Knee = Basketball
If my knee is still the size of a basketball tomorrow, I'm going to the ER. I called my old orthopaedist and he wants $250 up front. Thank you, Dr. Keith, for thinking more about money than your patients! I'll be changing docs as soon as I have money. For now, though, I'll be adding to the healthcare problem by going to the ER and paying nothing. I think I have water on my knee and I'm in a great deal of pain. It sucks. I need surgery. I need help. But I live in a third world nation when it comes to healthcare, so my options are more than a little bit limited. I hate this place.
