Hey guys, my name is Michael Sube and I’m asking for help with some medical costs that I’m dealing with now that I’m out of the hospital. As many of you may know, I’ve been extremely ill with respiratory issues as I’ll explain in more detail below.
I went to Harris Hospital on October 16th for a really bad cough and a heart rate of 187, but they discharged me with antibiotics that didn’t necessarily work.
I went back 3 days later, the 19th, and got a CT Scan due to the possibility of having a blood clot in my lung, yet they found nothing in my lungs or heart that was life threatning.
Again, giving me more medicine that didn’t help and sent me home. I then visited a different hospital, called Parkland, in Dallas, TX to see if they could get to the bottom of this. Unfortunately, I didn’t receive answers there either. Again, more medicine for the usual flu-season patient this year, and sent me home.
Through each visit with no solution, I’ve been charged for more money than I can afford to pay, because I don’t currently have insurance and haven’t been at my job long enough to receive benefits.
I just got my bills from Harris, the first hospital I visited the first 2 times, which states that I owe $5,387 for those visits.
That’s not including the Parkland visit or my return visits to Harris with testing which I decided to continue when the 2nd opinion and Parkland didn’t contribute any further information, and I am waiting on the return visit and treatments from Harris to be billed…
Harris admitted me after being unable to give me any answers on my condition, but I have no idea what a stay at Harris Hospital is going to cost me for 48 hours and all the tests/treatmeants they ran on me. In addition to my admittance and stay, I’m waiting to see what the costs of the follow ups and more breathing treatments/medications will be to continue treating whatever it is in my lungs. I’m assuming it’s going to be a much bigger bill than what my first ones are.
At the moment, I’m dealing with proving my medical-leave information to my employer and receiving pay for the days I have worked. With that pay, I’m going to start a payment plan, after my bills such as rent, etc. are paid.
I’m going to be on breathing treatments and antibiotics until it’s determined what is in my lung, and if it’s growing or benign with medication.
If there is anyone out there at all that could help me get out of this bind and crazy time, it would be greatly appreciated.
I love you all, friends, family and even people I don’t know that are willing to help. If anyone can, please help in anyway seen fit. I wouldn’t ask if it wasn’t cruciual.
I’m 22 years old and do not have parents or anyone that is capable of helping me through these unexpected medical conditions and costs, and anything helps which I greatly appreciate.
Thanks,
-love Sube
