Ive had a few weeks off work due to a foot problem with complications. I spent a week in hospital on a drip and have had home visits for the last fortnight where the District Nurse changes the dressings.
Today I am going to the clinic to have new insoles fitted in the special boot I am having to wear. I will get another one in a few weeks when I dispense with my moon boot.
Turns out I am type 2 diabetic so I have been started on metformin and glicazide tablets. I keep forgetting to take them and they are giving me a hard time over it.
All of this is paid for out of general taxation which I have paid since I started work. I wont receive a bill for all of this and my only gripe is they got my breakfast wrong one morning. I ordered toast on wholemeal bread and not white bread.
I wonder what this care would cost me if I lived in the US ?
