No need to wait: You need medical attention and that will suffice to go to the hospital. It is that admission will be granted only if needed and you will be kept only a limited amount of time in the hospital, the follow up plan as outpatient will be critical and will need to be coordinated eventually under your doc and include 1 or 2 specialists.
