I was misdiagnosed twice and they almost killed me. All I needed for them to, I could have still had my job, have everything going for me, but all I needed was a simple thing. I just needed to go into an MRI machine. Not a CAT scan, but the MRI, but that one was so expensive that if they did, I would have had this microsurgery that I would have had this thing removed that was resting on a nerve in my lower spine and my back. I would have been probably back to work the next week, but them not letting me have that surgery almost took my life. Finally, my legs were going numb, and then they said, oh, we'd better get the surgery or you're going to have to have a colostomy bag. And they thought about the money for that. I said, okay, we'll get you the surgery. We'll get you out of all that pain and get you back on your feet. But by then it's just too late. I think it's the doctors. It's not the doctors. It's something that's going on. Probably the pharmaceutical industry is getting involved because doctors aren't making the right decisions anymore with people. The pharmaceutical industry made a fortune on me for a couple of years when I was down like that. They made a fortune. Doctors sort of have to do what they have to do now.
