do i go to the ER? when is the best time to go? (aus)
i haven’t been able to walk properly for over a week and keep getting flare ups. it’s very inconsistent, 5hrs ago i was extremely nauseous and light headed with extreme pain in my abdomen, 2hrs ago i was walking normal, 5min ago i was folded over in the office at work because i couldn’t move without pain. it fluctuates A LOT. i spoke to a dr on telehealth who thinks it’s endometriosis, however, since i think the cyst ruptured over a week ago, im worried about infection or other causes. however i worry this isn’t an emergency. though i’m getting really bad flare ups at work that make me want to vomit, give me hot flashes and i feel like im going to pass out. but then they disappear randomly. it’s not long lived enough to feel like an emergency and i worry about clogging up the hospital.
idk what to do because i know im not a priority but im concerned that a GP won’t find out what’s wrong with me before this gets too bad. i thought this would be over by now. it got better for a little, but now its just staying consistently bad to the point where i can’t really do anything.
what would you do? and if you’re not a girl, what would you tell your wife/daughter/mother/female friend to do?
