Unbelievable.. can't believe what you guys pay across the border.

Interesting to see your bike insurance is way less yet human care costs BIG $$

I'm paying $65 Canadian for medical a month biotching cause I don't have a doctor and have to sit for 3 hours min at hospital to get help. My medical covers the visit, I won't complain anymore.

Back on topic, safety glasses for sure. Something you guys brought up a while back in reading, is the "cheap" riding goggles/glasses. Can't believe I was such an idiot all these years with no clue if my lenses were shatter proof.

 

Unfortunately it's already a done deal!

 

Interesting comment! You might want to add that when urgency is of the utmost a lot of Canadians FLOCK across the border to get IMMEDIATE medical attention, or for that matter when the latest most advanced care is needed the US is still cutting edge! Yeah, we have our problems but socializing medicine isn't one of them! (at least not yet)

 

It's hard to understand why some people can't keep the political bullsh#t out of the bullsh#t forum.

 

ah.. us Canadian's when we git tired of waitin.. we get out the black electrician tape and mud plasters

It is sad the wait as you say here, cancer is the tell all of how many cross the border for help

 

I've used strong magnets before to remove magnetic particles from my eyes.

 

Heh...I've stitched up several people & a few dogs over the years.

 

I've had the eye doctor use the equivalent of a dentists drill to remove a shaving from my eye (THAT was fun to watch!) I be lookin at some prescription goggles.

 

Eye protection for sure. Did the metal in the eye years ago and it wasn't fun. My RX Wileys are a must. Also don't forget a good Welding helmet to protect from burn, Plasma Cutting also.

My OL is in the Vet business and we do carry a suture kit on the bike, along with other medical goodies. If she can sew up a dog, she can sew up a person if the need arises!

 

He was grinding down the scar tissue that had formed a slight mound around the the metal splinter and the rust ring to keep you vision clear .

Don't ask how l learned all that .
