ITT: I Need Medical Advice
I have shoulder and knee injuries that likely will require, among other things, an MRI or some sort of advanced imaging. I do have insurance but the out of pocket is still more than I can handle right now.
What are some options for someone in my position? Can I shop around for more competitive prices? Should I seek a second opinion especially if it won't cost me anything out of pocket?
I know this is sort of a self defeating question in that, if they do find something, it would possibly require a surgical intervention which I also couldn't cover at the moment either. That said, I am so tired of being uncomfortable/in pain every day. I just turned 27 and I walk around every day consciously avoiding or trying to take it easy so as not to further injure myself. At this point, I just want to know what the problem is.
Any advice is appreciated.
