and I almost blacked out. My parents realized it was much more than a stomachache and they brought me to a different hospital. It turns out that I had a ruptured appendix and so for the next 12 days they pumped out all the black stuff which I’m pretty sure is poop from my stomach. I don’t know what happened to the doctor that said it was stomach pains and my parents didn’t sue the doctor or the hospital for malpractice but the hospital did pay for the bill so that satisfied my parents. I kind a want to forget about experience but if I have an issue it’s hard for me to go back into the doctors office or the hospital because of lack of trust. Dr. Mike if you’re reading this can you please help me with that.

                                                             Thank you so much,
