When is a flair so bad, that you should go to the hospital?

Hi there, I'm a 25F from Canada. I woke up at 4am this morning, and started vomiting and having diarrhea. I was about to leave the washroom at just about 11am.

My stomach is killing me. It's not the worst pain I've had for a flare up (I was diagnosed less than a year ago due to a horrific flare up).

Im taking Tylenol, I took my mezevant, and anti nausea medications. I am also shipping water. I'm laying in bed with a heat pad.

I'm concerned because there was blood and mucus near the end of my bathroom stay. It's 2:00pm right now, and I'm still in pain. It worsens when I move.

Should I wait a bit longer to see if the pain goes away as I relax?

Living in Canada means that if I go to the hospital, in going to be waiting for the next two days in emergency, just to get fluids, anti nausea, and pain relief.

Last time I went they ran out of beds, so my partner and I had to sleep in the hallway.

Is there another thing I should try? Should I call a clinic or ambulance? I was in 9/10 pain this morning, right now I'm 7/10.
