Things that Obamacare does that Transcending Obamacare doesn’t 1.Induce rate shock. The ACA introduces an entirely new layer of federal regulations into the individual health insurance market: tens of thousands of pages of onerous requirements that drive up the cost of health coverage. Transcending Obamacare is carefully designed to cover the uninsured without drastic premium hikes. 2.Force people to buy health insurance. Infamously, the ACA contains an individual mandate, imposing finan ...

Have you ever had Synvisc, Euflexxa, Hyalgan, or Supartz injections? Did they help? I've Googled it and have read yays and nays. My doctor suggested I try a series of Euflexxa. I've had many cortisone shots, but my doctor said cortisone actually makes the cartilage weaker (and I have thinning cartilage), so he doesn't want to do anymore of those, which I hate because they are like a miracle cure! (at least for a few weeks to a couple of months). Thank ...

Does anyone have any tips for working iwth OA of the knee? My right knee hurts so much I cannot push on the foot pedal. I use the left foot but still can only transcribe about 20 minutes without a long break. I am freaking out because I can't work and therefore can't pay my bills. TIA! ...

I have recently been diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my right knee which causes my whole leg to ache whien transcribing. Does anyone else have this problem and any suggestions to help this achiness? It makes it very difficult to keep working. TIA! ...

First let me start by saying that I have had two arthroscopies on my right knee and one on my left for basically worn out cartilage and some "fraying" around the edges of the knee cartilage, but never an outright tear (according to MRI studies all three times). My knee problems have always started out first with pain, achy-type feeling, stiffness, and a tight band-like feeling around my knee, sometimes hurting on the outer back of my knee (I know I have a Baker's cyst in both knees, b ...

I had a knee arthroscopy February 1. I've had arthroscopic surgery before, but these incisions look different this time. There are two incisions about mid-knee, right and left sides of knee, that look like typical sutures tied with a knot, but below these two are smaller incisions with what appears to be a strand of suture running lengthwise across the incisions. Has anyone ever seen or heard about an arthroscopic surgery with sutures like this? I'm a big chicken with a very low pain ...

Have been told by orthopod that I have bone-on-bone in my right knee. He suggested surgery and gave me Tramadol for the pain. Surgery is not an option financially at this time. I have been losing weight in order to take some of the pressure off. I cannot take the Tramadol and work because it makes me sleepy. Cannot take NSAIDs because of the GI side effects. Any suggestions on how to deal? TIA ...

Two years ago, I tore my medial meniscus and was thankfully able to heal in a few months by using crutches and participating in physical therapy. On Thanksgiving, I hurt my knee again. There was no precipitating factor other than just walking inside the house. What is concerning is that I am now having pain even when not putting any pressure on my leg. Please pray that this heals. My insurance does not pay for specialists (like an orthopedist) or any imaging studies ...

What can I do for severe knee pain and I cannot walk? ...

Have been having trouble with my knee since about spring of this year. I had a knee scope ten years ago for some torn cartilage, and the knee did great for the ten years following, but flared up this past spring. It gets a very tight and full feeling with a big bulge in the back of the knee, and I keep telling the doctor I believe it is a Baker's cyst, but he doesn't suggest anything for it. He did tell me that is where the fluid goes because it has no place else to g ...

Has anyone tried working with a knee brace on? I am not having much success and cannot afford not to work. I went to the ER last night and was told I need an MRI and probable surgery, but I don't have insurance. The ortho doc wants $150 for first appointment. Very frustrated!! ...

up from a sitting position especially. I have to stand there a minute to get moving. Stairs are even hard. What can I do to keep them bendable? Is it better to keep bending and exercising them or trying not to? I hate getting old. I just hate it. I'm feeling sorry for myself today. ...

I got out of bed Saturday, and when I stepped down, there was sharp pain to my medial knee. I cannot walk on it. Thankfully, there is next to no pain when there is no pressure on it and it is not fully flexed or fully extended. Medial meniscal tear and/or MCL tear? I have leftover NSAIDs from a neck problem years ago and some old tramadol, which are helping. On his way to borrow a walker from a friend, my husband passed a yard sale and noticed a pair of crutches. &n ...

Hi, I've recently had a knee injury - something I've never had before, so I'm unfamiliar with what to expect. Have any of you ever had a knee injury such as a sprain or ligament tear, and if so, what were your symptoms and how long did it take to heal? Did it ever feel normal again? I'm in my 60's, and am still an avid rollerblader. My knee problems started about 2 months ago, when I was getting a little tired near the end of a 12-mile group skate I w ...

Before we even receive any care from our doctors, we will maybe have to front their total bill, and (hopefully) be reimbursed by the insurance company??? http://www.woai.com/articles/woai-local-news-sponsored-by-five-119078/new-medical-records-rules-could-change-13756294/ ...

and Mexico in 2013. (CNSNews.com) - According to refugee data from the U.S. Department of State, the federal government did not grant refugee protection to a single person from Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador or Mexico in fiscal year 2013. Now, almost all of the unaccompanied children illegally crossing into the U.S. from Mexico are coming from those nations, and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and other congressional Democrats have described these illegal aliens as “refugees.” ...

One was for an outstanding warrant, one for public drinking, and one was an antiabortion protestor for annoying other attendees and violating a court order. Three. (None for marijuana, BTW.) The protestor had climbed a tree at the Mall and was yelling (as one would expect of a protestor, of course) throughout the ceremonies. Police couldn't talk him down, and he he climbed 40 feet up to avoid them, so they decided to let him be--for 5 cold hours--and when he finally climbed down he was arr ...

maybe a little too positive to take in one dose even for an optimist like me, but Tesla, manufacturer of electric cars, has opened 6 recharging stations to the public and plans to have them all over the country (not ALL over, I'm sure) in 2014. A charge for their cars takes 1/2 hour after 3 hours at 60 mph, but will cost nothing.

The truth is finally coming out. Blocking of Hillary's emails, and thehandling of Ambassador Stevens' request for more security by ignoring his requests is more than despicable. Who is responsible? Hillary, of course. She was the head of the State Dept. She was totally incompetent as SOS and will be worse than totally incompetent as the president. I hope people will wake up soon and realize she only wants the job because she can siphon off more dollars for her benefit, just like ...
