Excellent article - have tweeted!

DON'T FULLY rely on what is avail in clinics and hospitals. UP your immunity by eating right. What Queen Erin really needs zinc and whatever mineral enzymes her diet may be missing. Avoid fizzy drinks that already have benzene, phosphoric acid and aspartame. Reduce white bread (has alloxan). Reduce eating charred meat at bbq!

Remember what happened to Michalel Jackson? He totally trusted his doctor to administer stuff for him to sleep and awake!

Rather than waiting and relying on an organ transplant, and unless you're mentally unstable, read about what can actually help you to heal without risky prescription drugs etc!! Chromium for example help type 2 diabetes patients' pancreas to heal and ditch the need for dependency on insulin.

The thing is, you have more control over your health than THEY want you to know.

I almost lost my left leg – but I am walking and whole. Just a little 'wiring' issue. Nerve damage, joint issues and because of the trauma, fibromyalgia. I'll never be 100%, but I can be better. It just takes sooo frikken long. And I can't deal with the expensive meds that insurance wouldn't fully cover, etc… I have been using homeopathic and herbal remedies and lots of fortitude rolls (geek humor). So – I can wholly sympathize with QoS and the ignoring and now taking a breath to deal with the issues of body non-compliance.

You have my total sympathy. My mother was bitten by a brown recluse
and it nearly killed her. That is a life-threatening situation that
can ONLY be handled by medical professionals and hospital services.
I'm sure you believed you could rely on that insurance to help you in
an emergency situation like that, only to discover later that you are
being punished for something that was completely out of your control.
Grrr.

I just finished paying off – after two years of monthly payments that rivaled my car payment – the part of the hospital bill that insurance didn't cover – and I was “Fully Insured” by a large corporation.

I should be getting follow up checkups – but I am working as a 1099 contractor now because it keeps me from having to push my now-damaged body into a routine that would hurt more. So – I have some insurance through my husband's job – but it is limited in scope and high co-pay and high visit costs and high deductible…so I avoid.

What was so horrible that I have to live like this? I was bit by a brown recluse spider while putting some decorations in the attic. Nothing I did to myself – nothing I neglected – just an accident of fate.

And people say that our nation's health care system is 'just fine'? Try being unhealthy in this nation and see how 'fine' it really is.

Yikes… and yeah – not a huge surprise either.

I'm playing a waiting game here on medical care and have been insured for a very long time…

I wish it made sense – but mostly? I just wish Erin an easier time than she's been having!
