Default ER Room

Spent Sunday afternoon there. Questioned by an RN and then escorted to a room and hooked up to all the bells and whistles. They took blood. (Actually quite a bit) and it was sent for analysis. I laid there for three hours while it was tested. Dr. returned, gave me some advise, changed one of my prescriptions and I was released.
Last time I was in the Villages ER was 9 years ago with about 40 others, most of whom looked like they had bad colds. Didn't know what was wrong with me.
Dr. came in and spent about 30 seconds looking around and then came directly to me, first. Talked a little. He sent me for an X-ray. One lung 100% blocked, the other 80%. Had a staff infection I received from a Dr.'s office in Ocala and spent 15 days in the hospital, 5 of it in IC.
I have absolutely nothing but good words for The Villages ER. Maybe next time it won't be so hot but so far it was VERY good.
