And exactly what it's like in the US! I've lost count of how many times I've been in the ER since being dx'ed. For the first 2.5 years it was several times a month, sometimes several times a week. The Flagstaff hospital was smaller and the ER people knew me, so I usually got in quicker. But at my local hospital here and at JHU I've never been seen in less than 6 hours. Wish I were kidding about that.
