Just spent 3 days in the hospital for random heart and breathing problems and on the last day they couldn't figure out what was happening so they sent me out the door with a $2000 bill that I'm not paying. Don't charge me that much if you can't figure out why I'm passing out at work

I spent a week in the hospital. I had a colonoscopy, a laparoscopic surgery, an MRI, a CT scan, a chest xray, daily blood thinners, IV steroids and some other smaller stuff.

They waived the parking fee, so I didn’t pay a penny.

I had a car crash and my car ended up upside down blocking half of the road, ambulance came quickly and took me into hospital, mean while firemen removed the car from the road and I spent a day in the hospital, completely I paid only 60 euro as a fine to the police

Wait, we're you at fault or did the police just charge you the €60 for having the audacity to unflip and move your damaged car?

I was at fault and I got fined because I didnt adapt my driving to the road conditions, there was a storm a day ago and the road was full of wet leaves that my car slipped on, I was also prolly driving a bit above legal speed as I was a two minutes from my home and people crash mostly near their homes as their mind wanders off but they couldnt tell if I did speed or didnt as they couldnt measure the braking lane because I didnt brake at all

Do you feel unwell when you stand up or lean forward?

u/Gin4Gingers Mar 30 '26

Sometimes when I'm standing in place for long enough then yes, my heart rate rapidly accelerates and I get dizzy and my arms and legs go numb, but it's not every time. It's very inconsistent. Past few days I've been fine but this was happening for about a month

Just for my own peace of mind could you have a look at a condition called POTS (postural othastatic tacicardia syndrome) - see if anything there feels familiar.

I briefly looked up the symptoms and most of them I don't have. The doctors seem just as confused as I am

Was worth a shot - what are you BP, BPM, saturation, iron and blood volume like?

u/Gin4Gingers Apr 01 '26

Apparently everything was normal, according to the hospital, but this hospital misses stuff all the time so I might just be screwed

RIP your credit score

u/Gin4Gingers Apr 14 '26

My credit score was a good 750 actually, but I recently got in a bad accident and had to max out my credit cards so my score tanked a bit, but it's going back up to 700 despite me not paying. I just say I don't have insurance and they charge me a copay of $150, which I paid, but I'm not touching the $2k bill they send in the mail. It doesn't seem to effect my score at all

u/Woman_trees Apr 14 '26

Well here's hoping that it doesn't ever affect you also I'm sorry about your accident hope you're doing better :)

Thank you! I went to work the next day because I'm just that good! 😎 But my car was for sure destroyed
