I am questioning the veracity of your OP.
If you were so sick, what are you doing posting on MR.
If someone was sick, they would, if sensible, either be trying to reach their doc, going to a hospital emergency room, or calling for an ambulance.
If you live in the US, doctors are required by law to have back-up coverage when they are not available for any reason. If not in US, I still find it hard to believe that when a doc is unavailable there is not someone covering on-call. Of course, I could be wrong about that.
I hope that explains my skepticism.
