Guest guest Posted January 17, 2002 Report Share Posted January 17, 2002 Carloline, I still truly believe there is good people left in this world - I am happy you got some help! There is no need for anyone to be in pain. Take Good Care Sheri OT: So happy I could cry!!! Thank you all for all of your love and prayers!!! I have been so sick for 14 months, and without insurance since Dec 1, 2001. I have been diligently trying to find insurance but everything takes 2 years, 1 year, 6 months, or I am over income, or have to pay $400.00 a month for just my coverage (family is another $350.00 a month) with safety net while on unemployement. With a $900.00 house payment, $500.00 a month in prescriptions, and other basic expenses, I just can't do it. Yesterday, I was in so much pain, I couldn't move. I was in tears, pain increased my adrenaline and crashed my blood sugar all day, but I ended so sick to my stomach from pain, I didn't want to eat. I was a mess. Still am sort of, only less pain today. I called my Rheumy, expained the money / insurance problem and the pain to the receptionist, Dove. A few minutes after I hung up the phone, Dove called back. She, my doctor, and Mina, my doctors nurse, had a discussion with each other. They got very upset about the situation, and thought it was wrong for anyone to have allowed this to happen to someone like me. " What is she supposed to do???? Sell her house in the dead of winter, and live in a tent so she can have medicine???!!!!!!!!!??? " Aparently, my rheumy was very upset about the issue. Dove said " Doctor wants you to keep your appointment on the 28th. He will be treating you at no charge. " (I almost burst into tears! ... but I waited till I hung up) NOW...I told you he was a good doctor, didn't I? " Thanks again to all of you who kept me in your prayers. I am so grateful!!!
