This afternoon I got a call from my doc's office about medicare telling them I needed an annual checkup. I proceeded to lose my shit on the poor woman. I have to go to the doc 2x a year for med refills and if I'm ill - which is seldom. Now, my Doc is cool. He refused to give the vaxx and he also refused to take it which lost him his hospital privileges.
Medicare acts like they're doing us a favor. BULLSHIT We paid taxes all our lives for this. They are not entitlements and I will not kiss bureaucratic ass.
Seems like BIG Pharma is acting like Big Brother. They get the medical establishment to lower numbers on what is considered acceptable for BP, cholesterol, etc.
Tomorrow, I am contacting my Congress critters and asking them to look into the gov't getting involved in my health. You all are likely mostly young and not facing this yet. Believe me, time flies and you'll be in my position in a flash. You might want to consider contacting your critters so that you don't have to deal with this in the future.
Sounds like you suffer from cluster migraines. I did too for years. $30 for one pill to stop/improve the headache. It was so painful and disrupted my life to such a degree that I considered opting out, but was afraid of ticking off the One who gave me life. Suddenly just stopped. Haven’t had one in almost thirty years now
That's what the docs think too. The nickname is "suicide headaches" because the pain is so incredible. I have a pain scale that I equate to an earthquake intensity scale. Post surgical pain is a 5. Bladder spasms which doctors say are like late stage labor ,I give an 8.5. The headaches are a 10.
I was finally able to understand why some with bad pain do opt out. My husband and children but especially God kept me from that move. So happy you found relief.
