If you don’t have major medical expenses you might want to consider dropping the health coverage entirely and paying the ObamaCare penalty. The penalty is only $695 or 2.5% of your income in 2016, which is probably much less than the $2,200 per month that you’re expecting to pay.

Thanks, I am in remission for CLL (leukemia) and I was just Diagnosed with something called MDS, Myelodysplastic Syndrome (called Pre Leukemia which they say cam morph into Acute Leukemia).

It was most likely caused by the Chemmo Drugs used to fight the CLL over the past nine Years. That came out of left field, but they are just monitoring it right now.

Robin Roberts of Good Morning America had it and had to have a Bone Marrow Transplant which worked out for her.
Her Sister was a Match.

Of course, Life gets even more interesting. Had to get a Chest X-Ray because my Doctor wanted to be sure the Bronchitus I’ve been battling for the past six weeks didn’t turn into Pneumonia.

Well, they saw something on the X-Ray, so I just had a CT Scan. Yep, there is a Nodule in my Lung. Going to a Specialist later this week to see what he thinks. The fun never ends, that’s for sure.

Before anyone asks, I never Smoked, Drank or did Drugs.

Oh yeah, another surprise in the Mail today. My Insurance is denying $12,000 in Claims for some Shots I received after Chemo to keep my White Count up. At the time they were approved, now they are saying the Paperwork wasn’t Processed in time. Time for more Phone Calls, what fun.

Sorry to drone on, just wanted to clarify my situation. The point of my earlier Post is very simple, We Are Suckers.

I appreciate the concern of all who Replied. Thank you.
