  • I'm sorry to hear about your business Gregg, I can relate.Some years back I went to The E.R. because of extreme stomach problems. They sent me home, telling me it was a stomach virus. Come to find out, I really had a burst appendix. 9Spewing poison inside of me) I almost cashed out on that debacle. I had to stop working and since then I've never been the same! That bill you got would have made me have another heart attack. But it's good to see you are doing better man, keep rocking on Gregg!

  • @GoryStories Wow, I had no idea you went through all that! Thank God you were able to catch it in time! Jeez, that's friggin scary! ~ That bill almost DID give me a heart attack lol! : )

  • this is almost to tuff to watch the stuff you went through was killing me...

  • @Teyethegreat Trust me, it was painful going through it, but it was worth it. It saved my life : )

  • crazy more than 40 grand....... in europe it is also going that direction...but you guys are allready there. Feel sorry dude but the systems in the usa are totally screwed.

  • @thewarlord1944 Yeah, our health care system is a joke. Something drastically needs to be done. Thanks for commenting!

  • I had one night in hospital 6 years ago - got no food and I am still waiting for the scan they said I needed. No wonder it was free!

  • @MrRandomWritings lol, It's still better than paying the bill I have! : )

  • Wow, sorry to hear about all the stuff Greg, glad u are feeling better, I guessed 50, I have a friend who had quad bipass and his surgery was over 100,000 he didnt have health insurance either......... :(

  • @BookWorm1398 Health care in this country is a joke! Thank God I was able to get this done. I'm feeling absolutely great! Like a new man! Now I just have to worry about the bill

  • i was thinking 50 grand myself ,yes it is outrageous and they wonder why so many people are dying or very ill doctor bills and office visits are much to high even the medications are high ,i know a girl who has to take alot of meds and one of them are 12 hundred a month and thats only 1 of the meds .then you got the doctors complaing they dont make any money  i got 2 words BULL SHIT

  • @TheSinjingideon I agree with you 100%! I take a lot of meds too. one coats $250, another $240, and another is $180. It's crazy! And that's all per month!

  • Are you kidding???:(

  • @DylanLamuchcha I know, crazy right?! I should be able to get a lot of the bill written off. It's good to see you Dylan! : )

  • Glad you are ok. I would not like it at all. 

  • @Trythis0001 Thanks I appreciate it! Yeah, it's not a very pleasant thing to go through.

  • i am glad that you are better. but my god i never in my life see hospital bill that big.

  • @hudsonman1989 Thanks buddy! Yeah, tell me about it, I almost passed out when I got the bill!

  • I remember when I was in the hospital for a broken leg, by the time I got out of there It was at about 6,000 . When I looked at the long list of charges on the bill they had charged me 60 bucks for a lady that asked me if I needed a sponge bath I told her know but since she had the sponge and pale she could wash my foot because I could not bend the leg to wash it myself!!!!! I was even charged for an enema kit which as faR AS i KNOW WAS NOT USED ON MYSELF..

    re-god-damn-dick-u-lous !!!!!!!!!!

  • @theEviIDeathBaby I've been hearing a lot of stories like this man. I was told to ask for an itemized bill. I was also told I'd be shocked when I saw all the bogus charges on it. I should work up my own bill and send it to them just to see what they would say lol. Charge them for the loss of sleep, the uncomfortable bed, the shitty food and so on, heh heh I should charge them for my blood, or tell them I want it back! It's mine!

  • GREGG I AM SO HAPPY YOU ARE BETTER! THAT MAKES ME HAPPY... BUT BOY DOES THIS COUNTRY SUCK AS FAR AS OUR MEDICAL GOES.... ITS A SHAME... ITS JUST TO BAD WE DONT HAVE LONDONS POLICY ON MEDICAL THEN WE WOULDNT HAVE THESE PROBLEMS... THE IMP THING IS YOUR FEELING BETTER AND THATS AWESOME! A BIG HUG FOR YA SWEETY!

  • @OneBlackRose45 Hey Sandy! Thanks! I can't believe how much better I feel now! I really thought I was at the end of the road until I had this stent put in. I feel brand new lol. Seriously, I haven't felt this good in years!

  • I was wondering what had happened to you! Fifty G's? Fuck!!! I was thinking ten thousand would be reasonable... Here in Canada it would have been free.

