I currently have no insurance and have a constant shooting pain on my left side behind my ribs. Every time I move my arms up and down I hear something moving in my throat and it’s causing shooting pain in many different spots in my abdomen. Last time I went 3 months ago I wasn’t in chronic pain so they sent me home saying it wasn’t an emergency. Since then the pain has quadrupled and is constant. I’m worried that if I go again they will send me home and it will be a waste of time and I’m out 300 dollars for the so called diagnostic.
What are somethings that I can say that forces them to treat me/ look into what my issues are.
I do not want to incur some massive hospital bill but now I feel as though this could mean life or death I’m 23/m so my constant pain is not normal.
The only way I can make the constant pain in my ribs go away is by cracking my back but then it comes back 20 minutes later.
Do these problems seem like I should go to the ER? Mainly I want a CAT scan done what do I have to say is hurting to get them to admit me? I feel because I don’t have insurance they’re going to be on the ultra defensive in terms of helping me so I need to say the right stuff because last time months ago was fruitless.
Thank you for your help so much…

if you go to the ER and describe it as “chest pain” they usually get you in pretty quick

your variety of aches and pains are not life threatening, your best bet would be to see a doctor ( alot cheaper) and have him do some diagnostics to see if he can isolate your issues.
