Because books.
I really don't understand how certain ER staff can just disregard written orders from a doctor with privileges at that hospital. Makes no sense. Fingers crossed the migraine doc can do something for you.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
What Amy said.
I don't get it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Migraine doctor called the head of the ER and got permission for one proper dose. It's not enough to get me through a whole week, normally--we'll see when I hit the wall.
Anyway, I'm back in the waiting room of the ER. Apparently I lost my bed because I left. Uh, you discharged me? Yes, I did leave before signing docs, etc, but leaving was pretty definitely not my idea, and since the ER refused to call my doc, I had to find someone who would.
I don't know why it's my job to tell them that making these plans IS NOT MY JOB. I do not know medicine, and I do not know hospital bureaucracy. I have instructions from two specialists that just happen to work. Apart from invasive surgery that even that doc doesn't say is shown to help headaches NO ONE HAS ANY BETTER IDEAS.
This kind of emotional ping pong is not my idea of a good time. If I had a drug problem it would be cheaper and less stressful to find a dealer, for Christ's sake. I have a headache problem, hence all the people with medical training.
So, let's see how this goes, whenever it goes. I was afraid for a little that I couldn't travel for the wedding.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
NOT APPROPRIATE TO TREAT YOU?!?!?!?! Fucking fuck, that is outrageous and wrong.
Does H lend itself to that more?
I can think of H. G. Wells and H. Beam Piper off the top of my head, so, maybe, yeah.

Oh, btw, I got a job. It's part-time and the pay is low, but it'll mean more income in 2013 than I had in 2012, so that's good. And a flexible and irregular schedule, which for some reason pleases me.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
