I really think it's fascinating and I appreciate the kindness and support I've been shown here, I tend to be a bit of a worrier and at times desperately need gentle and reassuring words (or a slap upside the head lol).
I found this board in an internet search during a time of panic, I had been having nonstop spotting and was very worried that it was something sinister. Thankfully, it turned out to be fibroids and as of right now the bleeding has stopped.
Yes, our healthcare is different, it's a huge issue here as our current president has passed into law the Affordable Care Act. As of right now, my family is insured by the company my husband works for. He pays a fee out every paycheck, part of it goes directly to the health insurance comapny, part of it goes into a health savings plan. We have a yearly deductible of $2,500 per person, which we use the health savings plan for.
Once our medical bills reach the $2,500, everything is paid for 100%. I am very happy to have the freedom to go to any dr I choose without prior approval.
However, we do not know how long we will be able to keep this health coverage.
