My Jacked Up Legs!

 

I recently went through ESOAL (A crazy intense Boot-Camp like program) during ESOAL I had to do a lot of things in mud and grass and water. During one of these events I managed to cut my legs open some how. I didn't realize that my legs were cut. I just thought they were hurting because of the intensity of all the obsticles we were going through. Anyways after ESOAL I started feeling horrible pains in my legs... even to the point where it's been hard to walk. My legs started scabbing up and having pus around the scab. I started using peroxide, neosporin and band-aids to treat the numerous markings on my legs. I tried to see the doctor here when he came to campus, but he was booked so I tried to see him anyways.... I was late. The next day I had an appointment to see the nurse (which was today). I received an email last night that said all appointments were cancelled for today. I thought NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! So I had to see a doctor today... so I realized... wait I never received an insurance card... so I go to my insurance agency. They look up my information. The lady begins making faces like huh? So she begins to tell me... "I can't find any of your information. Did your check clear? Did you have a phone interview"?  I say, "No, I was never contacted." So no insurance information is up to date. I have to go back. They tell me to go see the clinic and they'll reimburse me later. And you can be sure that I make sure they do! :) I get to the clinic... Wait forever... They call my name. I go in, Tell the person before the Doctor comes in what's going on. Ok thanks, So and so will be with you in a minute... 20 minutes later. Hi I'm (Whatever her name was) what's going on? I tell her. Ok I'll be right back... Waiting, waiting.  She pokes my scab with some needle... didn't hurt. Blood comes out. She says, "Oh I was expecting something else." What was she expecting? Anyways... She looks at it some more... "I don't know what you have, but it's infected." She gives me a prescription and tells me how to treat it. I ask her if she can write it down because I would probably forget everything. She leaves, I wait again... wait some more. She comes back gives me the paper, releases me and then I am paying $arm and $leg... actually $135.30, then I have to go get the prescription. Another $17.00 something. Grrr... stinkin insurance. College payment was due today... I forgot. I hope I don't have to pay any interest. Why is the cost of health and college so dang expensive. I need to call my good friend Oprah to help me out. Well friends... I am on my way to recovering. If you remember pray that these legs heal quickly. I have to go back to the doctor on Wednesday to have it checked out again. I can't afford to pay another arm and leg.

Hey Victor... ugh... yeah I hate going to the Doctor.  I don't understand why they are always so expensive!  I remember one time when I was at TM right after I got back from my mission trip to Papua New Guinea our undergrad year... I went to a clinic in Tyler because on my mission trip I had these horrible scabs or fungus from being in the jungle on my toes... it was nasty!! and I had to wait forever too... and the doctor came in for like less than 5 minutes and then left and came back and I had to go get a prescription.  It was crazy!  We will be praying that you heal quickly and that everything works out okay with your insurance and college.

Talk to you later...

Yeah. I hate the medical field. Just last month I got over $4000 in medical bills. That's AFTER insurance had paid out their share... And $1000 in prescriptions alone. So not cool.

Maybe Jeep Swallow isn't the best thing to be walking around in, huh? Lol.

Don't hate that word just hate what we've made it to be. I'll be praying for you. Hey what's your mailing address again. (oh and remember there's a big difference between a Nigga, and a black ignorant person from Nigeria).

Hey hope you are healing up ok. doctors in Texas are horrible. it's because of them i don't ever go to the doctor anymore, although they are not all like the lovelies in Tyler Texas. i was just telling my room mate the other day about how one day i will go back to Texas and get a snow cone and walk around teen narnia. but i'm not ready for that day yet. so hopefully in a few years they will still have my snow cone.
