Depending on your income you might be eligible for Medicaid. That'll pay for everything. I didn't have any insurance at the time. A nurse woke me up at somepoint and hooked me up with Medicaid. She saved my ass. And then i spent a couple weeks wearing grippy socks. Maybe it could be beneficial to dive in and get help at the hospital.

But don't hurt yourself to do it.

I understand 100% where you're coming from.

Make a long term self improvement plan. That's my real advice. That's what's helped me.
