Poor

I have had some swollen lymph nodes in my neck for over a year now. I tell my doctor and he just gives me antibotics(sp?) and sends me on my way. Now I have knots coming up in my legs just below the fold of my knee on the bottom side. I hurt all day every day all over my body. I am a 43 year old female, I have no insurance and can not really afford to go see a doctor. No doctor here will help me. If you don't have alot of money or insurance, they don't care if you die.

Can you apply for medical aid, or even try to pay the bills over a period of time?  I think you should try to see a Doctor who will deal with your problem. Get a routine chest x ray and get those lumps on your leg looked at.  If you can't afford it now, pay later, (they can't take money, if you haven't got it) but nothing is more costly than poor health.

How true!  I have no insurance either.  It's like a stray dog alone side the wrong gets better treatment than anyone without insurance.  
Do you have a free clinet in your county?  We have one in our very small populated county although I believe it is only open one or two days a month for only like 4 hours but if you have something like that I would try to get in.  Here it first come first serve bases.