  • @phekwig Hey Andy! Yeah, my health really went down hill. I can't believe how well I feel now that I had this done though! I feel great! I almost had to call 911 when I read the bill. And to top it off they said it had to be paid in full! This is just another reason why I should move to Canada! : )

  • @greggfla I guess you'll have to go through your collections and start to liquidate... Payable in full upon receipt is totally draconian! A hospital bill like that would just about eat up my RRSP (Registered Retirement Savings Plan)

  • @fehquig Well believe it or not, I can actually put in a plea for charity through the hospital and there's a very good chance they will write off most to all of the bill. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. The only problem with having a bill written off is it makes other peoples insurance premiums sky high.

  • @greggfla It's a lot like filing for bankruptcy so that other people's interest rates on their loans loans go up... Go for it!

  • I had that done too, you should feel better right away. Hey, if you had put "naked" in the title you would have had a gazillion views. Try that next time. *wink,wink* By the way, I had no pain at all.

  • @HoschtonBoy I felt better the same day I had it done! I'm still feeling great too, thank God! LOL, Put the word naked in the title or use a thumbnail with cleavage and it's an instant viral video!

  • You sure you ain't Gregg's younger brother?

    50 G's. Man, I was in the hospital for 21 days...and had some major surgery (intestinal) about 18 years ago, and the bill was 50 G's. Shows how med. costs have skyrocketed since then.

    Fuk. You shoulda came to da bar. Me an Trippy woulda done it for you, for 40 bucks.

  • @Clobberbob55 Skyrocket is an understatement! LOL, Ya know, I was thinking about letting you and Trippy do it, but then I'd miss that delicious hospital food I was so looking forward to!

  • Darn, that was bad, I'm glad you're fine now.

  • @oniichanrikku It was really bad, but at least it's over with now and I'm feeling great again! Thanks!

  • flaas. glad ur okay and feel normal again! I have a hahaha folder make one up and file the bill in there! b/c that shit is a laugh! it takes them forever to prep and get their shit together but a few secs to write up the bill! and everybody and their mother got their hands in ur pocket! don't worry Im placing a collection jar for me I mean you in the bar!

  • @Ravensclaws1 Thanks! : ) Yeah, I filed the bill already lol. Although I may be able to get most or even all of this bill written off! I'm going to apply for charity through the hospital. I was told that there's a really good chance of the whole thing. Tell ya what, even if they do forgive the bill, still put that jar in the bar. I think Trippy owes just about everyone 50 grand! Maybe we can get back some of our money from him! Heh heh ...

  • What an ordeal! you poor thing! my dad had that done about two years ago, sounds like the same thing he went through. Caths are the worst! I just cringe thinking about it! I guessed close, I was going to say 50K. File it away and forget about it for now, so glad you are okay!

  • @HeyThatsHolly Hey Holly! Yeah, the cath was probably the worst thing I have ever had done in a hospital. It really did hurt until they gave me better meds. I really can't believe how much better I feel now that I had this done! I haven't felt this well in years! You came really close on your guess. Someone else guessed two thousand dollars lol. There's a good chance the hospital will write off the bill! I have my fingers crossed. Hope your dad is doing well. : )

  • I can only say my friend, we must enjoy every day not truly knowing how many we have.

  • @rpVerlaine Amen buddy! I've already made some major lifestyle changes since I've been out of the hospital. Peace!

  • Hehe... you said naked...ok really I am so glad you are feeling better. My dad had stents and he said he never felt better having them. Good luck with that bill...gerr

  • @DawndeeDALLAS Naked, naked, naked lol! Thanks so much Dawn! It's true, I feel great now that I had this done! I don't even want to think about that bill for a while.

  • Hot Dam Greg !! That amount will give you a heart attack ! LOL. Hope you stay well now.

    I been out of work for the past 6 months too,and no ins.We were able to qualify at our county hosptal for a health card.It cuts about 70% off your bill.You should look in to it.Saved us about 200,000.Last year as my wife had cancer treatments.Take care. E

  • @EenterE lol, I know! I almost fell out of my chair when I got the bill! Thanks for that info, I'm going to have to check into it tomorrow. Hope your wife is doing well my friend! Thanks again!

