the Cardiologist says I am getting too symptomatic. Scheduled me another appt in October (went from 1 year appts, to 6 months to 2 months!) and said he was going to make a few phone calls to duke. I have been upset because G and I were secretly hoping everything would go well and we would be in the process of trying to have our second (and last child). We decided though if it came to surgery, I am not going through a second surgery just so I could have a baby. I am mourning the child I never had and probably won't and have just been really closed off for the last 2 weeks. I know though that in the long run I am making the best choice for my family, including the beautiful four year old I have already been blessed with and was told I would not be able to have because of my heart.
Anyways. I am considering requesting a copy of my medical records but its .75 cents a page, and Money is a MAJOR issue for me right now.
On top of this, I got demoted at work. I was a Head Start Asst teacher, and due to some More at Four laws, the Agency running my Head Start had to move staff around. Long story short, I am now a substitute teacher. Which means I am loosing my insurance.
I really don't know what to do now. I can't put off these appointment any more. Lack of insurance is why I skipped four years of appointments. Part of me wishes I would never have went, but I realize that in the long run that would be worse. I don't know how I am going to pay for any of this. :frown2:
