I've talked to Medicare, and I'm just stuck until end of year w/Kaiser who I don't trust, have changed docs there 4 times, I give up, they're terrible, inept and the worst insured organization. I'm stuck with Calif's "Health Care Advantage" plan until end of Dec. then I will switch to Blue Cross or some other non-HBO plan (PPO is what I need). Currently only a chiropractor is providing a tiny bit of relief with this terrible low-back, damaged ankle, flat-feet problem, I've tried "everything" to be able to walk..only thing that relieves me (besides pain-patches etc.) is this pelvic belt. What do I do? I'm stuck for 6 mos. without real health care because of my mistake in signing up for Kaiser, out there they're making terrible mistakes, there's more but this is my problem: no insurance (it's HBO Kaiser) and bad-back at 76, can barely walk, I'm healthy (I use herbs, good diet, have no diabetes etc.) but with a heart w/congenital problem, I NEED to WALK....please advise, thank-you.
