COPD does have a diaphragm/liver issue when it comes to eating, relating to bloating. A lot of people have told me i should blow all my cash and move to a high cost location with better health care services, i just dont see why. I got lucky with my house, and i wouldnt want to trade it for some high cost, super liberal area. Plus these diseases will kill you when they do, trying to suck out a few more painful years is in my eyes an atrocious idea. So you blow all your cash, but you're in chronic pain, does that somehow make you better off?
I unfortunately live in a high cost liberal area and work in health care. The system is as much about $$$ here as anywhere else. For example, a friend of mine recently went to the ER for a kidney stone. With all of the paranoid "covid" protocols from our shit-for-brains governor, he didn't even get a room. He got a wheelchair in the waiting room for 7 hours, eventually some labs and an MRI, then was sent home with a confirmed kidney stone. He was billed a little under $10,000 and he has insurance! I think he received one non-narcotic medication for pain until the stone passed but otherwise all that time & money for nothing. No one was allowed to he there with him either.
If you're going to spend top dollar in an urban area, see a naturopath. They should have an MD in conventional medicine, with an interest that drew them to natural healing. Many don't take insurance, but are less expensive in the long run and way more insightful.
