Chastidee’s story

July 31, 2013

I having been living with this disease for the past 5 yrs. I have had 2 major operations and have made at least 13 trips to the e.r.

My last encounter was yesterday, and the e.r. doctor told I need to find a surgeon fast because he could not get to the infection, its too deep. I called the surgeon office she informs me that just a consultation will cost me $100. I am 28 who cannot work in any field that requires hard labor because I was involved in a vehicle-pedestrian accident where i was the pedestrian. So this pain in addition to the pain from my accident is horrific.
