She’s bruising easy, has no energy, no stamina, falling, breathless with little movement, sore muscles, cramping limbs, tired most of the time, dizzy, blurry vision and poor memory. She has terrible tummy troubles and has for years.
They never test for anything and just say she’s a faker. She eats meat and vegies. She loves salad and beef, chicken, pork. She’s not a fussy eater.
There are no hospitals that will see her since she isn’t gushing blood or have a broken bone. They treat her symptoms and tell me to take her to a primary care.
We took her to a free clinic, held once a month...there was no doctor, they were on an emergency, so the only thing we did was talked to a nurse.
The nurse thinks maybe a vitamin deficiency, charley horses affecting her arms and legs, and told her to take omeprozole OTC for her tummy and a multivitamin.
.The nurse prayed over her and said she “received” that my daughter was under attack from the occult, possibly for something she did to open the door to such an attack.
Interesting visit to say the least...we are going to try the suggested OTC meds and pray they work.
Prayers up for her and her family.
how old is crystal
Prayers for the young lady’s health.
Have they looked for an Urgent Care in their area? They will send you for most tests and are a great help.
There is a national program for those who cannot qualify for health insurance. Not many know of it. It is a PPO and guaranteed issue. The rates are good. (we subsidize it)
https://www.pcip.gov/ (sorry couldn't get it do a hot link)
Check to see if your state has eligibility
From me:
There is also the Hill-Burton Act, hospitals are given X amount of $$ to help those who need it.
Prayers up for Crystal and her family.
(she had a case of rotovirus when a baby.)
Her parents are military - took her to their doctors and specialists in Maine, Nova Scotia, Texas and Florida...went through a mountain of tests. Nothing - just ‘take antacids)
She took tums after every meal. Nothing stopped it.
One day, at a health fair, a Natureopath, (In many states, including Florida, a Natureopath is also a trained physician) - was offering to analyze a drop of blood and tell you the results. He offered to my daughter. She asked him to do her daughter instead.
He took a drop of her blood, put it his machine, and without knowing ONE thing of her past, turned to her and said: “Honey, does your tummy hurt after you eat?”
BINGO! He diagnosed glucose intolerance.
My daughter told her regular pediatrician - who scoffed:”Well, I guess if you try it and it works, you'll know.” She, the doctor, was indignant.
But that was two years ago. My daughter has become a gourmet gluten-free cook...and my granddaughter has no more tummy aches and has improved in all other areas of her health like night and day.
I do not imply your daughter has the same problem. What I am suggesting is that you might want to find a competent Natureopath - They may be able to pinpoint the problem with as little as one drop of blood.

The other thing also is, I thought ALL children nation wide, if there parents make only so much money a year qualify for Medicare/Medicaid(I get the two mixed up, it’s one or the other) My niece and her husband make around 50-60,000 a year and both of their boys get state health care.
PING
I hope you find the right care.
If the child’s symtomps are getting worse, she should be taken to the emergency and figure out how to pay for it later, or what options exist. You don’t want to risk the child’s life.
I am not in Oklahoma, but a quick search showed:
WELCOME TO VARIETY CARE, a comprehensive, family-focused community health center that offers primary medical, dental, vision, pediatric, WIC and behavioral health care to any Oklahoman. We accept Medicaid, Medicare and private insurances, and UNINSURED patients access services along a sliding-fee scale based on family income.”
Might be worth a try, if she is stable and you don’t think it’s really an emergency, but she needs to be examined and tests done to diagnose her.
I think the most important thing is to get her medical care ASAP.
Here is something else I found — medical care for the uninsured:

You might find this link helpful:
I also know of some OU medical facilities around NE 10th and Lincoln that will try to test and diagnose unusual health issues for free. They have OU medical research in this area and it’s beneficial to them to get hard cases to diagnose.
I think you can find someone to help you there:
What about the Federal “CHIP” program — gov insurance for children:
https://www.cms.gov/home/chip.asp
“Originally created in 1997, CHIP is Title XXI of the Social Security Act and is a state and federal partnership that targets uninsured children and pregnant women in families with incomes too high to qualify for most state Medicaid programs, but often too low to afford private coverage. Within Federal guidelines, each State determines the design of its individual CHIP program, including eligibility parameters, benefit packages, payment levels for coverage, and administrative procedures.
Families who earn too much to qualify for Medicaid may be able to qualify for CHIP.
Families that do not currently have health insurance are likely to be eligible, even if you are working. The states have different eligibility rules, but in most states, uninsured children under the age of 19, whose families earn up to $44,100 a year (for a family of four) are eligible.”
Prayers lifted.
Praying for Crystal.