  • man they stuck stuff in your interveenis thing, looked at your fetus, put cameras in your junk SOUNDS TO ME THEY SHOULD BE PAYING YOU $47K BUWAHAHAHA XP but in all seriousness bro, im glad ur ok and sorry to hear you lost your business D:

  • @metalvocalistwanted Rofl! You're absolutely right! I should send them MY bill! Hahaha! Thanks bro. No matter what happened, at least I'm friggin alive! Peace!

  • Holy shit, Greg. That's just over what the average American makes in A YEAR!! and they want the whole amount paid now!? Lol, that's bogus. Hope you feel better man.

  • @BreakingBayArea I know! It's crazy! I actually had to laugh when I read the entire bill was due right away lol. I'm feeling tremendously better, thanks!

  • Through the groin? I think they were greening you and they just like shaving your junk. I'm not liking this idea of keeping people awake for everything. That would cause me issues for years. Ouch, no insurance. Had to pause this to guess, $90K. $50K isn't much more than my brother had to pay to fix his broken arm. When you consider he broke both I bet you got away cheaper. This is why I tell my roommate he's an idiot thinking he can retire and drop insurance.

  • @Myk63 Dude, the nurse that shaved me was drop dead gorgeous! She was around 29 or 30. I didn't know whether to jump for joy or cry, if ya know what I mean lol! ~ I couldn't believe they were going to do this while I was awake! The morphine really helped a lot. I'm going to put a claim in for charity through the hospital. There's a good chance that they may write off the bill, believe it or not! Man, if your friend drops his medical insurance that would be a foolish thing to do!

  • Your the best Greg. 

  • @ItzEViLDeD Thanks bro, you rock buddy!

  • Love ya buddy.. get better my brother.. Crew for life man.. hope your feeling better my brother..

  • @ItzEViLDeD Thanks Gar! I'm feeling way better now. It's amazing what a difference this made in my health. I feel like I'm back to normal again!

  • I'm curious how you feel about universal health care. Here in Australia, that would have cost you $0.00. But of course we pay for it in taxes.

  • @noswonky I'm 100% for it! Always was. Most people I talk to, including myself say we wouldn't mind paying higher taxes if we could get good health care! This "great Country" I live in needs to get it's act together and do something about our failed health care system. And when I refer to "Country" I mean the idiots we have in our Government. Thanks for commenting!

  • hey fla, i was wonderin what kind of fetus was in your chest.. ha.. glad your ok brother.. i was wondering how old you were.. you got me alittle worried.. oh, and fuk the bill.. pay what ya can!!!

  • @voodoob4u LOL, the fetus has two horns and a pointed tail! I'm feeling great now that I had this done! I'm 48. Everyone keeps telling me I'm WAY too young to have this kind of heart problems. Oh well, I take each day at a time bro!

  • I am so sorry and I know about hospital bills you don't have the money to pay for. Three came in because your special and they wanted to see all your naughty bits word had got around the hospital. I so know self employed and money stops. I have been told that as long as you pay something each month regardless if it 10 bucks they have to take it. Actually my guess was $50,000. The problem is though they will add interest. I know a gentlemen similar situation and they ended up writing it off

  • @cozzyk Hi Kim! It was so weird being naked under that gown and having all those nurses around me! Not that I didn't like it though lol. ~ Yeah being self employed I never got medical insurance because I couldn't afford it on my own. I'm going to apply for charity through the hospital. I was told there's a good chance they will write off most or even all of the bill! Thank God! Good to see you! : )

  • @greggfla We have pretty much had medical thru one of the other of us for years thru jobs. But that all went south three or four years ago when hubs started his own self employed biz since layed off with the recession. Just at an age when we both desperately need it. And as you know it's not a matter of budgeting for health insurance. Health insurance if you can get it or roof over the head. You take care sweets.

  • I was in for most of a week last summer. I was poked and probed so often (for a rare blood disorder) a maybe slept an hour a day. Hospitals don't seem to value sleep. Glad you're feeling better,( so am I).

  • @Listenbuddy1 Oh man, I hear you on the sleep thing! Everyone always says when you go to the hospital, " well, at least you got some rest". Bullshyt!!! I was like you, if I said I slept a full hour a night it's an exaggeration! I was so happy to come home and sleep in my own bed and actually rest up from being IN the hospital lol! I'm feeling great now, thanks! And I'm glad to know you are too!

