    I usually drive myself to the hospital

    Why are you going to the hospital so much and why are you able to drive? If I go to the hospital it is because things went so bad I can’t drive.

      I have only been maybe 3 times. Driving myself 2 of 3 times qualifies as “usually”. as to why, ambulances are like $3k per trip and I have an inhuman pain tolerance. A 6.5mm kidney stone or a hole from a 16penny nail that through and throughed my foot, if I am conscious, i am not spending $3k on a 30 minute glorified cab ride.
