Hi I have come to ask a quick question.
I don't have health insurance and I don't really feel the need to go to a doctor if there is really nothing wrong so I just want to ask.
Lately I have been experiencing constant headaches, right where where my temples (on my head) and on both sides.
I take Tylenol or Advil and nothing is really helping me, I've been experiencing this pain for the past 3-4 days and it gets to the point where I can't handle it anymore.
I hear there is a bug going around but it's not just my headaches, every now and again I will start getting nauseated and sometimes get diarrhea anytime I eat anything.
I'm a little concerned and some answers and help would be very much appreciated!

We can't diagnose you online...this is something that only a doctor can do. It sounds like you should make an appointment to see one.

I agree with Odinn7, you can't be diagnosed online by anyone. Take some of the money you are saving by not buying insurance, and go to a doctors office. Unless of course your health doesn't matter to you.

Smoothy, you know I adore you, but that wasn't really fair. Not all people are saving money by not buying health insurance. Some people live paycheck to paycheck at jobs that don't offer insurance.

That said, it really could be anything from a migraine to meningitis. We cannot diagnose via the internet. Call doctors in your area, some give discounts to those without insurance who pay in cash.

You might be right J_9... I was basing that off the people I personally know that don't have it (which certainly isn't everyone)... I was raised in a different time when I was taught that was the most important thing to have besides a place to live, and a job. Every other luxury took a back seat to those. And as long as you made your health a priority...you had a shot at getting everthing else.

I hear you Smoothy, but these are different times with different circumstances.
