RE: PRETTY MUCH DONE This is just showing the inner thigh that is detached. The hamstring ...

I'm totally speechless to be honest. I can't imagine the excruciating pain you must be experiencing everyday. I have a few family members that are in pain all the time - I have a family member with arthritis in every joint. It's total hell.

So is it that the doctors can't fix you because they don't know what to do, or they won't fix you because of some money issue (insurance and whatnot)?

Sort:  

Well you see its all in the politics. Im disabled. So I have Medicare which is federal insurance and I can go anywhere in US for treatment but they only cover 65 percent. So I have medicaid which is state, and its the supplemental thst will pick up the 45 percentage if im in Nevada. The hospital i need to go to is in Arizona. You see it isnt just that muscle. My c section is torn open, small bowels are herniated through abdomen, i have a complete large muscle group tear, hamstring and inner thigh buttocks. And matching injury in the rotator cuff/shoulder. Because of all this I currently walk around with a partially collapsed lung. I already pass out, that lung just made it worse. The doctors here never fixed anything just watch, stabilize and let go.

That's heart breaking. Sounds like you've fallen through the cracks of a faulty healthcare system. In the UK, you'd have gotten a full treatment, and for free. It's not actually free, people that work and pay taxes also pay a National Insurance contribution. It might take a while, and you might be on a long queue, but you'd get all your treatment that you need.

I'm so sorry to learn of your extensive injuries.
