How desperate am I based on my symptoms and suffering with clear interference in the general well being of my health (mixed up MRIs, seeming disregarding of my symptoms even as I rarely use the healthcare system).
So, let's say I enter the U.S as a tourist. Always enjoyed my time there, was treated more respectfully by U.S border guards than the Canadian wannabe Stasi. Can I just walk into a clinic and say, "I'd like these tests done please, how much does it cost"?
I had one lady from Texas tell me I needed a referral from a Canadian doctor. Well, this is precisely the system I am trying to avoid, the system too many Americans support (even though clearly the U.S is well informed when they say, deny inviting Canada into AUKUS or call Ontario a backwards province, for example).
I just want a simple capitalist exchange of money for proper service. I can't continue to suffer and in fact, I have three focuses for selling my home: some retirement money, complete my MBA (hopefully) and get proper medical assistance.
