I had a similer experience at the Emergency room.
I had surgery on my fallopian tubes in hopes I would
get pregnant. I am over 2 months late for my period
and have been having pain. I called my family doc and
she informed me that It would be best to go to emergency
because an eptopic pregnancy (or fallopian tube pregnancy)
may not show up on a home pregnancy test. So the
pain wasn't subsiding so at 10pm my husband took me
in. The doctors in emerg were not helpful, The First
doctor listened immpatiently as I described the pain
and My history (she didn't seem to care) and
preformed a PAP. And a 2nd doctor come into my
room to give me the results of the tests and he
said "well you can't be in that much pain you fell
asleep"!! can you imagine, a Doctor talking like
that to his patients. I went home in pain with no
meds. I haven't had pain like that since that day,
but I can feel burning and I still havent started
my period yet! I have been waiting since June 28
for an appointment with my OBGYN and they can;t
even give me an estimate to when I will see him.
I wish you pain free

I was in the emergency room last night at a totally different hospital
thinking I would be treated differently. Not a chance! The pain had
become so severe in the last few days that it even has been painful to
even walk.
