I'm upwards of $6000K as of now. My monthly totals average about $400 / month in meds / supplements / follow up dr visits.
The 3 months that I was "undiagnosed" were expensive with numerous tests. I met all of my in network and out of network deductibles.
I work full time.

I haven't added it up, but I would guess tens of thousands. I recently did see our medical budget should be $2,000 per month for supps, trips, doctors, etc.
We've been doing this for almost 3 years.
My husband has a good job and isn't sick. Most of this money is for our daughter's medical care, but some of it is mine.

Probably half a million was spent on UNDIAGNOSED Lyme. That's why I say it is a lot cheaper to get recognized in the first place, including for insurance companies.

I'm in the neighborhood of about $125,000++ and counting. Beyond frustrated. Still not well. Wish I could get that money back and have a "do-over". So much wasted money on useless doctors.....

Probably a bit more than 100,000 now. It's been 4 years. We probably spend more than 25,000 a year.
