Thu, 07 Sep 2017 03:14:43 +0000http://imaginarysunshine.com/?p=4141#comment-534316I’ve always been envious about the awesome healthcare system that Canada has to offer. Ours is so shitty here in the US. :/
My Dad has to pay the first $3000 towards his every year before his insurance even kicks in. I’m eligible for medicaid since my income meets the requirements, but there are so many loopholes. I have Endometriosis, have to see a specialist, and rely on birth control to suppress the pain, but the government wants to stop funding most birth controls, so I’ve had to switch around a lot, which also has an impact on my hormone levels and well being. It’s been fun… NOT.
Not going to lie, I was pretty freaked out there when my optometrist mentioned “retinal detachment”. I’m so pleased that I got the specialist appointment *super* quickly though, and it’s all resolved now and more of a ‘monitor’ thing rather than waiting to get something more official.

We all know the pain with getting an appointment with any kind of specialist…
I am not sure if happy is the right word but I am happy and somewhat beaming for you! 🙂
