Forcibly Discharged from ER: Has Anyone Experienced This?

I went the er yesterday after passing out, they refused to do any kind of blood tests, refused to treat me and told me nothing was wrong with me and forcibly discharged me after I told them what was wrong and what I needed. I’m still in shock. Still can barely function, going to see a dr today for blood testing and hopefully a change in meds. Has anyone ever had this happen? Have you ever had a dr not believe you about Addison’s disease and refuse to treat you?

It's happened to me on multiple occasions, in two instances I was left out in a hallway without treatment. One time a doctor would only say "I'm not giving you morphine" when I never asked for it!

Yes many doctors don't understand AI and think we are just Drug seeking. I went to the ER in a Crisis and the doctor told me that ER where for sick people and I needed to not come again unless I was Really in a emergency.

I’m going back to that er today to file a complaint and I’m also going to file a grievance with the hospital board/ceo. I’m absolutely livid. I’m still in terrible condition and they could have literally killed me. No one listens it makes my fear of medical gas lighting so much worse, it makes me afraid to get help when I’m going into crisis I’m so scared I’m going to die because of medical neglect
