Today, I re-dislocated my arm trying to get it out of the cast it was in because I didn't want to pay the $50 dollar fee to get it taken off. FML

Today, I fell down the stairs and broke my arm. I went into hospital to get it put in a cast, but still went into school afterwards. I got written up for truancy because I didn't have a doctor's note. The cast was still on my arm. FML
Today, I finally got the cast off my leg after being unable to walk for 6 weeks, watching daytime TV or playing my husband's Xbox all day. The second the plaster came off, I tried to stand up, tripped over the doctor's foot and broke the apparently still not fully healed leg again in the same spot. FML
Today, I went to the hospital to get a cast that I have been wearing for the past three months removed from my wrist. Thanks to said cast, I couldn't have any summer fun at all. The doctor took a final X-ray and said, "Well look at that, your wrist wasn't fractured to begin with." FML
Today, I dislocated my shoulder doing a really big stretch when I woke up. After the doctor relocated it, my dad told me I still had to do my chores. No excuses. FML
Today, my doctor called and asked me when I could have my broken hand x-rayed again. I said the ER staff had told me it was a bad sprain over two weeks ago. I'm now in a full cast, and have to have my partially healed bones re-broken. There goes my summer. FML
Today, I sprained an arm muscle while pretending to lift weights. FML
Today, I came out from the E.R. with an arm cast and stitches on my head, all because a cyclist ran me over on a pedestrian walkway and got away. FML
Today, I was laying on the couch with a cast on my broken ankle. My brother thought it would be funny to shoot my cast with a high-powered pellet gun. It went straight through the cast and now I need to go back to the hospital. FML
Today, a nurse berated me for not being able to lift my leg myself so she could put a cast on. My leg is broken in two places. FML
Today, I had to cut short my New Year's resolution of going to the gym daily, when the meathead next to me dropped some heavy weights, which bounced and landed on my foot. I'm sitting at home in a cast. FML

By dislocated arm do you mean elbow maybe? I've dislocated my shoulder 7 times, it doesn't require a cast

mmm the lineup thing isn't true and America uses priority booking instead of sorting (those who pay most stay most) and the whole fact that America is over weight by like 75% isn't really saying much low food standard an overworked government a monopolized justice

This is why I love having free health care. Seriously America, don't hate. We still pay for health care, just not directly, we pay it through taxes so even though I can afford it, it helps others who can't (such as the OP). I've broken my wrists 4 times (twice per arm) and that can add up if its $50 to take a cast off (I've had 6 casts, they take them off and realize they're not fully healed so they put them back on).

@ Tarynkd: You don't know shit about free health care so shut the **** up if you have never lived in a country with free health care because you CLEARLY haven't. It's only specialized doctors who can take months to see, and that's only if they're in high demand. For example, I wanted to see a dermatologist about my acne so I was refered to a dermatologist. I then made an appointment with her and it was 6 months from when I made it. Yeah, it took awhile but it wasn't life threatning. And I think that story about your grandma was bullshit, she probably lives in the US and came to Canada for that surgery. A doctor could tell if something was SERIOUSLY wrong with her eye and schedule her for emergency surgery. My mom had a parasite in her cornea thanks to a cleaner or something for her contacts and she saw her doctor (GP, not eye doctor) and they told her to wear her glasses, gave her eyedrops, and to make an appointment with an eye doctor. She saw the eye doctor within the week. Oh and just so you know, even though we do pay through taxes, we at least don't have to worry about paying on the spot for emergency surgery. And yes, we do help pay for other people's treatments but that's because we're not selfish like you dumbass Americans who only care about themselves. You are the ONLY country HEARTLESS enough to not have free health care, and I would sure as hell not be proud of THAT your dumb ****. Shove it up your ass dickwad, I hope you need emergency surgery and can't ******* afford it, that'll teach you.
