I would be so upset also.  I would contact a lawyer and see what they can tell you.  It is SO wrong for someone to be so selfish and worried about themselves.  There is no two ways about it.  You needed help and it was his responsibility to call an ambulance when you asked for it.  It could have been a life threatening situation.  Don't let it fall by the way side.  Don't wait too long.  Good luck and let us know what you decide to do.  We are behind you!!

yeah ur right at the end of the day if someone says i need an ambulance they should be belived if u ring 911 they have to assit you it wasent like i only had a little niggle i was in disstress he was only bothered about his liceance you wouldent do it to a dog what he done why i asked the forum is because woman who had simalar pain would know what the pain and distress was like and i dont want money its the princable that people should be humane and ring for help if a person needs it thanks for the feed back

it is the law that no matter where you at and you ask someone to call 911 they have to especially if it is at a place of business. you can take that man to court and sue him put him out of his job shut his place down and live off on all of his money. if you are scarred to go to court about it b/c you have never been in court i would get over it. he didn't care about you all he cared about was his self so you should do the same you shouldn't care what happens to him when you take him to court you should only care about your self. and who cares if it happened at a bar. they wont look at you wrong for that a lot of people go to the bar and have a drink or 2 or even 3. but if i was you i wouldn't wait too long to take him to court b/c they can use that against you. plus i wouldn't want to pay for those bills when they come in so sue him and make him pay for it.

well  if you think about it  when you went in the pub did u tell the ower that you did not feel well or did you ask for a drink an was he to asume that you was sick or had to much to drink  . dont forget you were in a bar an thas maybe the reason he put you out  not to be mean   so  think of it in to ways ok so dont get upset or stress out  if you didnt no you were sick how could they .so there i hope that  help
