Just so posters can compare then and now. Nine years ago I had a cysts that infected. My doc gave me anti-biotics and referred me a surgeon. The surgeon told me that it had to be lanced at the hospital.
I went to the villages hospital admitting filled out the necessary paper work. They then told me [ my] share would be $1480. I told them to forget it. Went home called the surgeon and told him what happened and said I wanted him to take care of the problem at his office and if there was any pain I just bit on a stick. He asked me to come to his office the next morning. the antibiotics did the trick and he said he really didn't have to do anything. I said cut it so it will heal faster, he did and my insurance company and me saved money
