You know what the best part of not having insurance is? Trying to decide if something is nothing and will go away on its own, or if its a warning sign of something really bad...

'Cause if I go to the doctor and its nothing than I'm going to have any financial plans set back for MONTHS. But if its something, than its good that it was caught, but of course I'll be so far in debt again the only way out would be bancruptcy. Again. Which thanks to the caring gov't that lets me make these kinds of health decisions, will be EVEN HARDER TO GET. Got to protect those credit card companies ya know...

Its probably nothing. I just really hate not having any decent options...

Edit: Whatever it was it went away. Hopefully just some weird physical twinge from forgetting to take my metformin 2 days in a row...

I had AHCCS when I was only working 2 days a week. But since I now have FOUR shifts a week I make too much to qualify anymore. I may be able to get a discount plan, not a real health plan, just a discount...

And the sign up for insurance at work is July...

Its nice still making well below poverty level wages, yet being too well off to qualify for assistance...
