good luck man

i am listening to some marillion for you

fyi to anyone who is planning on a career in nursing or doctoring this is easily the worst thing to say to someone who doesn't even know what kind of disease they have or any sense of a timeline, jesus christ.

You should have asked for her number.

I have a massive phobia of needles and I was passing out when I had glandular fever not so long ago and this Chinese nurse who *PRETENDED* not to understand my "stop *sob* please stop" etc stabbed me 4 or 5 times before I came up with the idea of saying "I'm going to be sick" which she understood perfectly, then she fucked off.

Moral of the story: Take a gun to hospital. Then they won't screw you around.

Edit: I would've blown her fucking head off without remorse. If someone who is supposed to be helping you shows pleasure in the fact you're squirming around completely helpless and at their mercy they deserve payback.

Good luck man.

this is stupid. first, i don't get why it matters this nurse is chinese unless she was using the language barrier to pretend not to understand you for kicks or something, and in which case what were you doing in a chinese speaking hospital? also i think nurses are probably told to just give sissies the injection they need because it's better that you are scared for a minute rather than let an illness get worse or continue.

maybe she had to poke the needle in 5 times cos you wouldn't hold still? i don't think she was all stab happy

i guess i just don't buy that this nurse was being malevolent, because i have had lots of people tell me tall tales about evil hospital staff which turned out to be a lot of crap or the people who told me are crazy in the first place. plus the whole GUNS joke bit makes you sound silly and unreasonable.

Huh, I thought I posted in here already.

I really hope you don't have cancer steel! You are easily GW's most recognizable member - even with name changes your posting style is really easy to pick up on. I'd imagine you'd pretty much leave GW if you found out you had cancer? There are a lot more important things to see and experience in this world than GW.

Just... don't die... ok? Promise?

Don't be a troll 

hm - i guess i was kind of trolling! i didn't mean to sound like MAN I HATE YOU if that's how it looks, i just thought what you said about the nurse stuff was pretty stupid, but i guess it's pointless to pick a fight about it so okay.

I know we've had our disagreements man, but seriously, I hope everything turns out ok. You'll get through this ok, I mean, you're Steel right? You never backed down from anything else ^_^. Seriously though, I really hope you get some good news on Monday.

so basically no matter what happens we're pretty much going to get that nurse fired because apparently it's intensely against protocol not only for a nurse to try and break the news that it's cancer, but to do it in the emergency room and with nothing but a CAT scan. been getting a lot of advice that it's probably mold or something, so let's hope for that.

still worried but nothing I can do about it! all my friends fucked off this weekend (they had big plans) so I've been just sitting here watching...American Dad...

It's Monday already, what time do the results come back?

Where do you live?

hey wait!  she made a pretty crass mistake but she didn't really tell you that you had cancer and the SPEND ALL THE TIME YOU HAVE LEFT was probably said with good intentions.  i don't think it's fair to try to get her fired over it.  that's someone's LIVELIHOOD man.

except it's against every professional code of ethics, mostly because of shit like this. apparently there's no real way to tell what it is by a CAT scan alone (if there was, a biopsy would be completely unnecessary) and she has no right to give that kind of information out anyways, so yeah fuck her you don't get to tell me I'm going to die when you have no idea!

I basically told my mom's doctor friend who works at the hospital and she went berserk because that's apparently so against regulations that hospitals get sued over it all the time.

i'm just saying she didn't even say that in so many words and you're a vindictive faggot if you're seriously going to try to get her fired just because she SLIPPED UP and you want to fuck her over for it.  i don't really see how you can talk about ethics and then at the same time actively pursue trying to fuck someone over because WELL SHE SAID SOMETHING THAT COULD BE CONSTRUED AS TELLING ME I HAVE CANCER.  it's not a good thing to do and you can't just selectively apply ideas of right and wrong because you don't like the person!  it would be one thing if she was just going to get disciplined but the punishment doesnt fit the crime at all and the only reason she'd be fired is because like you said the hospital just doesn't want to get sued!  if you discount the legal ramifications then saying something like that, WHILE PRETTY BAD, isn't "fuck you you're fired" bad.

heh... that'll teach you to say something you shouldn't have.... hope ya dont have any dependents or bills you need to pay...

CONSTRUED AS TELLING ME.

dude she SAID I HAVE CANCER. she said "I'm afraid this does looks like cancer" and there was no follow up with COULD BE ANYTHING THOUGH and then told me I was going to die very soon. this isn't selective telling or whatever, fuck her. you don't tell someone it looks like they have cancer when you don't know how is this an ethical grey area???

the point of this is so she doesn't fucking do it to anyone else! first off it's incredibly just...gross, I guess, to tell someone they have cancer in a public emergency room (my mom fell over and was sobbing and this was all in the emergency room, not in a doctor's confidence), and then when you don't actually know and you're not a doctor, basically fuck you get a new job.

fuck her dependents and bills, this is my life she's talking about. a nurse has no right to tell me a diagnosis that she doesn't know about. the reason this is MAY instead of DO have cancer is because of an oncologist who said it could be any number of things and the biopsy would reveal more. the nurse told me I had cancer and was probably going to die. I have no problem getting her fired.
