Not Coping

[Birdofparadise8]

I'm safe right now @ENKELI 

I'm sorry. 

I am in way too much pain physically to even do anything right now. My stomach has never been this sore. 

I'm going to watch Grey's Anatomy and 911.

Maybe you should call an ambulance or go to a doc @Birdofparadise8

[Birdofparadise8]

I talked to my mum, and we have done a basic assessment based on our medical knowledge. I'm going to wait until 7 or 7:30 to see if it settles down after some prune juice. If not, I'll call the nurse on call. 

I'm not 100% sure if it's gastrointestinal or something else. @ArraDreaming 

I've had some pain relief as well. 

[ENKELI]

@Birdofparadise8 you never need to apologise sweetie. 

I'm praying your pain goes away, do you have a heating pad or pain relief? If it gets too bad make sure you let your uncle or aunt know in case you need to see a doctor. I'm worried about you princess, having pain is the worst when you're alone. No you do not need to say sorry. 💙🫂

[Birdofparadise8]

Okay, thank you @ENKELI 

I have had some pain relief, which has helped a bit. My stomach has been sore all day. 

I won't need to tell them they are too busy. If it gets too bad, I'll call the nurse on call to see if I should go to emergency. 

Have you finished work?

[ArraDreaming]

Nurse on call will tell you to go to emergency no matter what, you could try virtual emergency department

[Birdofparadise8]

Oh, really, okay. @ArraDreaming 

Have you used the virtual emergency before? 

Is it like a phone call or something?

[ArraDreaming]

Amazing wouldn’t use it for a broken arm etc but very handy for not-quite-hospital feel very but still need help asap kind of thing
Called them in the night at 2am once, took 10 mins to wait, were thorough asked all the right questions and got a prescription and advice…
All for the time it would have taken not even for us to get near our local hospital let alone wait for 6+ hours…..
So yeah! Free, it’s like FaceTime kinda deal. Again wouldn’t go if you were like needing obviously treatment like a broken bone but for pain and that it’s like Nurse on Call but far better.
Nurse on call must have a box ticking thing to follow because they have even told us at times to go to emergency for things we don’t need to go to emergency for…. Up to you but just be mindful NOC might freak you and suggest you get to hospital when you can do virtual ED and get a thorough treatment from an ED clinician at home

[Birdofparadise8]

Okay, I am just looking at it now. @ArraDreaming 

My stomach is still sore. I just don't want it to be just something with my bowels and waste there time. 

[ArraDreaming]

Yeah I’m no doctor but I would say it’s a very good and maybe under used service… has been very helpful for us, a couple of times actually @Birdofparadise8
