Sept. 9, 2001 I went to the emergency room with sever stomach pains. I was told I had IBs, given some pain meds and sent home. September 10, I returned to the E.R. And was sent home again with no answers. September 11, 2001 After witnessing the most horrific event in my lifetime I was taken to the E.R. by a friend to be accused of looking for pain meds. I flipped out and they had to get a new doctor. Finally I was diagnosed with c-diff. A simple check to find out i had been on antibiotic a week prior may have helped. needless to say by this point the infection was so bad I was admitted for 5 days. Now I am stuck with a $5000 hospital bill for something that could have been treated outpatient with antibiotics. I am trying to fix my credit but am having a hard time paying for their mistakes. Should I fight it or should I just make payment arrangements?
