I ' m into my 8 th week , cramping has finally stopped and I ' m still spotting constantly but tbh still better than other methods I ' ve tried . <| sep |> My backyard mechanic replaced and painted a new bumper for me for $ 300 . It looked pretty good too . The difference is I had to go to his shop to get it done , I didn ' t meet him in a parking lot and give him money . <| sep |> the most a trip to the docs costs me is around 8 for the prescription . I came back to the US just after coming into contact with dengue fever . I ended up in the hospital for a week , with no US insurance as I had been abroad . The doctors , nurses , and staff were excellent and caring . Medication wise , I was only ever given a few basic pills , vitamin D being one . They did run several tests , and I had to stay in the medical room for seven days . To put the cost of service in perspective , when it was all said and done , after one week at the hospital , I owed the hospital the value of one basic 3 bedroom home , on 14 acre of land . And while I ' ll continue to maintain that the quality of service is very good , I don ' t have so many homes that I can trade them for a few days of medical services as payment .
