Well, as apparently what started as a flu and without any cures became pleurisy is after one month, because of continuous lack of cures, becoming pneumonia, so finally I tried to reach out again to the ultra crappy healthcare system of where I live to try and get a doctor to my home.
The reason for not coming, for all the doctors, was that "if I had the strength to call, I also had the strength to go to the hospital" (except that going around with fever and probably pneumonia is going to make that pneumonia guaranteed).
I tried to explain that if I didn't call myself no one would call at my place, and they hung up on me. Twice.
So now I am really really lucky that my mother is coming in a couple of days to make sure that I can get medical care (and bringing a big box of antibiotics that are not used in this f%$&g country), but what if I didn't have that? Actually, what will happen WHEN (she is 73 already) she won't be there anymore?
Are lonely people left alone to die? This is so incredibly depressing
