I wish the hospital would leave voicemails when they call, so that I can call them back. I was asleep when they rang, having had a bad night.
Now I'm anxious as to why they called.

This is a picture of a text written in the notes app on an iPhone. It reads, “I’m having Crohn’s symptoms cause my pharmacy had the wrong medication name on file for the yearly prior authorization. Called places multiple times and eventually they sorted out the confusion and I can get my heavily delayed dose in the next few days. Well played, insurance! You got out of paying for one month of my medicine successfully, and I have no recourse AND some unnecessary pain. Good old American Healthcare 😒 .” The text is white over a black background.

I hate this fucking disease
