2 steps forward, 3 back. I was so excited. So very excited. I really thought I was gonna pay off my car this month. Until $1230 worth of doctor bills came pounding on my door frown That's not even including the bill that has yet to come for the fucking ear specialist.

Hard not to let it get to me. It burns me that I owe them that much money and they didnt even fix me or even diagnose me. I had to go to a fucking specialist which will prolly charge me 10 times the amount the did.

Sigh.

I'll post something happier later.

Dude that's what doctors do:

NextTuesday: Hey what's wrong with me?
Doctor: We must run tests.
NextTueday: How much is that?
Doctor: Well...We'll let the billing guys worry about that since I haven't a clue and never consider those things.
(Break while tests come back)
Doctor: Looks like I can't make an educated guess from the test results.
NextTuesday: Huh?
Doctor: We'll have to send you to someone who I think can help you...a specialist.
NextTuesday: A specialist in what? You don't even know what's wrong...So how do you know it's the right specialist?
Doctor: He can run really special tests and is better at guessing than I am. But I can tell you one thing.
NextTuesday: What?
Doctor: Vannessa's belt buckle can't be disloged. It has a permanent home.
NextTuesday: Oh.

Presented...a summary of every doctor visit. I used to work in hospital administration and it's all a guessing game. The best doctors are really good at it. Hell just watch House because that's all that goes on. Hugs and best of luck while I catch up on a year of being here and there biggrin

When I had Bells Palsy I had a fucking specialist try to charge me $800 to tell me what the last doctor told me. He did not even examine me or anything, he walked in and was like well you have to do this and that. Then he walked out and I was like was that it? So I told the receptionist to give me back my money because that doctor did not do anything. So he came up and gave back the check for $200 and said he was keeping the $200 cash. I told that ugly fucking prick that he did not do a fucking thing, and that the other doctor told me more than he did and I did not have to drive 60 miles to see him. I got my money back. He is still alive.
