No insurance, have health problems, need specialty visits… what should I do?
3 wks ago I started getting mentrual-like cramps that was targeted mainly on my left side. After about 2 wks of that I went to the Health Center at the college I go to and saw a Physician. She did a pelvic exam and I had some blood work done. Now after 2 1/2 wks of cramping the pain turned into general pelvic pain, the pain doesn't feel like cramping anymore... it's worse! So I went back to the Health Center she says that all the tests she did on me came out normal and so she doesn't know what else she can do for me but suggest that I go to a Gynecologist. My problem is that I don't have any health insurance, the only thing I have is Family Pact & it might cover another pelvic exam by the Gyn but nothing else. I might have to have an ultrasound done & would have to pay that cash. So far the cheapest Gyn I've been able to find is 0 for consult (might not have to pay that b/c I have Family Pact) & 0 for an ultrasound. Should I just apply for health insurance now (4/mo + cpay)
or should I just try to find the cheapest way out of this? What I'm worried about is that I might have something serious and go through surgery or something and I'm sure surgery procedures won't be too cheap if I'm paying cash. Also, what if I need medication...
Also I heard that if I get insurance after seeing someone for this, if my insurance finds out then the insurance would charge me for it. Is that true?

How do I get mental health care in Hillsborough county, Florida? (I live in Valrico,FL)?
I don't have insurance, I don't qualify for medicare (the government health care) Brandon outreach can't help me, ECHO can't help me, Panos Center can't help me (without insurance). I'm getting desperate and my depression is ruining my life. I need help bad. I feel like no one can help me and I should just give up. I feel like maybe god is punishing me or that I don't deserve to be happy.
are doctors who work in places like clinics/health centers just as good as ones who have private practices?
if you are going to like a free clinic or a community health center to see a doctor, are those doctors just as educated and qualified as ones who have their own private practice? if so, what are the reasons the doctors work in a clinic type environment rather than their own private office?
for insurance reasons, my daughter has to see her pediatrician at a health center, and not a private practice. i just want to make sure she is getting the same kind of care. we have had on appointment and so far it seemed good. i just wanted to make sure.
