Enema: Friend or Foe?

[shaina]

Macky.... If you really are speaking the truth and you are having problems going #2??

And you do have some medical insurance/plan there, go see a doctor just in case It really can't hurt...

Everything myself and Idol suggested could be just band-aids to the problem, and i hope it really is just something minor and not serious, especially if you have fear of eating properly or the way you want too..
Again you shouldn't have to go every second (like i said i felt like a camel when it came to going #1 yet i was consuming a lot of liquids), but it can be dangerous to keep all that poison in your body, and maybe the Dr. has a better suggestion ??

Good luck my friend, and i wish you nothing but health and happiness

If you think you have found a grammatical error in a short post by me that appears to warrant correction, reread the statement to determine if it may have been intentional. If the read alone doesn't reveal anything, try sounding it out in your head or aloud, and try once more in your best American accent.

tl;dr

Mary is so far past perfect that Mary shouldn't be questioned.

Do I come off as someone who would have medical insurance?

Actually, I was insured for a total of 13 years under coverage I selected (we'll only look at two 6-year stints), but I opted out during the open enrollment period (renewal) at my first industry job because I was going to transition to grad school, and 45 days after the loss of coverage I was admitted to the ER for v-tach with arrhythmia, was kept in the ICU for 5 days, and then placed in a regular room for 2 days, which was finally followed by some outpatient procedures. It was a massive fucking bill laid at my feet. Fuck the details of how I settled those debts. I insured myself again in grad school, and after 6 years (the last 2 years were free) I rejected a TA appointment which also disqualified my free coverage, I had to be admitted for an appendectomy 60 days later. I joined the employee health plan for the first six months at my current job, but upon the renewal I thought, "why the fuck am I doing this?" and opted out.

So, let's just round things and say I was uninsured 200 days out of a 4500-day period, and the only two times I had to visit a doctor during that 4500-day period are those two big ticket items during the relatively small windows. The most useless $20k I've spent is on health insurance because I can't seem to time the fucking transitions properly. I'm not paying a single fucking private healthcare insurance bill again. I still get upset thinking about it. My last girlfriend and I fought over me being uninsured during the last year prior my assertion to leave Florida.

The ACA (Obamacare) actually addressed one of my biggest complaints (preexisting conditions), but all the rest were untouched. The cost of treatment is opaque and artificially inflated, enrollment period restrictions, too many variations regarding out-of-pocket costs that make deciding between dozens or hundreds of provider's a fruitless endeavor, profit-driven, premiums still too expensive and even more expensive in some cases after the ACA, fucking networks, fucking motherfucking networks.

It'd be a riot if whatever is going on with me now somehow resulted in a sudden death because I mismanaged it. For small things I might visit a clinic, but otherwise I'm extremely adverse to seeking medical attention. I never had a chance to really enjoy the benefits of coverage and being treated in a hospital without panicking every conscious minute with how I'm supposed to pay for all this. It's to the point that if I ever go back, and they present treatment options, I'd only respond with a question, "Do I have to pay if you just let me die?"

I usually operate under the tB;dr rule.

mine was:
it's mary; didn't read

Now that I've showed you mine, show me yours

Too British; didn't read.

Before anyone takes offense, I went to a doctor and he said I can't be blamed for the things I say because the CT scan found that my mouth isn't properly connected to my brain.

In that case, there's also tW;cr
Too Welsh; can't read
which is abbreviated in Welsh as tW;tmlpwtr
Too Welsh; too many letters per word to read

[IdolEyes787]

I should probably attach an asterisk to it because in Ben's case it could also mean too bohemian; didn't read.

Mary, considering you're in Japan, try to have a little bit of fun. Have you considered inviting someone to help enema your butt? Have you tried shooting it up with caffeine in the mornings? Have you tried asking someone if there's an enema tube designed like tentacles?

Now that I've showed you mine, show me yours

That's the spirit! Cum to the Dark Side.

If I didn't somewhat like tolerate your existence, the above would be kinda funny. But i have suffered under the same Industry shit- just been fortunate with the exception of 6 years of excruciating back pain that I could not afford to get treatment for.

I am much better, but now that I do 'get' to pay over $230 per month for insurance, my condition is better and my new doctor won't bother with any covered tests- seems inclined to have me do all kinds of shit that isn't covered, though. *cough* asshole *cough*

Well... Being honest Macky...
In Canada we do have free health care, but there are things you are charged for now (semi 2 tier) , and prescriptions drugs are not cheap if you don't have a drug plan....Plus when i travel to the US i buy insurance (actually from CAA, would be your AAA auto insurance), it is really not that expensive(I see a lot of EGG ROLLS in there doing the same thing when they travel), and i guess because i am not on any life threatening medication, and also my age, and it is good for the year...The coverage is really good as well.

And i don't wish anyone bad (well...mostly ), so you saying sudden death/die because you don't really have yourself checked out?? if this has been going on for a long period of time and it is not correcting itself, is not good....Get Checked Out!!!
