Bextra, did it send me to the hospital?

I'm 32 yrs. old in Sept of this year I had surgery and was put on Bextra for cramps that I had after. I was given Bextra with an order of 20mg 2 X a day for cramps(pain). After taking it only 3 X I was rushed to the hospital by ambulance because I could hardly breath my heart was beating out of my chest and my blood pressure was really high. On the way to the hosp. they ran and IV, put me on Oxygen, and gave me a NITO pill. I took about 3 of those all together between the Ambulance and ER before my blood pressure came down. The whole time all this was going on I was telling them I felt like it was the pain medicine. The ER never even consider it instead they took info on a decongestion that I have been taking for years and took my allergist name. They never even called my OB doctor who did the surgery just 2 days before. I was in the hosp. for the weekend and released with nothing wrong according to them. No I have high blood pressure that I haven't had in over 2 yrs after I lost 60lbs. I can't afford to go to the doctor because I have surgery bills and now hospital bills. How and what do I do to find out that Bextra was the problem.
