About Me (In My Own Words)
Ran into a big bump in the road today. I have no insurance and they so far seem unwilling to do MRI without pre authorization from an insurance company of some sort. I fall into the I make too much to qualify for assistance but not enough to ever be able to afford independent insurance with the level of specialists I require. This test is also at the heart hospital my primary doctors, rheumatologist and cardiologist would like me to have surgery at....within the next four to six weeks. Now scared that what isn't emergent could turn into emergent or that I will be put off too long to replace valve and damage is done. Irratated with system and politics of the medical world. Shouldn't be penalized medically for not having enough money to afford it. Like who can really this stuff is ridiculously expensive
