I would call my doctor and do a video call with her. Then go get x-rays. I would have to get it casted too. I would have my gloves and mask during all of this. I would hope it is my left arm since I am right handed. My Hubby and kids all can cook. I have easy meals premade in the freezer at all times.

Hospital and doctor visits are covered under our health care. Also, our health providers are really helpful if you let them know you are struggling financially to pay for things not covered. They will ask pharmaceutical reps for free samples or discounts, tell you about programs to look into for help, Rhonda A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00448188064878559345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359618907926889520.post-75725488541297715912020-04-15T11:35:00.758-04:002020-04-15T11:35:00.758-04:00Wow Patsi, I assume the 'you' in your post...Wow Patsi, I assume the 'you' in your post is actually you. i am so sorry that happened to you.
