I am having trouble swallowing and also sleeping now because I'm afraid my throat will get worse. I want to go to the emergency room tomorrow morning as soon as I wake up but I don't have medical insurance. I have tried to apply for MediCal twice (Medicare in california) but they have denied me both times but won't tell me why. I don't make hardly any money at all and definitely in the income range to qualify for medicare. Anyways, I'm basically going to the emergency room tomorrow without insurance, something I absolutely hate to do but the only other choice is to wait it out and hope it's not serious which I don't feel comfortable doing. It started yesterday morning and has gotten worse.
I just looked at my throat with a flash light and noticed small red bumps on the back of my throat so I feel a little relieved and not quite as scared it will close up. I think I have a slight fever as well but can't really tell because I dont have a thermometer.
