If nurses and a Dr shaking and yelling at you to stay with them counts while monitors are alarming, then yeah. And another time too.
@MellyMel22 I didn't know that about you. What happened?

@anythingoes477 The first- lost a baby hitting the steering wheel of my car when I was rear ended by a truck with a trailer attached. Needed dnc and my bp dropped dangerously low in surgery and after- after I was in and out of consciousness but I don’t think it was very long. I just remember them yelling and hearing the machines going off and passing out over and over.

The other time I was sent home with a deadly hospital infection after a c-section and 12 hours later went for emergency care and was told I would’ve been lucky to made it for surgery within hours had I not went there. I was on full bedrest for 1 month. The hospital covered themselves though, but my Dr who was supposed to deliver told me what they gave me- my aunt has been in permanent care almost a year because of the same exact infection they gave her. She’ll never get her life back. I was lucky to get through it and have it caught soon enough- no thanks to them..
@MellyMel22 The world would be a lot worse place without you in it. Glad you got thru those times. And VERY sorry you lost your baby.
