    Your post doesn't make sense. Can you calmly explain what you mean. Because I don't see any HIPPA violation from what you are stating. I would like you to explain in plain english and not text speak. We don't deal in text speak here just english in its proper version.

    I really don't understand your question. Let me see if I can recap.

    You were in the ER and so was your EX. You asked the nurse not to tell the EX about your surgery.

    Is this correct?
