I really wonder sometimes about the medical profession. I am currently sitting in the ER with Lynn. Since he's been working at home, he's had issues with headaches, dizziness, nausea, etc. Someone suggested getting tested for CO. So he had a blood-test about three weeks ago. Doctor's office called yesterday because they had a test result they didn't recognize. Said it showed an elevated CO level and he should call his regular doctor right away.
So he calls today and they tell him he needs to get to the ER immediately. With those levels he's on the verge of a stroke or heart attack.
Really??? After 3 weeks? It is suddenly an emergency?
