The best advice I would give to anyone who is ill, stay home until you are short of breath and call the ambulance.

Yup. We're sucking up another $18k in medical bills from a couple seizures my wife had on Feb 23. 911/ambulance/ER/ICU/2 x CT scan/1 x MRI/EEG/EKG. Diagnosed epileptic. New house policy...no 911. Wait out the seizure. Notify her GP. That assumes normal blood glucose and low ketones, otherwise assume DKA and off to the ER.

“$18k in medical bills”

You’d think the hospitals had the money to buy the PPE for their employees.

They must have used the money for something else.

You do have enough anticonvulsant for a few weeks? If not you might be able to call her MD and get a Rx. And there might even be a cab driver still who would bring it to y our house. Douse the package in hand sanitizer or cheap bourbon.
