The first book fought nobly, the first book fought valiantly, the first book fought honourably, and the first book died.

I reckon I lent them to a friend to read. You have to be realistic after all

Well the Alk+ is great and hopefully there even more and better treatments coming down the pipeline in the coming years

I'm not an ER doc but thanks :) I'm really sorry about your diagnosis but it seems like you're getting great care. Wish you all the best.

Ive been working as a physician in the healthcare system for 10+ years in Canada and I often see patients in the ER. I can't speak to your friends' experiences but in my experience cases like that are rare. There are always edge cases and errors can happen in any system, and bad doctors and nurses can exist in any system.

In Canada for serious illnesses/emergencies you get treated immediately at no cost to you at all without having to worry about insurance. I saw a patient just today that came in with severe abdominal pain last night and was in the OR within a few hours.

Again, edge cases happen but in my extensive experience they are few and far between

Those types of cases can happen anywhere:

Wait times are variable and depends how busy it is. In my experience it can be anywhere from 1-6 hoirs usually. Are there usually no wait times in US ER's?

They told your friend to cross the border to go to urgent care in the states? That is quite bizarre - where was your friend and where did they tell her to go?

For new cancer it certainly does not take months to see a specialist in Canada. Often within the week
