So due to a lapse in my Medicaid coverage, I currently don't have insurance. While I could go to the doctor willy nilly at first, I can't now. I'm shopping around for insurance and the rates are fine, but not cheap by any means. Especially with deductibles, co-pays.
I also am going on vacation beginning of May, and I don't have about an ounce of PTO left after that. I currently have 2 hours of it because my vacation was approved.
So honestly the soonest I can get to a doctor is maybe June, July. I'm just so scared that somethings going on right now.
Basically it's my bowels. TMI warning ahead of time.
So I'll have solid bowel movements for like half the week. The other half I'll be peeing normally but then my bowels are thin, watery. Not upset stomach type thing but it's like just a few dribbles of anything are coming out.
This isn't an everyday thing but its kind of on and off and I'm just really scared its something more serious, especially since I can't get to a doc right away.
I'm 20. Tiktok sucks for fear mongering and it seems as though everyone my age or within my age range is getting colon cancer diagnoses. There's just an uptick, and I swear one day I saw like 5 different stories about people's colon cancer diagnosis.
I'm going to try taking maybe prebiotic and probiotics? I'm just hoping that'll fix it because I'd hate to go to the doctor, have to get a referral to a specialist, ect ect. So on, so forth.
