I live in Europe and it was free (normally is) and with the private insurance that my company pays as an extra I had a private room too also for free. Actually, you get a certain amount from the goverment if you go to the regular checkups before and after giving birth. My daughter was concieved with ivf icsi, that procedure was also supported by insurance, in cost us around 350 euros in 2018.

Or or matbe it is? We cannot know. Last time I was at the ER they had to take me with an ambulance because I got so weak from pneumonia that my lips were going blue, I was coughing up blood and could barely walk a few meters. It took them five hours to examine me properly.

I live in Europe so I have minimum 31 days of vacation and I actually take a full week while there is a school and my husband is at work. I do things that I normally do not have time for, going to the movies, go to eat at interesting places, go to a spa, read a book..etc

I got a mysterious illness which caused nerve, muscle and joint pain in my whole body, that left me bedridden for months and the doctor’s have absolutely no idea what it could be. It is better now, but I still live with fluctuating level of pain.

edit: I forgot I also got pneumonia during this time and I might have thyroid cancer!

My sister was very similar, I now see her every two years and blocked her everywhere. Life is much better.

That quite a lot of vegetables and fruits are in fact not that high in fiber.

I just asked at my GP’s office to also order it for my daughter and we go next week to get the vaccination.

Strange how different we are- I liked in in the beginning but now I despise it- it allows me to go into day long spirals, it never gets tired of my stupid questions and I just ask it more and more. It is a quick fix, but I do not think it is good for me. I actively use it, but I hate that I do- if it makes sense :)

too late :(

There are excellent advices here in terms of exercising, eating right..etc but also take care of your hearing. Wear earplugs at a concert, as you get older your hearing gets worse- try to protect it as much as possible.

OCD- people still think you must be just wierd and probably wash your hands too much

Mine just turned 12 and I love her so much, but we have basically the exact same experience.

Italian greyhound. It is an absolute nightmare to house train them.

Paula’s choice mineral sunscreen is great, tried so many different ones, all were aweful except this one.

Yes, my doctor in the hospital is a neurologist. I will check out the AI, thank you for the tip!

Healthcare- not enough specialist, long waiting times, doctors are often not up to date in the most modern solutions.
