Help Me Breathe and Sleep Good
Donation protected
Hello, friends. I'll keep this brief.
In December I saw a doctor because I discovered I stopped breathing with some regularity while I slept. Apparently, it's recommended one breathes ALL THE TIME, so you can see the dilemma I'm in.
In order to determine the next steps for my continued being alive, I was scheduled for two at-home diagnostic tests. However, in the intervening time I lost my job with the good insurance, got a new one with worse insurance, and then the whole pandemic thing happened.
Long story short, what was going to be a simple procedure with an out-of-pocket cost of $250 is now going to cost me ten times as much, with $0 covered by my current insurance.
So, I rather than ignore the problem until I get a better job with decent benefits (or suffer permanent complications from the not breathing), I'd ask around to see if anyone wanted to "Help Me Breathe and Sleep Good."tm
I understand times are tight for everyone, but I appreciate any help I can get.
