Sucks.

Well, my mother lost her job which means I lost my health coverage...it really sucks but a part of me is happy this happened after I had surgery. I would have never been able to afford it self pay.

Unfortunately, I still have a gallbladder and the medicine I have to take to avoid gallstones was over $300! I was able to find an online coupon that got it down to $193 but seriously...that is expensive.

I've found out my visits to my follow ups are only about $80 which I know I can afford and basically because I'm a college student and make less than a certain amount a year I don't even qualify for any healthcare plans. My only option is to go to a low income center for primary care. Which is cool, I guess...I just hope they can help with this prescription...the site has a base fee of $30 for anything which really isn't bad.

Its just*sigh*..it was nice while it lasted...(Sorry, just venting).
