I have no health insurance, I go to the free clinic in my city and don't get me wrong thank god for them or I wouldn't be getting the meds I get now at no cost. But they don't have any kind of pain management clinic and the usual stuff for my fibro is not taking away enough of my pain. I have a good day if I'm at a seven most days are nine or higher. So what do I do I can't afford health insurance medicaide won't cover me i am not on disability. so any advice would be helpful.

" I don't know. and it frustrates me to pieces when I can't afford to go to the doctor.
I just got off the phone, had to cancel my blood test and ultrasound appontments for tomorrow because I can't afford it. I don't have money to pay to find out about these ovarian cysts I have...I know off-topic..has nothing to do with Fibro.. but having to miss out on medical care because of lack of money is just WRONG!

Healthcare should be FREE! "