  • Oh my god. Good luck

  • @creamofcardstv Thank you! I'm feeling way better than I did before, that's for sure. I just have to not think about the bill and my heart should be fine lol!

  • holy shit man. you have been through alot in a couple days, its freeking me out.

    glad you feal better.

    but holy crap that bill almost gave ME a heart attack.

    small price to keep you with us i guess.

    cheers.

  • @marcelstjean Hey Marcel! Yeah man, when I got the bill I almost fell out of my chair in horror and when I read they wanted me to pay it in full I almost fell out of my chair from laughing lol! I'm feeling great now! Thanks bro!

  • Hi Greg sorry I've not been around and Sorry to hear you're going through it at the Moment Buddy Glad you are OK Buddy

  • @TUCKERZONE I haven't been around here that much myself, it's kind of hit and miss. I'm feeling a lot better now that I had this stent put in! Thanks man!

  • hang in there bro and be strong.....

  • @rpVerlaine Right on my friend, I'm doing just that! I'm feeling great now!

  • Well it's good to see you here and talking with us. I bet it's hard to decide what was more scary.. having a heart attack the procedures they had to do to treat you or the medical bill they presented you with afterwards.. but the most important thing is YOU and that you lived to tell the tale.. the money is a small thing compared to your life.. and the lifestyle changes you are going to commit to to assure you are here for many more years..to come Be well Greg..

  • @TheDuckQuacksBack You are absolutely right! The pain from the procedure, and this high doctor bill can be dealt with. I'm not going to stress over it. The most important thing is I'm alive! You're 100% right! I've already drastically changed my diet and am beginning to drop weight! Thanks my friend!

  • It seems like hell that you went through. But it is really fucking cool that you feel a hell of a lot better!! I had a cathater in my private once after a bottle of pills. When I came to and they pulled it out IT BURNED!!!!!!! No other pain like it, that I know of... Glad you're ok.

  • @yeahsee33 Hey Brian! Yeah man, it was painful to say the least! It was worth going through though to get better. I feel great now! They hit me with that valium and morphine and it took care of the pain pretty well!

  • Hey man I enjoyed watching your entire video. Glad you're okay. What I suggest is that you move up here to Canada and since I'm in university for business, we construct a business together...lol

  • @xDi3hardx15 lol well, it just so happens I love Canada! I used to vacation there every year when I was a kid. It's absolutely a beautiful Country, that's for sure! Thanks for the comment my friend!

  • I'm glad to hear you are doing good now. That must have been really scary! I'm so glad you called 911 so they could take good care of you. I can not believe that hospital bill, that really bites.

    I am sure they will work with you on payments. Ask for an itemized bill, most hospital bills have many mistakes on them.. My husband had a procedure and they coded it as an OBGYN procedure. lol We have insurance thank God, but this kind of money is just crazy! The important thing is you are better!

  • @justwant2bhappy A lot of people told me to ask for an itemized bill, and I will. It really was scary, but thank God everything went well and I'm feeling great now! I really don't even want to think about this bill, but I guess I have to. I'm applying for charity through the hospital. They will absolutely work with me on this : )

  • Hello Greg, I thought things where bad in my country, but it's amazing how fast they sended you the (high) bill! Cound't they wait a bit? The bad thing is, they can get away with it, as we all want to get better when we are ill.

    Hope your health is allright now.

    Kind regards, Ronald.

  • @musicmaniac1965 I know, thought the same thing, how could they send me the bill right after I got out that fast! I thought I was going to have a heart attack when I read it! On the up side, I am feeling much better! Thanks Ronald.

  • Omg Greg! That's enough to send you into another heart fit!! Don't they remember you had a weak and now healing poor ticker?!? How rude to send you this bill so fast!! I'm so glad you feel so good now though and are doing well....now....how do we start entering you into the lotterys? ;•) hope it's ok I say a prayer for you? I had that proceedure when I was 19, it was no joke! It was painful and scary! Big hugs for you brave friend.

  • @Ikimification Well, the main thing is I'm feeling 100% better than I did before I went in, and I'm alive lol. I'll deal with the bill somehow. There are a lot of assistance programs I can apply for that can help me. I can apply for charity through the hospital, which is what I'm doing. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

  • I had them test my heart with a catheter before and I didn't like it one bit. I felt like I was on fire. I was only in my 20's. They said mine was just fine. I was not happy to get that. I feel for you. I hope you keep on the road to recovery. It is ridicules of what hospitals and other medical fields charges a patient. That would give you a heart attack right there. Hopefully you can apply for assistant to help you pay this bill or for them to write it off.

