I hate military health care
Simply put. They suck. Yes, it's free but I would much rather pay and get stuff done right the first time.. Let me start my rant with what happened last year. Somehow I managed to get blisters in my throat, they said it was something viral going around. So here I am with a swollen throat, I cannot drink water or eat pudding without cringing trying to get it down. I would rather have strep throatx10 than to ever have what I had again. I go to the ER on Lester since it was a weekend and the clinic on Kadena was closed. They give me freaking Ibuprofen 800. That is a horse pill to me.. I can't even swallow regular tylenol without getting my mind right first. So worse comes to worst and I just had to suffer through it. Ibuprofen is the military's miracle drug and my moaning wasn't going to change anything. Fast forward to last week. I go to have my annual pap done at the clinic on Kadena. The Doc said everything looked good and I should hear something within two weeks if there was something wrong, or get my paperwork in the mail if everything was okay. So, tomorrow would've been two weeks. I get a call today saying they didn't get enough cells from my cervix to get any results back. For me, having a pap done once a year is horrible, let alone having to have it done twice in two weeks. Someone shoot me. Just another reason I can't wait to get back to the states where I can find a DR that I like.
