I Should Sell My Blood and Urine on the Street

I've been writing about my doctor visits and how they've been going and everything, but nothing prepared me for this. In January I went to see my doctor and got a nurse instead. It was okay because she was really nice. But anyway, I got the bill from that office visit and it was $600.00. "What is wrong with these people", was my first thought. I called the business office because I knew there had to be a mistake, I hadn't done anything there besides give blood and pee in a cup. I talked to the representative and was informed that this was no mistake, they were indeed charging me 600.00 for "lab work". That lab work included testing blood and urine. I'm totally shocked. Who would've thought that blood and urine would cost sooo much. At this price, I should be selling my clean urine on the street. This is ridiculous and makes absolutely no sense.

Doctors, Doctors, Doctors

I've said before that I HATE, HATE, HATE going to the doctor, hospital, or anyplace of that nature. Yesterday I went to the doctor to check on this sweating that has been happening. Well, what do you know, I didn't see my neurosurgeon, but rather a nurse practitioner and I must say she was extremely nice and I may have found a new doctor..lol.

Well, after seeing the doctor, I found out today that I have even more doctor to go to. Because I can't tell if something is hurting on me, tests are needed to confirm that I'm healthy and okay. I now have bone scans and other tests scheduled for later this week. I'm not scared or anything, which is surprising. I just want to find out why I've been sweating and get my heel healed. I also had blood work done and I found out the best needle for me, the butterfly.

I hope everything's okay with me and this has taught me to pay close attention to my body and when something changes, take note and get it checked out.
