I've been struggling for over a month now with kidney stones attached to the sides, cysts and calcium deposits on my kidney. The main hospital I've gone to has done nothing to help. I don't know if that is mainly due to me having no insurance. But I feel like they keep running tests, finding additional things, but giving no solutions. "Just wait it out. It shouldn't be causing pain since their embedded." WHAT?! I've missed an average of 2-3 days each week due to the pain. I've had 4 ER visits...4! And its all due to pain. I have received no medication from them to assist with these problems. My 4th ER visit, I went to a different hospital. They were luckily able to get my medical records from the other hospital. They want me to see one of their Urologists, but I'm scared of getting the run around...again. My medical bill right now is almost $5,000. I don't need to rack up another bill with another hospital. What do I do with no insurance? Any home remedies or something not costing an arm and a leg? Any suggestions on who is the best to see in Springfield, MO or rows close by?
