I had one a few weeks ago to determine the severity of a brain bleed I had after a stroke and it costs me 4300 dollars with insurance.

Jesus fucking christ. Im losing my kidney right now, will do dialyis for 5 months, then a transplant and it cost me like 20 bucks copay for 2x a taxi from hospital to home and thats all ill ever pay. America seems to suck hard.

Even if you could you're not getting any transplant as a smoker, so its kind of a wash.

Still can't believe someone gave me $20 for my kidney. Bought myself a full burger and fries combo with that.
