Answers:
You can't go by yourself as a minor. A parent or legal guardian has to sign for you. If you present alone, your caretaker will be called. If she doesn't give permission, you don't get treated. If it was a true emergency and you were by yourself, it's a different story--at my hospital, at least, we call the judge to get permission. Your situation doesn't sound like an emergency. Get a family doctor and go to him. Stop using the ER as your personal physician.
