Christi,
If you can wait until the morning, call your MD's office. They can
reach him by phone or reach whomever he has on call for him/her.
If you don't feel you can wait, it is better to be safe than sorry, go
on to the ER. Let them know your Dr. sent you before and you are still
having problems.
Feel better. Let us know what you find out.
