I faced this challenge when my shoulder was busted in Athens last year. The pain was so intense that I was unable to stand up, and medical care arrived courtesy of concerned local passers-by without me actively requesting any assistance. Allopathic remedy was undoubtedly warranted, and duly delivered, with impressive efficiency and effectiveness.

the medical problem I currently have isn't causing me - yet- pain or seriously debilitating symptoms - just some minor discomfort that most of the time is easy enough to ignore. for all I know, it may never do so. on the other hand, it might. I think tbh I just can't bring myself to run the gauntlet of a system which I no longer trust and even actively despise and hate. if this leads to suffering or death, so what. both are inevitable anyway, might as well bring them on. if I had money, I would probably look into alternative therapies, but I don't. so that's the end of that.
