Hi guys,just thought I"d put my two cents worth in. Two years ago I had a huge cist in my right armpit and it was being agrivated by the heat, so I went to Sau Paulo hospital on the recomendation of a friend. The Doctor took me to the treatment room gave me locals around the cist, he cut it out and cleaned it and then stiched it up and covered it with gause. Total time from start to finish 45mins, Total cost including meds for one week Bht1,300. In oz it would have cost me $50 for a referal from my family Doc and at least 6 Months wait time for a specialist. The cost would have been around $500. I think that puts it in purspective dont you.
