Thanks to my shiny brand new status as a Student, I will soon have health insurance. Crappy insurance, but still.

Hell is being seriously ill with no insurance in this country. I finally went to the doctor (a family friend who gave me break after break) and paid out-of-pocket just so I could get prescriptions for some relief, but they still have no idea what’s wrong with me. Because I can’t pay for the super-expensive tests. Ah, yes. We are so advanced. This is what we call ‘healing’ in my country: money.

And the next hurdle will be the old “Pre-existing Condition” nightmare. Have to figure out how to sidestep the fact that this has been going on for…ever, unless I want to wait 3 more months. Then tests. Oh joy.