  • @DearestBecky Thanks Becky! Yeah when I opened the bill I thought I was going to have to call 911 again lol! I'm going to apply for charity and see what happens. : )

  • going to the emergency room is what made the bill high but everyone knows that. you better get on payment plan else the hospital will turn it over to collections around 5 months then it will definitely go to the collection lawyers they will sue in court if do not show get default judgement ruin credit tack on fees interest end up in bk. people first thenthings then money

    look up burt reynolds bk he stiff everyone screw loni dicorve keep mansion like oj

  • @FEVER55555 I know, I went through this two years ago when I had a minor heart attack. I'm going to apply for charity. There's a good chance the hospital will write off most or even all of the bill! I have my fingers crossed.

  • What's worse is that the insurance companies will chew hospitals down so they only pay a fraction of what they bill... If you don't have insurance they pump up the cost and charge horrendous amounts!

  • @myoldreteacher I know it really sucks! Because of all the people like me, the doctors, hospitals and insurance company's charge high to make up for the loss. That's why insurance premiums are so flippin high. It's a shame our country can't fix this health care problem we have.

  • fla that sounds so brutal and scary!!! glad you're doing okay! thats really good that you are feeling better, that mustve been one scary thing to have done! woaaaaaah i can't beleive that they would charge nearly 50 grand! and expect it right off the bat!!! its sad that they would make that much money to help someone, greedy that is!

  • @killerdwarf7 Thanks Ravyn! Yeah, can you believe the cost! When I saw the bill I almost fell out of my chair in horror, then when I read they wanted it paid in full I almost fell out of my chair from laughing lol! I'm feeling great now! : )

  • Sonogram ya twit!!! LOL. good to see yer face man!!!! 47,000 dollars....holy shit!!!!

  • @hippy4life4a When they checked my liver they called it an ultra sound.

  • @yeahsee33 shhhhhhhh....I know, wanted to see if Gregg would catch it....shhhhhhh!!!!!

  • @yeahsee33 Yeah, that's the same principle as the echocardiogram I think.

  • @hippy4life4a Yes! sonogram! That's what they use to see a fetus. The thing they use to see your heart is an echocardiogram (I cheated and looked on my bill) I can never remember the name of that friggin thing! Yup, 47 Gs! Unbelievable! Whelp, like my Grandfather used to say, "you can't get blood from a turnip"!

  • Gregg this must have been so scary glad you are OK well apart from the ridiculous bill from the hopspital, the bill alone would bring on a heart attack. I have heard about this procedure and yikes on being with it for the whole procedure I understand that they can't put you under but whoa that must have been tough. Take Care and hope you win lotto to pay that massive bill.

  • @cheekychickenhead Hey Tam! Yeah, when I opened the bill I thought I was going to have to call 911 to take me back to the hospital! Once they properly sedated me it wasn't so bad. You would think that this "great Country" of ours would do something about it's failed health care system. Go to socialized medicine, I'd gladly pay higher taxes if it meant I could get proper health care when needed!

  • If you dont pay what can they do?

  • @biggray94 I don't know, most of the time they will just turn the bill over to a collections company and at the worst I'll have bad credit. There's a good chance they might write off some or even all of the bill! I have my fingers crossed.

  • UN FUKUN BELIEVABLE ALMOST 5O G'S...DATS BLASPHEMY BRO...DO WHAD I DO AN FUK EM. DONT PAY ID.... DA GOOD TING IS UR FEELEN FUKUN GOOD BROTHA....FUK YA...DATS GREAT MAN DAT DA FLA MAN IS UP DA PAR.... DATS WHAD DA FUK COUNTS.... GOOD NEWS MAN.... BY ANY CHANCE U HAVE ANY fukun drugs left over....dey say da hosp is good for dat shid....fukkkkk..... ha. on da serios note... dis new rulzzzzzzz....

