I hate not having health insurance.
« on: May 07, 2008, 11:40:54 PM »
For the 2nd time in 4 months I find myself pretty much bedridden. I start to feel achy- like I worked out too hard, but I didn't work out- and then incredibly weak. Fever sets in, hangs around 102 for 12-16 hours, then goes away. Modest digestion problems follow, but no puking. I'd really like to know what this is, but I don't get health insurance for another 2 months. The dreams are the worst part- Complete repitive, just the same thing over and over, obsessively. I don't want to sleep, but I'm so tired.

Ughghghghhg. Hook me up with meds, Pharmacy.

If I didn't have health insurance, I'd owe UMHS around 140k right now. It's a weird system you Americans have going. I take it there aren't any free clinics nearby?

This is better than the time I BUSTED my head open and had to stuff it with gauze because I was min. wage at the time.

Didn't you get health insurance with your new job?  Or are you still in the 3 month probationary period?

2 months huh? you should be able to make it.

My non-insured ass has been very lucky. I have not had to see a doctor for about 3 years now. Last time I went my philosphy was that it is better to pay now than to wait for it to get worse and pay more later.

2 more months :( I actually feel much better today. I had a 102 fever when I went to bed, I'm feverpfree now. Still feel kind of weak, so I'm calling in.
