Few days back, I fell badly on ground backwards. My head, neck, backbone and feet hit the ground like hell. I don't remember what was happening around. What I remember was my terrible screams, my friends' crying, their dragging me to the door, the chilling wind, shivering and then all blackout. Then someone called my name at least ten times, shuddered me at least 20 times and threw a sharp light into my eyes with "Hey! you are in paramedics' safe hands. See in the middle of my both eyes". They were doing something with me which I don't remember now but they didn't let me sleep. I think they were trying to fix me on a board. Then I was taken to the hospital where I had to spent a night. I went through different tests, Cat scan and X rays.
I felt one thing badly. They only wanted me to remain in consciousness to answer the one most imortant question; "Are you pregnant"? They asked this question to my friends many times "Is she pregnant"? "Is there any chance that she could be pregnant"? They did not trust their answer which was negative. So they used to shudder me through the places I was badly hit and ask the same question time and again. Many times, I felt that they were more interested in my pregnancy than treating my bad injuries. "Are you not pregnant"? O man what's the big deal. I am sure there would be many ladies who die without making any kid......but why are they asking this question? At some point, I thought I might be pregnant and I might forget about it. But how is it possble? nahi nahi.....I dont drink. I dont take any other intoxication. Then how could I do such a big thing in unconsciousness? They didn't believe my friends' and my words. They woke me up the 30th time and forced me to sign a form declaring that I wasn't pregnant. Gosh!!
P.S. Living in US, everyone would doubt your virginity after seeing your age. :|
:) Insha'Allah you are ok sis... I dont think they were doing it to make a point.. they are doing it because there are certain tests you wouldnt be able to have if you were pregnant and the pregnancy could have been the cause of your fall. They need to know if there is something they should be looking for. I dont think they saw your age and though 'well she's old so she must be' ;) But I agree that they went a little overboard if they did it as many times as you say. Did they find out what caused the fall??
ReplyDeleteOh but what happened, are you doing fine now? how's life in amreeka going?
ReplyDeleteWell coz blacking out in pregnancy is not so uncommon due to stress and getting fatigued and if you are pregnant then such a blow can really harm your baby too and then as ammena stated above ^ .. sometimes. I'm sure they just wanted to make sure that you are not and you cant sue them later on ;)
First of all I am single...errr.....that cannot be an excuse in America from not being pregnant. Actually I am not at all pregnant.
ReplyDelete'My great fall', as my friends named it, is a very tragic story. I was grabbing something from the upper rack of my closet while standing on my toes on a chair which had wheels. The chair deceived me (it never did in the past :( ) and slipped underneath flatting me on the ground backwards. I landed on the ground hitting my head and backbone with a loud bang. Then I was taken to the hospital, had to go through different tests, X rays and Cat scan. Alhamdulillah every thing is fine, except the severe jerk which my whole body got causing pain from head to toe. That's the whole story. But I severe I wasn't pregnant.
I know they were doing what are supposed to do. But later on, you are left with alot of stuff to laugh upon :D
Anyhow, Thanks Ammena and Asma *hugs*
Okay I know I shouldn't, but I'm laughing like crazy here on the pregnancy thing! on a side note...what the hell happened?? hope you made a full recovery!
