Need help paying multiple medical bills

Hi, my name is Lisa, I am a single, hard working, independent woman working 2 jobs and just trying to live a healthy and happy life day by day. On September 30th 2022, I went to have a yearly exam and found out that I had 6 polyps and a 5cm tumor growing inside of me. The 6 polyps were removed immediately and checked for cancer, they came back negative. My doctor was very concerned about the tumor and told me that it could be cancer. On November 22nd 2022 (My Daughters 24th Birthday) I was scheduled for surgery. My doctor told me that he was going to do an ultrasound on the tumor first to see if it was cancer. He told me that if it wasn't cancer he would remove it that day. If it was cancer I would have to start chemo and radiation treatments immediately. I woke up after the procedure and was told by the nurse that it wasn't cancer, but I will have to reschedule another day for the surgery. One month later, my surgery was postponed again because I contracted Covid while being in the hospital. Finally on December 22nd after recovering from Covid, I had the surgery to remove the 6cm tumor (the tumor already grew another centimeter since September 30th). I woke up from the surgery and the doctor said, I am so sorry but I think it is cancer. It will be sent to the lab and we should know in a week. My daughter was in the hospital room with me. I looked at her and tears rolled down her face. I hate to see My Daughter cry, it kills me! My doctor called me a week later, while I was at work and said the tumor was tested and it is cancer. I screamed and cried and started thinking "Oh my god, now I have cancer in my blood stream! My whole body could be full of cancer! How could he do this to me!" Because of his carelessness I had to schedule a CT Scan which was on January 27th (My 60th Birthday) to double check the area where the cancer was removed. I had to wait another week for the results. During that time, I started experiencing severe pain in my left side. At first I thought it was kidney stones, then I thought it was sciatica. I told my doctor and he told me to make an appointment with my gynecologist because he could see something in my uterus after reviewing my CT Scan results. I went to my gynecologist and she said that I needed to get an ultrasound to see where the pain is coming from. I had an ultrasound on February 14th (Valentines Day) My gynecologist found 2 fibroids in my uterus and said that they are "probably" the cause of my pain. She said that there really isn't any thing that you can do about fibroids. She prescribed some pain killers to take when needed. On February 28th I had an endoscopy and a biopsy on the area where the 6cm cancerous tumor was removed. I told my doctor to please check the area where this pain is coming from to see what's causing it. My doctor told me that during the endoscopy he noticed irritation in my esophagus, so he also did a biopsy there. The results show that the cancer is gone, but I have a hiatal hernia in my stomach and that is what is causing the pain. There isn't anything that they can do about hiatal hernias unless they get severe. I just have to be careful and take pain killers to relieve the pain. Now, I will need to have exams every six months to make sure the cancer doesn't come back. I just had to have 3 more procedures in May and June which raised the amount of my medical debt. Since this all began back in September 2022, I have accumulated over $9000.00 in medical bills. Unfortunately, I don't have any family members to ask for help. All I have is my 2 children and they are already helping me as much as they can. That is why I am turning to you, "My Friends". If any of you can help me in some way or just share this information, it would greatly be appreciated. I need all the help I can get. I am not one that normally asks for help from people, but this is just too much for me to handle. I have been on the phone with all of the doctors, the doctors offices, the hospital, the anesthesiologist and the medical labs to try and get my bills lowered and set up payment plans. It is all very overwhelming and upsetting and putting me in a state of depression. Some of the bills were decreased, but I still owe thousands of dollars and it is going to take years to pay them.

I am usually not a "taker" I am a "giver" If someone I know needs help, I am right there doing whatever possible to help them. This time, I am the one that needs your help.

Thank You Very Much for reading my story and helping me if you choose to. I Appreciate You!!!!
