Ridiculous medical care..

Blame your capitalist president. I bet the docs are in it for the cash and it seems that your situation is more costly than profit.

Again, its not costing me jack. Most doctors are in it for the money however, my chiropractor broke that chain and has proven that he's more interested in helping me get back on my feet. First time I came in there wasn't even an indication of him getting paid and the first thing he did was have me x-ray'd for a simple look of my back and he treated me. He's also given me a pep talk when thats not even his job. At times I forget he's a doctor.

I remember when I was under intensive care that the nurses chatted with me during the night. (I was the only conscious patient in the entire room)

[Alyx Vance]

Intensive care for what?

[Albahaca]

Fell off a bull and separated my skull ~2cm from the first disk on the spine, causing an inflamation on my neck nerves leaving my left arm irresponsive and my entire body feelless (I could still move it). I'm fine now but with a little tick on my neck.

You seem very accident prone.

[Albahaca]

2 accidents per year. I hope this year will be better.

[Alyx Vance]

Good luck with that.

IIRC, my fractures were because:
1 - Right arm: Goalie in soccer.
2 - Left arm: goalie in soccer
3 - Left arm: slipped on a halfeaten apple
4 - Left arm: separating dogs
5 - Right arm: Attempting hockey
6 - Left arm: Goalie in soccer.

Geez, you need to drink your milk.

I've broken my toe by bashing it into some drywall, messed up a joint or two, messed up my back severely. I don't know what all I've done. Healthcare here is a bitch so going to the hospital isn't worth the struggle.

I'm not sure how costly the MRI is in the US. All I know is that I pay $550 ARS (Roughly $55USD at legal rate) monthly for my insurance and I don't lay a cent in the hospital.



HOLY stuff
