Question:

Serious health issues...and no way out...?

Ok. I'm going to list my health problems. I need some serious advice, especially so if you live in NorCal.

Epileptic Seizures (Petit-Mal)

RhinoSinusitus

Sleep Apnea

Deviated Septum

Insomnia

Enlarged Heart

Fatty Liver Disease

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

And...a problem with bowel movements (ever since I had gall blader surgery I'm either constipated or have diahrehea all of the time...there is no in-between..and it's been this way for 6 years now).

I've tried to seek medical help...but I have no insurance, so I can't afford the docs. I can't work..because of the seizures (everyone says if I can get cleared/on meds they will hire me..but until I'm medicated..they can't take that chance because I'm a medical liability). I've tried to apply for Medi-Cal and other forms of help..but because I have transportation issues..and getting over heated sets off my seizures, It's not exactly easy to walk 12 miles each way to where I have to go just to apply for the help. My fiance makes to much for food stamps, and I'm too damned honest/too much integrity to lie about being with her (especially when I'm marrying her next year). I want to get the help I need so that I can eventually get back to work, get me in better health and contribute to society, not burden it. I feel like all I am is destined to just die an early death though because I can't get that help I need to get better.

What do I do? (oh, and as for the busses...we can't afford the busses...money is that tight, the same goes for the lightrail..and the lightrail is still 5 miles of walking each way..and it's just too much for me to handle on most days (without having my seizures start up).

Can anyone tell me how to get the help I need so that I can get better and not end up dead by 35 or 40? (I'm honestly scared that I will end up dead by then and i'd like to see my 60's and 70's if at all possible). My fiance can't take any time off work btw...they will fire her for it. (she's the one with the car...not me..I'm not allowed behind the wheel of the car until I have a year seizure free (which means I need the meds)).

For the record....we live in the Sacramento Area......so if you are familiar with that area...it does help.

    I think that this will definitely help lower the stress and strife you are having to endure and hopefully by reducing your stress it will ease some of the symptoms you are dealing with. It will also improve the overall quality of your life.

    I am sorry to hear about your struggles and I wish you the best of luck in finding answers to your problems.

  3. you will get the medical attention you need, i'm 100 % positive that you will. just have hope. btw don't you have any hospitals?

  4. To Be honest,It will take a little time to find the answer for the question of yours.have a look at the resource here for your reference .http://health-insurance.onlinebestoffer....


  5. I live in Solano County near Sacramento.  Don't they have a clinic near Oak Park where they charge according to income?  I think it is on Stockton Blvd.  My heart goes out to you.  I would even call a local news station and see if someone would like to interview you and do a human interest story.  There are allot of caring people in Nor-Cal.
