I had another life-threatening heart/lung episode today.
I'm not sure how much of it had to do with my cutting my heart meds back to once a day while appealing the increased price by my health insurance from $120 for 60 pills to $1k for 60 pills.
We had to call 9/11.
Scary.

I couldn't afford to go to the hospital--when you call 9/11 the city charges you $1,200 for the trip to nearest hospital.
They only accept cash.
The EMTs checked me out, told me to take the heart meds the way they were prescribed, established I wasn't in VFib, just SVT AFib.

So all day, instead of doing work that needs to be done, I have been trying to get my heart rate under 140, which given my lung meds increase my heart rate, has been more work: breathing exercises my PT taught me, single nostril breathing @HillaryClinton taught me (try it).

Hours of my work day and my very limited energy have been spent fighting with my health insurance company about my coverage.
As of January, my freaking premium now costs $1,978.10 PER MONTH.
This is what Trump did to sick people & everyone applauded last night at the #SOTU

I have no idea who has this kind of money but it's more than I make.
The sicker you are, the more expensive your plan.And there's no option because the #GOP allowed health insurance companies (who just got a huge tax cut) to charge whatever they want for coverage.

So The Wife, who is the same age as I am and who has the exact same plan, pays $239.00 a month for hers.
This is America right now for sick people. I would qualify for #Medicaid expansion if I lived in a different state, but I do not.
This is madness. Just madness.

Traditionally Indians consume aged rice; which has low GI as compared to the new one. If you consuming new rice grain; just roast it a bit before cooking. It makes it easy to digest says #Ayurveda. The process also helps reducing the GI.
