health update: need money for the MRI
a year ago
current progress: $100/100!!Continuation of the last journal! On Tuesday I was finally able to visit a neurologist about my poor condition. First of all, the doctor prescribed me general medications for dizziness and sleep improvement (melatonin!!), and then sent me to undergo an examination by an ophthalmologist (fundus + visual field) and an endocrinologist (thyroid, tests), as well as an MRI of the brain... Without the latter, the doctor simply cannot make a diagnosis (and I would like to, it is so expensive and, as luck would have it, one of my worst claustrophobic fears). I am attaching a photo of the examination and referral for an MRI (feel free to use Google Translate or ask me to translate something)! https://imgur.com/a/aEauY61
I visited the ophthalmologist yesterday, on Wednesday! As expected, I still have angiopathy (as well as astigmatism, I will wear glasses for life), and fortunately this examination was completely free. But I still need money for the MRI (2200 UAH ~$55), and I also don’t know the required amount to pay for the thyroid tests. So at the moment I’m urgently looking for at least $100 as a starting amount for the examinations and to cover the first purchased medications.
I signed up for the MRI on Sunday, November 3rd, and even if I don’t collect the required amount by that time I’ll still undergo the examination, since the problem exists and it’s real, it’s just not getting any easier for me and I need to find out why; but I’ll pay from my debt card, getting even deeper into the red.
So a very relevant reminder that I’M OPEN TO ALL TYPES OF COMMISSIONS!! Preferably with full or at least half prepayment, and a deadline before the end of December-January (especially if the doctor gives me the correct diagnosis and selects the correct treatment).
I also created a google form for suggestions if you have ideas for new YCHs, adopts, etc. that you would like to see from me! https://forms.gle/4wyTFrkinJGe95MSA
I feel awkward leaving my PayPal or donation links here, but you can find them in previous journals.
Thank you very much for your attention!

Good luck with your treatment. I hope you can handle it!
