honestly I find that hard to believe. the police are required to assess the situation, NOT take the word from anyone who happens to call in. If that was the case I could find any motherfucker and make up a story they called me and have the cops raid their home. That is still an infringement on your rights. Any cop should go through psych classes where they are told the warning signs of someone who is attempting suicide and those merely screaming for attention.
what should have happened is the officer taking the call ask some very key questions, from that they would have determined if there was any concern. Normally they stay away from domestic shit like that, and do not have a right to restrain you on the word of someone who is not your legal guardian. Which I am sure she doesn't have power of attorney over you. Only those with power of attorney can do something like that and even then it's difficult without a doctors assessment.
strangely that no one asked you if you had any allergies or reaction to certain medication. If not - you can now sue the hospital for injecting you with drugs that they didn't' know would harm you or not.
so outside of that, I would say you should win this hands down, since it sounds completely stupid for cops and hospital staff to go beyond their authority in what you say happened.
