Best answer:

Answer by sharrona
Just bad enough to want to go and be admitted…

Maybe a referral from the primary care physician, if that is what your insurance may need, or go to an ER room can do it also.

Not good to wait to long the pattern will sit in and something can go wrong. Terribly wrong.

good luck
