I heard that medical bills dont effect your credit score, why not just get the treatment you needed if you were really in pain? I wouldn't care about money if it was like that.
I'm really really stubborn b.
My parents stopped by and were like, "WTF YOU DOIN'?!!?! You going to the doc manana, guay!"
I was pale, in the lightest weight i've been in over 10 years (i've been a steady 220 since highschool, i was about 208 during the episode).
My pride was paramount to my logic. I just kept pressing on. Fortunately, i'm okay (for now).
Long term? I don't know how fukked up my insides are as i can still feel remnants of the salmonella in my digestive system; almost as if its still fishing in my abdomen, waiting for me to eat something tainted and fukk me the fukk up something tumtamble. I don't know if its lying dormant or i was so traumatized by the event that even a little upset stomach paralyzes my psyche and i'm suddenly in defense mode and react with anxiety.
haha. i get delirious thinking about it.
Almost as if i thrived off of the misery and state of excruciation.
But i wouldn't wish it on anybody.
The funny thing is that my boss really needed me to come in because we were so behind and i'm the only person who can maintain the flow of the business (by the fourth day, it became mayhem).
I ultimately caved in and came to work at 40 percent. Still hunched over in my office chair cuz of the stomach hurting. The workers were like, "Shiit man, you still look sick as hell."
I got sick on a Friday... it wasn't until the following Friday (coincidentally, the day after my first dose of the Prilosec) did i begin seeing signs of good health.
By friday afternoon, i was good. It was like a dime piece with maternal qualities and a heart of gold fall in love with you (and she could cook). By the next day, i was able to play my first game of flag football (scored a touchdown... lol).
But now, looking back, it was like my health hit rock bottom.
By the end of the day, what's a million or billion dollars if you don't have your health?
That's number one priority for me - as long as i live.
Embrace this thing we call life. We're so delicate and fragile.
Live. Learn. Love.
