(29,787 posts)People desperately need Medicaid and it was worse during the Pandemic. I felt like I was helping out.
When I worked in a state hospital I was a case manager. We didn't have enough staff on the floor so I was pulled out of my office "temporarily". I worked double shifts 6 days a week for 18 months and was still expected to complete my other paperwork on my one day off. I was in direct exposure since they always stuck me on covid halls. I look back now and realize that I probably had cancer the whole time and didn't know it. I just thought the weakness and back pain were from lack of sleep and unassisted lifting since no one was around to help. I thought the bloating was from lots of fast food because I didn't have time to cook and ate in my car while traveling to work.
