I think she handled this very badly. Perhaps she was greedy too because she should have offered you one treatment to try if you've never had it before. Once you've had your treatment then she should have offered you a course of treatment (which is usually six treatments) with a bit of price reduction if you pay up front for the whole block of treatments. But she still should have offered you the chance to spread the costs to suit your wallet. These alternative therapies do work and they are worth the money, however, a lot depends on the therapist. Usually the pushy ones or those that can't handle the sale of the treatment are not very good. Find one that is confident you'll be back for more treatment, because they are the good ones! And £35 for a session is about the correct price but you should be able to get a discount if you buy more sessions in one go.

I was having congestion problems really bad, runny nose, weak, hard to breathe, and it was the week before Christmas.  I knew if I waited to see if I would get better I would be in trouble, because most of the family doctors would be on vacation.  Ha, they all were anyway.  And I ended up at an emergency clinic.\n\nI didn't know it, but I had pneumonia.  I'm asthmatic, anyway, and know how to breathe when my lungs tighten.  So I was reading, waiting for my turn, and suddenly I realized I couldn't breathe at all.  Not an asthmatic attack, just no air coming in.\n\nI walked up to the receptionist.  I told her I couldn't breathe, passed out, and on the way down I heard some jerk on the list before me with a twisted ankle belly aching, "What some people won't try to get ahead of someone else."\n\nThe receptionist just stood there, a nurse came out to see what caused the commotion, ran and came back with a doctor.  He straightened me on the floor and the nurse came back with an oxygen tube.  The receptionist was still standing there, holding her PEOPLE magazine, and the doctor screamed at her to call an ambulance, they didn't have the equipment to save me.  And she stood there.  He told her again to call an ambulance, and she walked away toward the phone, no urgency at all, and it was then, when I was angry with her, that I realized I was watching all this from outside my body.  I was standing at my own head watching the doctor trying to resuscitate me and the nurse was very urgent, and starting to cry.\n\nThen I was sucked into this blue light.  I couldn't see anything anymore, but I could hear voices.  Someone I understood to be my guardian said I was in holding, that I could either go with him, or go back.  I figured I was already dead, anyway, and thought I would just go, but he asked me what would happen to my dog if I went.\n\nI didn't live with my parents, I rented a house.  But even though Trinket was in my will and I had a guardian for her, my parents had told me if anything happened to me, she was going to the pound, that they wouldn't even take her to a humane society.  I had rescued Trinket from a shelter's death row, she was a senior canine, and the thought of her going in the animal control truck to be killed, and her knowing where she was going when she was within earshot of the pound was enough to bring me back into my body.\n\nI still couldn't breathe, but now I fought for the oxygen, and I finally managed a sip from the tube.  I was seeing the doctor from my own eyes again.\n\nHe later told me I was his Christmas miracle, that my skin had turned bluer than my eyes, that if my heart hadn't been strong, I would have died.

If you like to try reflexology, this is a good time/place to try. Go across the covered overhead bridge and get into Roxy Square II (you have to go through Roxy Square 1). It's on the 2nd level - called Ichiban. It's done \nby a partially blind team. It's really good. Ask for the foot and head and shoulders massage ($30). Or you can try a foot reflexology massage at People's Park Centre in Chinatown. Most of the shops are on the 3rd floor. My regular "physician" there is Acupuncture and Chinese Medical Services at #03-66. They charge about $20 for 45 minutes of foot, hand and shoulders massage. They speak good English too.

i had some real nice work done in south east asia. fillings extractions, root canal, post and cap. all very .. i mean VERY cheap...of coures there was no anesthetic and their offices were as clean as a barn...but the work was great...and fast. i'll never go to an american dentist again! ok i didnt have all this done at once but all together [ 2 different dentist]about 40 dollars us  and one time i got ripped off , it should have been less... this is all true but seriously you can get good safe western style work done in a big city clinic set up for foreigners for about 1/4 of western prices. but ive been happy w/ the back alley work.

Sounds to me like a Doctor visit is definitely in your future, thats not normal, unless maybe you broke open a hemmoroid during a bm.... and you should still see your Doc to be on the safe side.

OH NO DO NOT GO THRU THIS EVER AGAIN, SPEAK UP AND MAKE SURE ALL STAFF IS AWARE OF WHAT HAD HAPPENED!!!! I dont know all that they did but do u have a port? If you do did they clean it. Flush it etc. very important, believe it or not, but not all nurses are all that familiar with the proper procedure some will flush a port and do it wrong!!! I BEG U TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR ASAP, We tend to just trust r nurses and drs. but really we need to be just as informed ask questions, read up on your condition and treatment, and do not accept anything but the best medical care and always SPEAK UP!! This is your life, dont be scared or shy to ask questions etc. u may seem like a pest but u will get the best care and that is all that matters.

This is a general enough question that a close family member should be able to inquire about directly to the insurance provider.  If your concern is about costs, generally speaking, Chinese hospital bills are much, much less than in the US (at least half), and the quality of care is comparable.\n\nIn less developed parts, they would be unlikely to take in foreigners, instead they would send them to a hospital in a major city.  In China only certain hospitals will admit foreigners, and these are in the more modern urban centers.

I had to have some extractions and wasn't about to pay the extra $1000 that they wanted to put me under.  They gave me a pill called Halcion to calm my nerves (unfortunately the gave me too small a dose, but if I would have had more I would have been much happier).  I had my MP3 player turned way up so that I couldn't hear and just let them do what they had to do.  You will be sore either way afterward and the next days.  Good luck.
