UCLA Manometry Achalsia Nightmare

[Guest guest]

On Monday the ucla G.I team set up a manometry test for Thursday they were going

to admit me because my weight had plumted and I lacked energy but my vitals were

okay just very low potassium. On Tuesday I fainted and my mom rushed me to the

Ucla E.R.

Once there I got an I.V and in walks this general pediatric doctor who said if

we do not agree to go to eating disorder treatment I will not be admitted. It

shocked me and my mom and we wanted to speak to the g.I doctors we spoke to on

Monday. Last time I we took there advice to go to eating disorder treatment here

at ucla I was down there for a week and lost about 8 pounds also fainted on the

tile and got bruised they couldn't figure out why I was vomiting they tried

breathing techniques with me everything and they even stuck tubes down my nose

both of which I regurgitated and then started vomiting blood after anyways they

eventually sent me to g.I team for t.p.n and p.I.cc line and they thought I had

hernia. But now knowing what achalsia feel that these are all my symptoms even

the back pain and chest pain (funny cause when we mentioned back pain or chest

pain last time they said it was heart burn or the back pain was from laying in a

hospital bed all day) they never looked for achalasia.

So once that first lady doctor stomped off in walked g.I and said I would be

admitted to the hospital just fine and won't let physce come see me at all til

after my manometry if needed. It was like night and day to what the other lady

said. They even said I could keep my appointment for the manometry on Thursday

they would just have to take me like across the street by ambulance in secret

tunnels lol

So yesterday I ate and was reswallowing my vomit cause I hate spitting it out

but it eventually did come out but prior to two doctors came in who were g.I

doctors and just popped in and were like physce team could teach me breathing

techinques and then just walked away and left me there. I was so insulted is

this all they think about me. =( I wish I could do breathing and it would go

away =(

This leads to Thursday the day of the test at 9. But of course no one called

dispatch or even bothered to call anybody so now it got postponed til 4. And I'm

npo and throwing up bile and bubbles and I just want some water but have to wait

and my stomach hurts like crazy =( than child protective services calledcause

they got word I was admitted to hospital malnourished and said why didn't we

take the recomendation for eating disorder treatment my mom was all that's what

physce recomended and not g.is not to mention I only saw physce for like five

seconds and to get the g.I recomendations for this test and go through the

insurance and all that took forever. Cps they were very scary and threatning cps

and it hurts me so much cause my mom is my hero and warrior she is an amazing

mom and they threatened to intervene it was terrible. its weird cause I had a

barrium swallow test and threw up almost all the barium back on myself and the

little that did stay in wouldn't move they actually sent me back upstairs to a

hospital bed to wait 2 hours til it finally moved and I remember pooping it like

2days later yet they said that the test showed nothing so now I wonder what the

manometry could show because this whole physcosymptomatic name they gave me or

eating disorder name is getting very old. =(
