I am exhausted after an excruciatingly frustrating week dealing with the US medical system. Basic tasks and appointments become anxiety riddled algebra problems, where the patient is asked to weigh costs and quality of treatment with intentionally imperfect information. How did we get here?

Nobody there is your advocate, you must treat them as the enemy or they will kill you in ways only different than what you showed up for. I’ve had 9 breaks and 6 surgeries myself. They can fix broken things but because of the systems design you shouldn’t trust any of them can heal or help you by default
