Doctor Bills Out of Control

The cost of being ill is ridiculous. Today I had to cancel therapy because they wanted $414.00 upfront. I know in my head that everyone went to college and the costs of everything is going up but this is totally crazy. $414.00 to show me some stretches and exercise that I can probably find online - I know what you are thinking, maybe I won't do them right. I have been at therapy before and nothing really helped. I know I need the surgery, but I have to wait until Medicare because my work insurance won't do it while I am overweight. And then I have to find a surgeon who will do it while I am overweight - or I have to loose weight. And speaking of that I just lost another 3 pounds so makes it 23 total! Yippee so only 80 pounds to go. (Or at home I am already there because I keep the number posted on top of the scale so I always weigh 145 - 20 more pounds then I need to loose but I did weigh that once, for a day) Toni...
