So why didn't you guys just say no when they told you they wanted to do X-rays and/or CTs?

Morphine, and I was actually kinda nervous. I had a wierd pain in my neck, and some lump in my lower back. Turned out to be all good.

it was cold as shit my robe got caught in the door and my twanger was hangin out

im allergic to morphine guess what they gave me before asking //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/sick.gif.b1847c8dabbfeeddbcf1a78052249e10.gif . the insurance tried to pin it on me because i had just turned 18 but im still claimed under my mommas insurance so i think we paid a percentage of it ( actually my sports team helped pay it along with the league i played in)

When my wife had our child the bill was over 10k, which is generally more than a usual pregnancy, but they had to take the baby and cut my wife. I forget the techincal name for it, but was uber expensive.

We were responsible for 900 dollars. Not too bad if you ask me.

C-section, that was it, lol! I am dead tired today.

1) Our healthcare system is a big scam as they put in 1 price on the bill but insurance companies XX% of that based upon their negotiations

2) messicans will go to the ER and get treated but not pay the bill, the tab is picked up by the rest of us.

3) All the gov't ever focuses on is the supply side of the system and worries about how many people are covered. The root cause is the cost and that is where we should focus, time to snip snip snip the fat.
