So the stress caused acid to build up in my stomach. Overbuild of acid + cuts from the bacteria in my stomach caused them to open up worse and for me to bleed out.
Over the years doctors keep blaming it on stress and telling me to chill out, but its quite hard to when every month something new happens, my child died, fiance killed herself after wards, best friend gets shot to death, and so on.
I was on Medicaid for a while, but they sent a package for me to fill out to the wrong address. Because I never got that on time I was kicked off and I cannot get it back. So I am just basically screwed insurance wise and cannot get help no matter where I turn.
Edit: And the kicker, Bush recently passed a rule, where even if you declare bankruptcy, you still have to pay it off...so doing so is quite useless for me now.

Holy crap dude...this is off topic from the debate, but seriously, I hope your luck starts to improve. I would probably have a ton of ulcers too. Perhaps you could try to write to a politician or somebody somewhere with your story? Maybe a news program?
Yeah...I'm starting to think some of these programs are poorly managed. My friend who is really sick right now had the medicaid people fuck up things so he has to reapply and an all sorts of other things. It really makes you wonder...
