It sucks having no insurance when you think something is wrong.

Yeah, I'm working, but it's only part time, and they do offer insurance, but for me, I can afford either my student loans or insurance payments. THIS. SUCKS. :(

2. There's a free clinic in my county, but I'm working when it's open.

I'm not going to go into any details except this is really annoying and after looking up symptoms on the net has me a little worried.

4. I would go anyway. Your life is more important than your job...

6. I know exactly what you mean.

I got an earful from my mother from not taking care of some of my medical conditions. I'm not insured - she is, always has been through my dad. I gave her a quick math lesson and she changed the subject. But if you can get to a free clinic then go. It's probably nothing and the relief you feel will be worth any other inconvenience. :hug:

But I kind of matured late, and went to college late. I Identify more easily with people who are four or five years younger than me rather than those of my own age.

*sigh* Fuck. Any Canadian women here willing to marry me? :P
