I've actually heard about that. Over in Europe medical assistance is free. Makes me want to move and if this country goes any further towards the right, I will |

But even here people are not satisfied. I remember the uproar when this fee of 10 Euros was introduced some years ago. That's what I like about hearing experiences from people from other countries. Then I'm like: Oh well, we're pretty lucky in Germany.

In the UK you don't pay anything ever (Unless you go private)... well you do, but through taxes Why would anyone go private then? Is it better quality or anything? You get seen quicker. Say you're diagnosed with cancer, on the NHS you're averagely waiting around 2 months for an operation (That's if it's not really urgent/critical) whereas privately you could go in within a couple of days. |

The clinic I go to only charges $15 dollars for whatever I'm getting. Even if I'm getting an eye exam or a bump removed it still just cost me $15. But they don't have a chiropractor, or whatever you call it, so I can't get good help for my back from them.

Oh Lisa I had the same problem few years ago so I can feel your pain so much. That's the reason why I stopped my karate lessons. Well I know one really fine drug named Diclofenac www.drugs.com/diclofenac.html I hope it's not too expensive. You can try it, that's helped me in my case. Take these pills about 2-3 weeks till you'll get better with your back, it works. |

Not only for muscles and how I can get in your case you got a spinal column trauma with a nerve clutch so this is why your spine hurts. This medicine doing anesthetic and anti-inflammatory process. ( I don't know how to spell it right) Sonja said true about sleeping on the floor and you can try to hang on the horizontal bar to stretch out your spine's disks. sorry for my bad english i'd like to explain better if i could.

Yeah, I lay on the floor for about three hours (during the ball game) and it's getting better. I'm gonna try to find some muscle relaxers. A friend said she had got some over the counter ones and they worked. Thanks  |

*continues rant about the health care system in the US* So, I had to unexpectedly go to the doctor this morning for an issue that cropped up overnight and needed IMMEDIATE attention. Don't get me started on trying to get an appointment, but when I finally got there, they charged me EXTRA because they had to find somewhere to squeeze me in. No reason other than for needing to be seen right away did they charge me an extra $20. It's not a lot of money, but it is when it hits my bank account and bounces! So then I went to get a prescription filled. I had 2 prescriptions, one of which consisted of ONE pill. The prescription was literally just one pill. I only paid $8 for hte ONE pill, but the receipt said my health insurance saved me $26 on that particular prescription. Can you imagine paying $34 for ONE PILL?  INSANITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought $8 for one pill was pretty darn steep. *steps off soapbox* Lisa, is your back still feeling better after laying on the floor? Stephen had a back problem and he put an icy hot patch on it and it was instant relief. |
