I asked the Nurse THREE times I need to get tested for E-COLI, basically the ONLY reason I went in. She assured me all THREE times she will request for it to be done. The urinalysis came back. Guess what. She didn’t send in the request for the E-COLI test. Instead she requested BV and regular urine culture, which I did not ask for nor need or want. But no, I’m being charged for that shit.
I kept asking the front desk, they keep telling me the results are back and that it’s negative. I keep telling them that the E-COLI was NOT in the lab results. They keep telling me it is. Then they asked the Nurse today. SHe said it’s in the urine culture- WHICH IT IS NOT. Fcuking A.
I have to go back and do the urinalysis AGAIN. TF.
It pisses me off. If I have an infection, it needs to be found right away.

Don’t pay
Yet another shining example of American medicine. Typical American medicine assholery that is. I hope you get what you need next time.
Here is another one: So a friend of mine had to have an emergency appendectomy. Only afterwards did she learn that insurance companies, including hers, would no longer be accepting billing from that particular facility/group whatever it was. This forced her into bankruptcy. I hope she doesn’t have to look for another job anytime soon as this bankruptcy will be seen by any potential employer that cares to take a look. Small comfort that it is: The facility/group whatever went bankrupt too.
