today’s menu:
broth
gatorade
jello
tea
1 banana

WTF is wrong with you, lady?

Have you seen some holistic hippie doctor type person?
They might be able to find some root thing or things that causes all this while western medicine is more focused on chemical/pharma cures for symptoms.

Can't hurt anyways.

You (and the rest of us) need @Ledboots

ok so we have free healthcare
and kids up to the age of 21 dont have to pay for any meds
but unless you have insurance you are paying premium for meds.

Hmm stuff like that seems to be left out when peeps from up north brag about how much better their health care is in Canada.
 
@Maureen what does does health insurance cost out of pocket up there on average?
my wife got health insurance for her employees, they split the fees and its about $50 a month Canadian each - that usually covers 80% of everything

I have a better health plan through my work, and it costs me nothing. Yesterday I picked up a prescription for my son that costs $220, and I paid $14 put of pocket.
 
Bloodwork drawn yesterday at the hospital as part of my routine physical exam. I don't exercise or eat a well balanced diet. Not sure what my cholesterol level or any of that other jazz will show.

Let me preface this with, you guys clearly have a better heath care plan than us. However, lots of people have great plans through their work, so I don't think that answers the question.
