So I was recently in the hospital and found out that what I was supposed to have surgery on back in 2023 is now literally 10 times worse or grew 10 times size I should say anyway I'm not sure what other options I would have as far as getting into a bunch of specialist with no money or insurance. I had Medicaid 2020-2023 somehow and one day when I went in for my pre-op they called me when I got home and said we had to cancel your surgery unless you're able to pay for it out of pocket. I was seeing eight different specialists including an oncologist and a colon specialist in Orlando. I currently go to BHA in which they're zero help I have charity care through Orlando health which basically covers my hospital bills thank goodness. I don't drive or have access to the vehicle like that so it's kind of hard to get around to other parts of the state like shands or Moffitt. It just stinks that Florida is the only state that has not expanded medicaid.

I'm just so exhausted for not being able to stand or sit for too long without being an excruciating pain or other issues going on with my GI. My dad passed away from a bowel obstruction from his j-tube so I'm not trying to fall in his footsteps.

I am dealing with a handful of medical problems on the inside and the day of my pre-op for one of my surgeries Medicaid got cut off out here in Florida in 2023. I've been reapplying over and over and over again with no avail. I've also recently just reapplied back in February 5th for medicaid/ssi back door through the food stamp website. But everything's just been in limbo and it's been past 90 days. I've been in and out of the ER these past couple weeks and I found out that I was looking at NovaSure back in 2023 and now I'm looking at a full hysterectomy on top of a colon removal. Anybody else dealing with the state of Florida and Medicaid? If I could get out of here I would move in a heartbeat. Lol
