Today, we are getting a little raw, real and a little controversial. It's eye-opening and lengthy.
You're probably here because you are trying anything and everything you can to help your
Gastroparesis, right?
You've done all of the
tests
medications
diets from doctors
binging and starving
surgeries
all of the random suggestions from family & friends
& so much more. And none of those ways have done much for you.
So, you just think, nothing will help, right? I give up. I'm doomed to live like this.
Why would working with someone else even be worth it? And you're probably thinking, I can't afford to try something else.
Sure, insurance might have helped cover a lot of that stuff before, but here we are, still looking for another way.
The Cost of Not Trying
Well, the cost to not try another way is MUCH more expensive.
I got curious on what the cost is over 1 year and then over 50 years of doing all the things currently recommended for Gastroparesis and WHOA.
I. Am. Shook.
I calculated the average cost of:
medications
procedures
tests
doctors visits
fad diets tried
prescribed protein drinks
supplements that didn't work
wasted food
possible depression/anxiety medications
work missed/out of work
a few nights stay in the hospital
ER visits
And in 1 year, you could spend around
$104,292!!!!!!!
For 50 years of all of these things, plus including any of the risky surgeries, you could spend around
$5.35 MILLION dollars.
For reference, I researched average cost of these things & where I could consider insurance coverage, I did. However, some things I couldn't find that info on. And of course, not everyone will try or need all of those things, but the number only changes slightly.
And none of those costs included
missed family/friend time
emotional distress
the countless years you waste trying other things and staying in the same place
It makes me sick thinking of how much money my parents and I spent trying many of these options. And all of that got me nowhere.
How does that make you feel? How does knowing the possibility of money totally wasted to be in the same spot a year or 50 years from now feel? Not only money, but your mental, physical and emotional health?
It makes me feel sick for you. There's nothing I would want less for you.
It wasn't until I invested in juicing, nutritional therapy and trying the methods I did that I saw any progress and stopped wasting money on things that didn't work and made me worse.
Then again, it all comes down to which path feels right for you.
If you are someone who wants to continue with the conventional medical methods, that’s totally cool.
But, if you are someone who is sick of wasting time, money and getting nowhere, then you’re in the right place.
