Went to hospital and as it turns out, they refused to tell me if my insurance would cover my visit. The ER registration even went so far as to tell me they have to see me by law, but could not tell me if they were in network. So I had to drive around to find some care. According to tests and symptoms I had a Trans Ischemic Attack. This basically means that I am a candidate for a full blown stroke in potentially days, maybe not, not sure. Resting now, but worried about bill.
What happened is I was carrying pizza, got lighted, huge pressure on my left temple, and just went sideways. Flat sideways. Like someone just pushed me to my right side. I wasted three slices of MOD pizza, which I feel terrible about.
I have not been doing a lot of work but I have tried to use my platform to help others. That doesn’t change here.
So I am asking you to use this as an open thread to post your causes, needs, or concerns in the comments and discuss why oh why it is so hard to get even one straight answer from a medical organization.
Anyways the help I need is if anyone has dealt with this, just how big of a train coming at me could I be looking at? Anything to eat, or lifestyle changes that worked for you? Thanks in advance.
