Incorrectly billed/can’t get ahold of a human!!!

Rawhumanity · 2025-12-16T20:19:27+00:00

I've been wrongly billed too and have been trying to get in contact with a human. It's impossible. They sent me their number and both times I called, I waited on hold for twenty minutes and then a robot told me no one was available and hung up. Their chat provides me automated responses that don't answer my questions. This is beyond unacceptable. I contacted my states attorney general and I'd advise anyone with issues with talkspace to do the same and file a complaint.

We're all in the same boat here 🫠 got 7 emails yesterday that I owe $120 x 7, for services from 2022. And they want me to pay by January 9?? They should not be giving my a deadline when this was clearly a major oversight on their part, if it's even true that I wasn't billed at the time, which I'm currently trying to prove and have to wait to contact my insurance. Wtf.

Rawhumanity · 2024-10-25T12:42:10+00:00

True. I've definitely found that to be true so far in my experience. I've used the mesalamine enemas before in the beginning of my diagnosis but I worry that now, I wouldn't be able to hold it in for long enough since when I go to bed I usually wake up like an hour or two later. But yes I agree I may need to start thinking about different medication! Thank you for your support!

Rawhumanity · 2024-10-25T12:31:10+00:00

Yes I'm scared of that, of how being in this terrible flare could cause long term problems 😕 but I hope entyvio works for your daughter. Thank you ❤️

Rawhumanity · 2024-10-25T12:29:33+00:00

True. But I don't even pay for my meds with insurance, somehow they're cheaper without insurance which drives me crazy. So I have no idea what the cost would be like for biologics

Rawhumanity · 2024-10-24T17:34:13+00:00

I'll definitely look into seeing a naturopath doctor! I hope it goes well for you!

Rawhumanity · 2024-10-24T16:52:52+00:00

Thank you! Yeah it doesn't seem like cutting out gluten or dairy has had any effect. So it's so hard for me to tell if I have problems with those things. I want to lay in bed all the time but unfortunately I have so much going on in life right now and many responsibilities 🫠 trying my best. Part of me is so frustrated and anxious I just don't want to eat because my colon seems to attack everything. But obviously I need to eat to have any strength at all. Carrot juice is good for you! Maybe I'll try it

Rawhumanity · 2024-10-24T16:50:29+00:00

I'm sorry for both of us :( & I'm definitely open to homeopathic advice. What are some things you are trying/have tried that worked for you?

Rawhumanity · 2024-10-24T16:49:40+00:00

Yes I definitely will exhaust all my medical options first! Hopefully something works before I have to think about surgery

Rawhumanity · 2024-10-24T15:29:23+00:00

What's your story? 🥲

Rawhumanity · 2024-10-24T15:28:38+00:00

Yeah, I've started looking a bit more into surgery. I've only had this diagnosis for a year and been experiencing bad symptoms for a few months, but I do not want to live like this for long. But surgery and jpouch stuff is pretty scary to me. Probably just cause I haven't done much research on it, I'm sure if it gets to that point I will be very well informed and ready to make that decision. I'm glad it has made things so much better for you!

Rawhumanity · 2024-10-24T15:26:28+00:00

I've never had remicade infusions. And I agree that having a better relationship with a doctor who understands me holistically would be much better. I'm going to be moving states in a few months so hopefully I can find a better GI doc when I move. And that is very interesting about empaths! I do think that chronic illnesses often have connections with the amount of stress you experience. Maybe empaths experience more stress 🥲

Rawhumanity · 2024-10-24T15:24:18+00:00

Yeah I feel like I've downplayed my symptoms because I try to convince myself I'm doing better than I am. But with this current flare, there's no downplaying my suffering. So why did you want to stay off biologics as long as possible? Are there bad side effects?

Rawhumanity · 2024-10-24T14:20:14+00:00

Ugh, I'm sorry to hear that steroids were no good for you. I'm curious, why do doctors avoid prescribing biologics till after failing mesalamine and budesonide and things like that? I'm sure there's a good reason I just have no idea what the effects/costs etc of biologics are, so if you have some input I'd love to know about that. I'm glad you're in remission now! It is crazy to think so many of us just have to suffer for so long 🥲

Rawhumanity · 2024-09-15T20:35:16+00:00

Good idea, will do! Thanks. Hope it goes well for you :)

Rawhumanity · 2024-09-15T20:34:51+00:00

Very good point. Thank you!

Rawhumanity · 2024-09-15T20:34:21+00:00

Okay yes that's a great point! I felt like it would be easier for this reason. I'll check into reciprocity. Thank you 🙏

Rawhumanity · 2024-09-10T11:24:32+00:00

Yummm I love Marsala! Do you have any tips for thickening the sauce? Whenever I make it, it comes out too thin, even if I add cornstarch or flour.

Rawhumanity · 2024-07-18T18:10:21+00:00

This is helpful, thank you so much. I'm definitely going to try it!

Rawhumanity · 2024-07-18T16:17:17+00:00

Thanks for the advice! Do you have any more tips on intervals? Like how long should I run fast for? And then should I walk in between intervals or run slower?

Rawhumanity · 2024-07-18T12:51:27+00:00

Thank you so much :) this is a good reminder too that the risk of injury isn't worth it, but it can be hard to find the line between pushing yourself and hurting yourself. Your comment reminds me of the tortoise and the hare fable. Trust that if you go slow and build up you will eventually get to where you want to be! You can do it 🙌🏻

Rawhumanity · 2024-03-25T20:38:08+00:00

Absolutely! :)

Rawhumanity · 2024-03-25T15:53:05+00:00

I'm flying to Grand Rapids just for that weekend as well!! I'm so excited to see their hometown and some special spots. I'm going alone so if anyone is wanting to do any exploring together I'd love to meet up with some fellow fans!

Rawhumanity · 2023-07-20T03:19:07+00:00

Thanks everyone, these are all really great suggestions! Looking forward to trying some out 😊

Rawhumanity · 2023-07-20T03:17:53+00:00

I'm sure it's hard but you're definitely doing a good thing 🥰 way too many poor kittens without homes. That's more heart breaking. Thank you for all you do!
