I realize that some of you might say in quotes, "how bad can this be"? So I'm gonna give you my personal example of what has happened and therefore it is not a guess or a theory. Recently I had a problem with my left shoulder. I won't get into the details of how it happened, but I had a problem where I could not lift it all of a sudden from the point of the elbow being level with the shoulder socket. Above that level, too much pain. So I went to the hospital locally and they did an X ray. That was not a problem. And they saw it and said we we don't see anything wrong with it. Thankfully, after I left the hospital about a day later, still in pain, I lifted my arm up just to stretch it and I heard a very loud pop. I don't know exactly what it was. All I know is I heard it, and the next thing I know, I can lift my arm up with a little bit of pain above my shoulder, but whatever the original problem was, seems to have adjusted itself so that it's starting to heal. So I went back to the doctor and asked, what's going on? Am I gonna be able to recover from this? The doctor said we need to get you an MRI. In German that's MRT. it was not an emergency MRT, but it definitely needed it. So I made an appointment. But the appointment when I made the phone call in January could only be set for April. So that basically means that for three and a half to four months, there is no possibility of getting an MRI. I then called the hospital, not the private clinic, and the hospital just emailed me back finally a response that took four weeks. Not an immediate response of but three days or a week, four weeks, one month to get a response. I tried to call, just for those of you who would think, you know, calling would be direct. Yes, and I did try calling four times within a matter of four or five days. Every single time there was never an answer it went to voicemail. And then I finally got the response four weeks later and it said we don't have anything available until June for non-emergency MRI. just before this I went into the hospital because I thought I had a problem with my heart rhythm. And when I went there they said, Yeah, there's something funny, but it's not serious. We cannot admit you. We don't have the facilities to admit you. We currently can only take in serious cardiac cases. Now keep in mind, if you're in a serious situation life threatening, they can help you. But the ability to give you care where you keep things your body safe is really been seriously reduced in Germany, all over the country, unfortunately. And the question is are the politicians trying to resolve this because it based on money. That's always the bottom line is money. And this situation has been ongoing for more than a year. And the results from the politicians is zero. Now keep in mind I still love Germany. I think it's a beautiful country. But the people who are responsible for making the laws and the financial decisions are really doing a terrible job, and it's even questionable as to whether or not there is some serious lack of judgment, or worse, the politicians are doing something wrong intentionally. So back to the medical system. Yes, the medical system is in a form of degradation. It is losing its ability to take care of the people. The hospitals are seriously short staffed on nurses, specialists, doctors of all kinds. Now, yes, this is a complaint, but it is not me saying I hate this, I can't believe it's happening. This is me saying people need to know that if they want to move to Germany, be prepared for the fact that at this time Germany is in a very difficult position. But that does not mean that things will not improve. It means that things will improve, but it is going to take a lot of time because Germany is not known for doing things expeditiously. Once again, thanks for reading and if I do get a lot of readers on these topics I will try to implement some share buttons if you think you want to share the story with somebody else.
