Tairae- thats a good start.
ED here saved my hubbys life when he had mengitis. We had seen drs every day for a week and alll said he was fine, the day before the dr put him in outpatient iv and just gave him some meds. The morning he couldnt get off the floor, we got an ambulance(not like our 1s just a van to get you to hospital) and the ED shunted him round departments and eventually he got lucky and came acroos a dr who knew what was wrong- the point being- they keep on trying and that saved his life.
Here, they see some pretty bad stuff that could be prevented too. awsome job folks
