My doctors insisted on an ambulance in February because I couldn’t breathe properly and they couldn’t examine me because of covid restrictions. I insisted I was fine and was *terrified* I’d be hit with a bill like this, they sent one anyway. Just to check my vitals.

the most horrifying thing was all I needed was someone to listen to my chest and the doctor’s refused… they said if you might need an x-Ray this is what they do here. You can’t just have your doctor book an appointment at the hospital to get an x-Ray the way you can in the UK...
Turned out it was spending all my time indoors with Tozi when I have a dog allergy and all I needed was a hepa filter. Two fire trucks turned up! It was SO embarrassing. 🤦♀️
It was SUCH a horrendous waste of resources thrust upon my by the doctors who refused to accept my saying it wasn’t serious.