  • @TrppyTV I know it man, our health system is totally fuked! I'm going to apply for charity through the hospital and there's a good chance that they will totally write off the bill! Dude, before I got this done, I couldn't even take a shower without having to stop half way through due to chest pain and shortness of breath! Now that I had it done I feel like superman again! I'm on a strict diet, I'm out walking and soon will be jogging and working out again. It's a great feeling bro!

  • @greggfla FUK YA MAN NOW UR A SUPERHERO....GOOD....DATS COOL MAN DAT UR RUNNEN WID WINGS AGAIN.....FUK YA FLA MAN.... AN UR RITE....OUR SYSTEM WEL....ID FUKUN SUKSSSSSSSSS... i say u run for prez fuk id... i cant cuz i gave id up....fuk

  • @TrppyTV Fuk yeah man! I'd run for president but I know I can't win against Kennedy!

  • I hate our medical system. My fiancee went in because she had abdominal pain. She didn't have health insurance, they gave her an MRI and now she owes $4000. That was a half hour in hospital.

    Your situation sucks much worse, but you can always apply to charity and see what happens. Or just don't fucking pay it.

  • @FillingtheVoidRevues I hear ya, I hate it too. You would think that living in this great Country we would be the leaders in health care, instead we're one of the worst providers. It's shameful! I'm going to apply for charity. Thanks!

  • Glad you're OK Buddy!!☺

  • @805ROADKING Thanks buddy! I'm glad too!

  • so good to see you are ok what a disgrace for the bill to be this much I used to get chest pains about 3 years ago , i read up on some stuff and i found on the net... Pink Salt from the Himalayas , I have been taking it with all my meals and use it like normal salt but unlike normal salt your body gets rid of what it dont use and since i started taking it I have never had a single chest pain and I know that some doctors prescribe it for blood pressure around the world , best wishes : ) Stevie

  • @steviejacko Hey Stevie, glad to know you're doing well and no more pains, that's awesome! I had to cut out salt completely due to my history of high blood pressure. Thanks for the comment my friend!

  • Happy you're better..but dayuuuum...how do that justify that much money to help someone?

  • @PlayingGuitarRules73 werd on day brothaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

  • wow! man, Thats really...wow , I´m speechless, wish you can get though this good, Thats a lot money, all best wishes bro! :)

  • @CannibalZombieKiller Hey thanks man! I'm feeling 100% better than I did before I had to get this done. It's amazing. As far as the bill goes, I'll do what I can do and they'll just have to accept it. Peace!

  • I am glad you are OK!!! Hospitals bills are a mother fucker! If you have to just make payments or go bankrupt no one will hate you for it!!!!!

  • @liljack8421 Thanks buddy! Yeah, I already though of some "outs" for this bill. I've been getting some good tips on how to handle this. I'm not gonna sweat it though, I'm just glad to be alive!

  • I am glad you Feeling better. Medical cost in the U.S are insane. It is worth every penny to keep your self alive !

  • @inspiretodream3 Thanks so much! I really am feeling great now! America needs to get it together and do something about this medical/insurance problem we have! And I agree, I don't care what the bill is, I'm alive! : )

  • I am glad your ok Gregg. I am sorry to hear you went through that. If I had the 47,000 I'd gladly give it to you.

  • @Graveworm187 Thanks, you rock for saying that! Actually the hospital will write off most, if not all of the bill. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

  • Glad to hear that you're Okay, But Geeez' the bill is enough to put a person in an early grave. lol.. Hope it all works out.

  • @DolittleMccoy Thanks, I really am feeling so much better now that I had this done. I've been telling everyone that when I read the bill I thought I'd have to call 911 again lol.

  • Most angeioplasti last for around 5 years you will have to go get rotorutered again so you really don't want to be pissing them off only other option is to be like Bill Clinton no meat at all he has went to battle on this issue personally I rather be gone than to have to watch what I ate all the time in fact I would probably find a way to end it where they could harvest the organs for someone that wanted to deal with this bullshit we call life.

  • @cdltpx Yeah, I hear ya. I completely changed my diet. I cut out all red meat. I'm eating skinless broiled chicken and fish. Tons of fruit and veggies. It's not going to be easy giving up my BBQ ribs, but I guess it's that or die.

  • Well, they're just gonna have to work with you on that bill! I mean, that's just nuts! Sorry to hear about what you went through, but glad you're doing much better (except for the bill ouch!)! Take care, Gregg, all best wishes my friend!

