I recently was sent to the hospital after overdoing it on cocaine and oxycontin. I didn't have my insurance card with me, so they sent me a bill. It's for $2500.

My fear is if I report it to my insurance company, it's going to be on my record forever. It might already be, I don't know. The discharge papers from the hospital say something about drug use.

I can afford to pay it out of pocket if I have to, but naturally, I'd rather not. If I claim this on insurance, can they use it against me in the future? Or can another insurance company use it against me in the future. Is it more likely to hurt me if I report it, or can anyone find out about it anyway?

If someone has some experience with this, I'd love to hear your take on this.

Thanks.

Im worried....I used to binge eat a lot ( I never got overweight or anything) but whenever I binged I would eat sugary and fattening comfort foods. I no longer do that as often but I recently noticed that I have some symptoms of Diabetes Type 2 ( dont know if it's a coincidence or if im being paranoid or something?)

anyways, my question is how can I find out if I have it or not? a blood test? how would I go about getting that done ?

thank you!

She eats ice all the time. She craves ice often. Pagophagia is a form of PICA and this specific type includes people who eat ice caused by an iron deficiency. Sometimes when we hang out she alwys asks if she can have some ice. I heard that if you do have pagophagia, you could be bleeding internally, is that true? AND, why would someone be addicted to ICE if they don't have enough IRON? Does ice contain iron or something? Can you please explain?

I went to the neurosurgeon yesterday for back pain. After looking at my MRI and X-rays, he noted that I have a degenerative disc and transverse vertebre. I then gave him a list of methods we have already tried for relief, he looked at them and took several options out of possibilities. So, when I asked him what we are going to do. He said nothing. He said that there was no solution. Do I accept this, or do I try and see another doctor? Keep in mind I am 17 and cannot stand for more than an hour, walk long distances, or sit/lay down for a certain period of time without pain for more than a day. So, do I continue on to a specialist, or do I believe that there is simply no answer as he told me?? Thanks.

I know that there is a phobia name for pretty much everything in the entire world. However, i have this really weird phobia that i do not know the scientific name for. I do not know if this phobia really exsists but i think it does. Does anyone know what the scientific phobia name is for................... Basically i hate it when people get mad, it completely scares me, like when someone starts yelling at me my heart just stops and i can't breathe and i get really freaked out, and that happens WHENEVER someone gets mad, does anyone know the phobia name for that, the fear of people getting mad?

I am an autograph collector and there is a fellow collector who brings his child along. The child is three years old and does not want to be there.

The hobby consists of long hours outside and dealing with the weather. During the spring and summer, it isn't so bad, but lately he has been bringing his child to go for celebrities in cold weather in light jacket. Several times I have seen the child cry out that she wants to go home, but her father won't listen.

When asked why he brings his child, he replies, "My family doesn't want to take care of her." We have tried several times to get him to get a babysitter or, not go to the shows if it means harming his daughter, yet he continues to bring her.

I am seriously considering contacting child services, but don't know if I am overstepping my boundaries or if there is another step I can do. After all, it is his child and he has the right to raise her as he sees fit

I think I was slipped a roofie at the bar last night. My friend and I were at a bar last night and we were really stupid and drank a guys drink and I read online that if you slip a roofie into a light colored drink it turns blue, and he had a blue drink, but it comes that way, but it makes sense. I can't remember the night, but my friend and I did things we would never ever do and we didn't drink that much at all, I drink MORE than that every time we go out together. My friend was telling me to call a cab and I guess she said that i was saying i couldn't because I couldn't move even to dial my cell. And the guy who slipped it saw us outside when we wanted to go home and he came running after us trying to get in our car, but I can't really remember any of it. I have his picture on his my phone does anybody know what i should do? Should I try to go to the police? Is it able to be found in your body so i can use it as proof? I don't know, but my friend and I are really freaked out.

Also, how would they tell?

Answer everything you know, whether or whether not you think it is boring...it is not boring to me.

I am an aspiring firefighter/paramedic and have some questions.

Paramedics: was there ever a day as you went through school or even when you started the job that you didn't feel like you wanted to be a paramedic?
Because I get this some days, but I am ignoring it, because I really want to be a firefighter/paramedic.

Is being calm in the situations a paramedic is put in a mind thing. I think it is. Because i see the possibility of God teaching me to be as calm as you can be in a situation and I see it as being in the mind. That you have to control your emotions and such. Is thist true?
Also what can I do to train myself to be more calm in very serious situations?

thank you.

I'm not a big fan of Michael Moore, but his latest film "Sicko" is so revealing and addresses a need in this country.
We live in the greatest country in the world, why can't we go to the doctor or hospital for free, like in Canada, Britian, Mexico, and Cuba????

I mean, I understand how hair is kept “Healthy” because of the oils that are naturally produced by the body and if you don’t produce enough it would be good for your hair to give it hydrating oils and creams that would smooth the cuticle layers to keep it from fraying and frizzing but does giving it “Vitamins” really do it any good?

How can a “Dead” cell use nutrients?

When you apply hydrating creams to your skin you are both hydrating the LIVE cells and helping remove the dead ones so I understand vitamins in Body Lotions but for hair? It doesn’t make any sense to me.

Any thoughts on this?
