hey everyone; while it seems like 1 of 2 PCRs has come back negative, im still dealing with the unexpected financial cost of a) a confirmed exposure b) a fever ive had a few days now & c) post-vaccine immune response. (more details below) but if u cld chip in it would help A Lot!
i may have to use some of my paid sick time this week, im not sure, but i know i dont have enough hours to fully cover both shifts. so if i do have to call out, its lost wages either way 😓.
which is one part of this definitely
secondly, while waiting for results and also Being Sick (in a different way), ive had to spend a good chunk of EBT SNAP benefits on hydration, and contact minimizing food, which throws a wrench in my budget there as well. this is what stuff wld be helping me cover, tysm again
edit: i should clarify! the first test was medicaid covered, the second was self pay, but was covered already by friends, so the test expense itself is all sorted!
edit 2: need met!!! thank you