  • @theloathlydaddy Thanks Steve, I appreciate it! I thought I was gonna have to go back to the hospital when I saw this bill! Wow!

  • Sonogram and you can argue some of that bill there are way you can get them to come off of the bills if you care to pay for it. Some just send a dollar a month knowing full well they will never pay it off that way but it keeps them off their ass until you get a nice windfall and pay if off. Remember you can dispute much of that when you get that windfall don't just go in there and pay like you do at Walmart you can contact them and wheel and deal with them getting them to come off of it.

  • @cdltpx Believe it or not, sometimes the hospital will completely write off the bill. The doctors won't, but the hospital may. I'm going to look into it for sure. Thanks for the info, I appreciate it!

  • BTW glad you OK!

  • @LatigidGolana Thank you ! I am too!

  • Sonogram is what it is called. Okay man save yourself a few bucks at least, Request an Itemized bill which will show you everything they did and all the stuff you did not use that they are still charging you for. Everything in the room you stayed in will be on that list including all the stuff not used and wrapped up you will be surprised at all the shit they charged you for in that room man, seriously! we had to do that for my ex wife when she had my twins. You can fight all that crap!

  • @LatigidGolana Hey, thanks for that info, I never though of that. I'm going to contact the hospital tomorrow and ask for it. Really, thanks for letting me know about this!

  • I'm glad you're better Gregg. That bill doesn't surprise me. When James had his heart attack and bypass surgery the total bill was around 54 thousand dollars. This was 7 years ago. My Brother in law had the same surgery one year ago and his bill was 108 thousand dollars. Thank God we had insurance and only had to pay a portion of that. BIL insurance was better than ours... we paid more than he did. But yeah... it's ridiculous! Try not to stress about it. Hugs!

  • @imperceptibleme I have to admit, I almost passed out when I first saw the bill! I used to stress over something like this, but I won't allow myself to anymore. I'd end up back in the hospital lol. Being self employed I never got insurance. I just couldn't afford it. It's a shame this is happening in America.

  • So glad you're OK, Uncle Gregg! That was scarier than any horror flick for sure. And the bill is horrific! Sorry about your business. I hope things improve for you very soon. I, too, don't have any health insurance. Welcome to America! LOL Take good care!!!

  • @myp410up Scary for sure, and yes, the bill was even more horrifying! I am feeling so much better now that I had this done. It's like a night and day difference how I felt, and how I feel now. No insurance, so you know what I'm going through. Thanks my friend!

  • I am really glad you are ok, I dont want to think of medical bills after a visit, I am so grateful I live in Canada, not meant to be political but I just dont understand how you guys can get better while having to worry about the bills afterwards. Anyway, speedy recovery, love your vids.

  • @pristineview I'll tell you, I used to stress over something like this bill before. But like my grandfather used to say, "you can't get blood from a turnip". A lot of times the hospital will write off the bill when they know you have no insurance and aren't working. I have my fingers crossed!

  • thats shocking, i had the same thing done a year ago plus some.

    my total cost for my stay and op was $0.00 thats the good old free public health here in new zealand. i have family in texas who had a heart attack 2 years ago and it was cheaper to fly back here and get the free surgery then fly back... i can see why now. i guessed your bill would be $2400 lol not even close

  • @roddie52 I can't understand why we can't get our shyt together and come up with a solution to this problem! ~ Wow lol, yeah, you were a little bit off on your guess lol! Thanks for commenting, I appreciate it!

  • GreggFLA is in debt and needs a viral video. Glad you're OK dude. On s serious note, you mentioned they had to shave you down. Now if I had this was me they would not have had to shave me. This might have split your bill in half. Also you might be feeling better because you're shaved. I am fat and eat terrible. I know I'm like 5 years younger than you, but I believe the fact that I remain shaved in my groin area, keeps me from having problems with my heart. I recommend shaving daily.

  • @BuddhaCharlie Roflmao!!! Dude, you never fail to crack me up laughing! Thanks bro! lol. And you're right, I need a viral video and fast! I may have to go out and buy two kittens or adopt twin toddlers!

  • Yay! Glad you're back...and healthy..that'smost important!

  • @1dandiesmom Thank you! I'm feeling 100% better than I did before I went in! I'm glad I'm back too lol!
