HAPPY BIRTHDAY [livejournal.com profile] kryptyd and [livejournal.com profile] lodelco!! ♥ :D :D :D I hope you had a good time today~♥

Wow guess what~? I don't apply for free testing for cancer (see prev post) because I'm not over age 40. \o/ I feel bad about it but I bit off every single person's head on the phone that answered me that way. =A=;;; Women under 40 can get breast cancer- hopefully I don't have it, it's likely something else statistically, but, still, there is a lump that shouldn't be there, you jerk clinics. I am not calling asking for a free fondling alone. Bah, I'll call around more on Monday. *grumbles* What a joke. There's so many 'free' offers but only if you meet certain requirements (age being one of them). FAIL.

Sorry I'm late commenting too, my lil bro is visiting. I'll get to it right after he leaves~:3 So much love for you guys. ♥

/drive-by

God don't these people get that checking it early means YOU CAN GET CURED? IT MEANS THAT EVEN WITH A POSITIVE RESULT, YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO LIVE. Unlike the cancer my mom got, for example, which only shows symptoms once it's advanced enough that the chance of surviving it is really, really low. I can't believe any fucker in the universe would deny people the opportunity to get that fucking chance ghdskgjdslkfjdf /rages forever

Good luck on Monday DXb

Lump where it shouldn't be? Oh dear I really hope it's not the worst case scenario ;A; And what, so young people don't get cancer now? Don't they realise that checking early is a GOOD THING? OTL
I had a check once to get my study visa done for Australia, and it was NOT AWKWARD OTL (the doctor was male and worst off, my friend's father OTL OTL OTL OTL OTL I still feel violated thinking about that OTL)

F*ckers. According to this new screening BS that's been in the news lately, it's women OVER 40 who don't need the mammograms every year, presumably because they have LESS of a chance of developing breast cancer, and MORE of a chance of getting a false result from the test.

I kind of snapped at the receptionist for my dentist who called me the other day to confirm my auto-appointment. I told her I couldn't afford to go there anymore (they always do all these x-ray scans on me and it costs over $100 for even a basic checkup; I know they're doing it to pay for their equipment).

From: [identity profile] evercool.livejournal.com
Wtf, I heard something about that the other day. Doesn't sound quite right to me, but what do I know. x_x;;;

Ah, I had that same problem last year. I kept refusing appointments I didn't NEED (like cleaning/check up) that cost money, and only going when something was actually. They acted so offended, but my God their charges get so unreasonable.;;;

Well, it -is- recommended for people who are at least 40 to get scans ~_~

But keep trying? You might get somewhere :3

Yep yep, I'm not done searching yet~! =3=

Well, isn't that just peachy.

Retarded money whoring clinics are retarded. :/
But there's gotta be at least one place that'll do it for free, without these catches.
If there isn't, nothing makes sense to me anymore. At all.

Monday = good news!
Or else I'll call the clinics in your area long distance to bitch at them myself.
Ugh.

Date: 2009-11-23 12:44 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] evercool.livejournal.com
Yep! Hopefully there is ONE clinic, somewhere around here, that isn't such a joke. =A=

Monday shall hopefully be a good day. xD

Wow, that's crazy. Don't they realize they could be condemning people under 40 to die?

I used to work in a cancer hospital - I know very well that people can develop cancer at all ages. Sure, it is more likely as you get older, but do they really want to take that chance?

Date: 2009-11-23 12:45 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] evercool.livejournal.com
Probably for some money related reason, they don't seem to really care about that factor. u___u;;;

You shouldn't feel bad about biting heads off! Heads are tasty and to be enjoyed! D<

What about Planned Parenthood? Don't they do free/not-insanely-over-priced breast fondling? You know, they should be paying YOU for gettin' to cop a feel.

I haven't tried PP yet, I'm going to call them Monday. It took me too long to find the correct number before their office had closed for the day. :x Hopefully they're better than the other jerks so far. =_=;;

PP has helped some of my friends a lot. It could be entirely a regional thing though. It's so hard to find good medical help, let alone pay for it. I'm definitely thinking positive for you. .v.d

Ugh, that's so stupid, I can't believe they'd even say that. :( I hope you have better luck Monday.

...do they do a check on your family history?

My aunt is a nurse and my mother had breast cancer when I was in high school - I could ask them for their opinions if you'd like? Though I know that's not a replacement for getting tested.

Seriously, if you need help calling around or even just doing searches for applicable clinics, I am so willing to help.

Date: 2009-11-23 12:48 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] evercool.livejournal.com
They didn't even ask me, but my family doesn't have a history of it so that would probably make them even less likely to accept me if they did. =A=;;;

Thank you for the offer! x_x *hugs* I'm going to see how successful Monday is before I throw out burden on anyone else though. orz;;;

Wow.... 0___o The current American healthcare system sounds... really frustrating. I'm a little bit of a hypochondriac and I think I would feel so vulnerable if I wasn't able to just book an appointment at the local doctors whenever I felt like something was wrong!
I really hope you do manage to find a free clinic that will check!

Date: 2009-11-23 12:50 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] evercool.livejournal.com
It really is. xD; My sister needs surgery on her kidneys and she can't even get it done until next year because that's when she becomes eligible for the health care she needs. So she has to deal with the pain and sickness until then, it's crazy.

...that's ridiculous. People over 40 get free everything, including the best medicare/medicaid in the country and they get this too? I'm just.

...I'm sorry.

Gah, what the fuck?! Preventative care, we are doing it wrong!

I hope you can find someplace that will check you out, but if not, I will be happy to help you pay for a check-up.
