Help with Medical Expenses

Donation protected
My name is Jennifer Moreno Sanchez, I am 30 years young and I have a 4 year old daughter who is my world and my husband whom has been by my side for over 7 years.

I've just thrown out an amount that will cover my most recent bill and everything else is going towards my upcoming specialist appt and copays which I haven't been told the price of yet. (Will find out when they set my appt date) anything you can donate or even a share is greatly appreciated. It's taken a lot for me to swallow my pride and admit that I need help, but that's where we are.

To explain a little bit of my situation for those who havent been following my posts and updates, About 6 months ago I began feeling off and asked my dr for some blood work to check hormones and thyroid etc i couldnt lose weight and was feeling foggy and having scary memory problems among other things... When that blood work came back it started a whirlwind of tests and problems ever since. I have been diagnosed with hyperpituitarism and early menopause so far but there is also some unexplainable, critically high and low blood counts that are way out of whack that the drs are concerned with. I then began losing weight out of nowhere and next went my muscle mass to now I'm down over 60 lbs in 5 months and look like a ghost of my former self. (Not to mention having no clothes that fit anymore!! but that's trivial compared to the debt)
After a battery of CT scans, Xrays and lymphoma scans and an allergic reaction to contrast they have found a mass on my pancreas body and another on my left kidney pole. I truly believe the pancreas mass is responsible for all of my problems but won't get any answers until the next specialist gets me in for biopsy.
The only thing I've been able to keep down for months is PB&J otherwise im horribly sick for hours on end. (Even ketchup is now too spicy??) Every night since October, I wake up in hot flashes and nasuea every few hours and I'm lucky if i don't wind up in the bathroom vomiting early every morning after eating. Needless to say its a struggle to eat to try to maintain my weight and try not to be admitted for malnutrition (and add more debt) let alone keep the energy up to work and care for myself and my family.
I've tried to work to make what money I can to pay for appts and gas as my insurance does not cover specialists and I've been from Temple to Austin and everywhere between being bounced from dr to Dr.
I've been seeing 2 OBGYN, endocrinologists, reproductive endocrinologists, family medicine, hospitals and now referred to an internal medicine specialist. Self pay for each of these specialists coming in at over $600 each we have all paid out of pocket but this last round of tests with the 5k bill plus knowing more tests and at least 1 biopsy are still in the works, these bills are becoming unmanageable. Now I am down to under 108 lbs (was 167 in October when the first blood was drawn) and have lost so much muscle mass and energy its becoming harder and harder for me to work and care for my self, my child and my home at the same time.
We have been applying for every affordable insurance we can find that will cover specialists and frequent dr visits but every where we go we get quoted more than half our rent in one monthly health insurance payment and we just can't swing it after draining our savings trying to get me help. It doesn't help me not being able to work very many hours due to being so sick and weak. I'm lucky to make it into a shift let alone have the energy or strength to complete a shift. My husband has been working non stop, picking up side jobs and scrapping metal and doing anything he can to stay afloat with our bills and still pay my copays and gas money, but it's takeing its toll on his body as well and I hate to admit that we cannot do it alone.
I am looking for help chipping away at these larger medical bills while we try to pay off the copays and office visits and smaller things we can manage. I will post updates as often as possible, as of March 30th my *urgent* referral to the internal medicine specialist had been received and my appt is being processed so I am hoping to hear back from them this week.
If you cannot donate please share the word and help me pay off this medical debt and send good vibes that these drs can remove this mass and find out what is happening to me before it is too late. I'm trying to stay strong and positive for my family but losing hope with how long I'm having to wait for answers, all the while hoping this thing inside of me isn't cancerous.
