I'm so sorry you are feeling so badly. Last year I had to transcribe a how-to book by a rich guy about how to get the best health care from the system and avoid wait times or poor care. Here is what I suggest - find someone you know personally - like someone's dad or relative who is a doctor or nurse and find out where they suggest to go, the best hospital for chest/heart/lung things. Try to find a specialist or someone who can advocate for you or who knows the system better than you. Walk-ins or busy clinics fuck up so much because they don't know your history and see too many patients.

And let me know if you need anything else, cause i'm not far away and can bring things over like soup or my roomie's tranq stash:)
