Drowning in medical bills

Drowning in medical bills

Three years ago when I fled for my safety I thought by now I would be breaking even. I was struggling and needed help covering HBOT fees.

That hasnt changed.

What has changed is that I had to have a hysterectomy which due to the size of my uterus causing what should have been a 1.5 hr surgery, became a 3hr surgery and an admittance to the hospital. The fees for that are a lot.

I had huge costs pre surgery to be cleared, many doctor visits and co-pays plus a $500 deductible. Many ppl have a much higher deductible but for me it may as well have been $10k. When you teeter at poverty level it is hard.

As I was learning I needed a hysterectomy, I met with an amazing Functional Medicine MD. I explained how I was beyond fatigued & having issues getting from one side of my 800 sq foot home to the other. She spent 50 minutes w/me. Touched places on my ankles and neck and asked a lot of questions. She said she suspected a few things and rattled them off. One was spike protein. I thought that was impossible considering my choices and I had never been ill. But sure enough it was found in me.

Make your own conclusions.

She put me on a strict protocol to try to rid my body of spike. Its not 100% chance it will leave me. But I have no choice. We all know what it does to ppl. It most likely is what caused the massive fibroids and bleeding and the hysterectomy.

The regimen is upwards of 17 pills. Its a lot of money. Money I dont have.

On top of everything else, some animal destroyed my manufactured home’s vapor barrier. I thought I had it fixed and had saved up and paid someone to patch it but clearly they scammed me. These photos are from a licensed Company, taken a few days ago. For ONE channel and some patches they originally quoted me $1400 but I managed to get them to come down to $980. I am waiting on another quote this week.

But unfortunately there is more. My frame is showing rust. And if I dont have them fix it and protect it I could lose my entire house. If you know anything about manufactured homes you will understand this. So I need a quote for that as well.

I am going to see if I qualify for financing but I suspect not as my debt to income ratio is not good right now. I recently refinanced my car to lower monthly payments to help pay down my cc debt. I did not expect this issue and expense.

I am stuck. I cannot afford a condo. I wish I could. It would be less maintenance and a more pleasurable life. But those homes are beyond my reach. Those of you who have known me for many years know I had almost zero options and was lucky to find this home & have a roof over my head.

I literally spend every penny I have to keep this place habitable and have nothing left over. I never go out anywhere. If I treat myself to a meal, it is when there is a special for $5/$10 and its occasionally.

Below are photos the inspector took and gave me, from the damages.

If you can see it in your heart to buy a few gift coffees to help cover the enormous expenses I am facing, I would be beyond grateful.
