I am a kidney donor and I received nothing but the feeling that I had helped someone have a better life. I have never heard that it is legal to sell a kidney. The one you donate to normally their insurance pays all medical bills for you. As how you will suffer from only having one I couldn't take morphine so I basicallly had tylenol. The joy of doing this far out way the suffering you do.  I would up and about within 2 weeks. My husband just informed me that in Indonesian countries he thinks allows selling of organs and he think it is for about $100,000. But I wouldn't consider such an offer. If you give to get something out of it. Think twice, you save a life and for that you may have 3 or 4 days of discomfort.

Ultrasounds are very expensive.  You could pay anywhere between $500 and $3,000 depending on where you go.  I would call around to imaging centers and diagnostic places in your area and ask.  Also, ask them if you can get an income-based reduced price or if you can get on a payment plan.

It depends on which country you at if Australia I tell you study a doctor, my J.P. he has not less then 70 patients a day if every patients is say average 50 dollars then you have 3500 Dollars every day and so on, that's if you want a shedload of cash in a legal way :)\nWhen I think the way you thinking now I always have to remember my family doctor and remember that's I'm definitely in the wrong industry. :P

in the us of a, and any other western civilized country, it is illegal to sell or purchase any type of organs. when selling it illegaly, which i would not recommend at all, you will not get the money you need anyway, because the people conducting the surgeries are the one's who make the buck. not you.\nan other problem will be, that you have just one kidney left, that can cause trouble too, because now, one organ has to do the work of 2. most of the time it does work, but it's not guranteed. when donating a kidney once you are still alive, you have to be adonor doing it WITHOUT any money background. after your death, over 50 organ/organ parts can be used to help the same amount of people, but your family will not receive any money either . thats why this is called 'organ donation'. \nplease do not consider that as an option. good luck with solving your problems in a different way, i dont think selling your organs will help you and your problems on the long run.\n\ngood luck

find the kidney and retrieve it.  If kidney was already in another person, i would let them keep it.

It varies case-to-case.  It depends on the venue, your medical history, your age/height/weight, your doctor reports, the actual amount of impairment it causes, etc.\nI have seen them as low as $2500 and as high as $100,000.\nAnd even then, every case is different.

It depends where you live and who is doing the procedure. If it is in a hospital you are looking at an average of around $1600-$3000 for the procedure and then you have to factor in anesthesia and lab. If you do not have insurance, your state should have an indigent care program. You may also want to see if you qualify for Medicaid in your state, and you can do that at your local Social Services office, or check your state online. Make sure you need the procedure before you have it done, though.

Well, I'm a firm believer in sharing, so, I would put $1k toward helping someone. I would spend the rest on my personal medical needs.

Usually this is paid for by the NHS in the UK but I think it's about £500.00 to £700.00 if you went privately.
