Because my day sucked and I'm pissed and I figured other people might need to get things off their chest as well.

No? I haven't posted one of these in weeks. And today particularly sucked thanks to a really sucky doctor.

In spite of my doctor insisting that she could operate at an in-network hospital, and despite the fact that the appointment last week was completely useless and we could have figured this out two months ago and actually pushing the surgery back two months already, today I found out she actually can't operate in any of the hospitals my insurance will cover.

So this means that I have to find a new doctor and start all over again. And I wasted 50 bucks plus whatever I spent on the blood tests that are now useless. And who knows when the surgery will be.

I honestly broke down sobbing today. I'm just so tired of waiting and dealing with pain. I'm so very frustrated.

Ugh, I'm so sorry about that. I kind of know how you feel, I'm going through something a bit similar looking for help for my medical issues too. I really really hope that things work out for you soon and your next doctor will treat you much better *hugs*

Will they really not let you carry blood tests results to the next doctor?

Our system is so broken and I'm sorry you're going through this. :( *hugs if wanted*

I'm sorry to hear that. Can you bring the results of the blood tests with you to the new doctor? Especially if you paid for them they should really be yours and your doctor should hand them over to you if she hasn't already. Or were they bloodtests to check if the surgery could be performed safely? (My father takes an anticoagulant; he had a surgery last year and it took a week of bloodtests to see if the anticoagulant had left his system until he could actually have the surgery.)

Ugh, that's awful.

I can't believe that, all of these years after so-called reform, people still have to deal with this sort of bullshit. There should have been something in the ACA to do away with this in-network/out-of-network nonsense, seeing as it so often renders insurance useless.

I'm sorry. :-/ I hope things get sorted out for you soon.

Fuck daylight savings

It is too fucking dark in the morning and it is light out until 8pm. DO NOT WANT!!!!

Agreed.

(Anonymous) 2016-03-22 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
I'm just the opposite. Fuck standard time, man, I do not want it getting dark at 5pm, that's ridiculous.

This may be why we can never abolish it altogether.

I love daylight savings and hate when it gets dark at like 5:00. I spent a summer break in Fairbanks once and loved that there was daylight for like 20 hours a day (I would definitely hate to be there in the winter when the opposite happens though).

Re: Fuck daylight savings

(Anonymous) 2016-03-22 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
I hate daylight savings time so much. I'd rather have sun in the morning because that wakes me up. Plus, every time we spring forward, I have a hard time adjusting to the new time and I'm guaranteed to be grouchy for at least a week.

My alcoholic mom is still making me want to punch things, but now it's because she's reached the apologetic stage and can't walk and I'm afraid she might die soon, even though last week they said she might make it a year even if she keeps drinking.

I'm hoping it's just mild dts and she'll pull through; I skipped class (for the last time; if I have to put her on a toddler leash tomorrow and take her to school I will) and dragged her to the Social Security office today. She panics at paperwork like I do, but she'd insisted she was properly enrolled in Medicare, and since we weren't getting angry billing notices I figured she must've been.

Turns out she was still covered by Cobra, and that ends this month, and she was dropped from Medicare Part B for non-payment back in January. So I renewed all her prescriptions I could, because even if she re-enrolls by the end of the month, her coverage won't start until July. And then, after getting home from the Social Security office and paying some other bills at the treasurer's downtown, in the teetering pile of paper that is her mail, I found a letter from Kaiser.

She can probably extend her Cobra another 18 months, which is more than enough time to get her back on Medicare. Except I'm afraid she might not make it through the night. I should be relieved, but I'm not. I'm terrified. And I still have to go back to school and kiss serious professor ass this week to make up for vanishing most of last week and today. Why do they even have attendance requirements? I pass my exams with flying colors and it's not like I miss class for fun. I'd much rather be taking notes at a boring lecture than lecturing my mom while pouring a bottle down the sink.

Oh, nonny, I'm so, so sorry you are dealing with this. All the internet hugs and positive thoughts for you. You sound like an amazingly strong person to be able to take care of her like this.

As a student with so much going on, can you go to your college's counseling office for help? They should be able to assist you in appeasing your profs or help you navigate the system to your best advantage. Not trying to trivialize what you are struggling with, but you cannot be the first to face major life issues while enrolled in classes. You appear to be shouldering quite a lot and a little help might go a long way in easing your burden.

As a former caretaker of a parent and a ft college student, I feel for you. I'm so sorry that you are having to struggle with this situation.

I basically want to die. I'm not going to kill myself or anything because I have at least a little hope that things will get better eventually but I'm so fucking miserable right now. I just don't know what to do except sit here and cry.

Re: Rant thread

(Anonymous) 2016-03-22 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
Don't sit home along and cry, nonny. It sounds counter-intuitive, but the best thing you could do with yourself is to FORCE yourself to get up and do something productive. Take a shower. Tidy up your room a little. Take a walk around the block. Visit a park. Send a friend an "I'm thinking of you" e-mail. Bake cupcakes. Something that isn't wallowing in misery, because wallowing just makes everything seem far more hopeless than it actually is.
