18 living on my own and no medical insurance...?
I've been looking at every medical website I can think of and I can't integer out whats wrong with me. I have a confusion, headace, sore throat, and infection in both my eyes it seems, and small itchy bumps underneath my skin all over my arms/neck/legs. If I absolutely enjoy to go to the hospital I will. But the bill would be on me. I highly doubt my parents would aid. I just recently moved here to Cali so I don't hold a job atm and I haven't started college yet. So I become conscious how important medical insurance is and I would have it. But I get unlucky and got sick before I get the chance. So I'm just trying to desire if I should just go to the hospital and slowly take-home pay the bill whenever I can or if its not that serious. I'm mostly worried about having that bill when I'm trying to carry my student loans. I'm not sure if it would keep me from doing so. Any help at adjectives would be greatly appreciated.

Are you sure you aren't on your parents insurance? If you are going to college, I bet you are. Students can stay on their parents insurance until they are 21--as long as they stay contained by school. You better talk to your parents.
And don't be in motion to the hospital. That would be expensive because it's NOT an emergency. You find an urgent/immediate care center that will cost you MUCH less. But chitchat to your parents first. I bet you DO have insurance.
go to a clinic, there cheap or free, depends on how much you net, you make nothing so probaly almost free. also if you make a contribution me your zip code city and state, well you said cali, i could back you find one. just e-mail me at johns_girl_trin(a)yahoo.com

If yes, then the treatment is a bottle of lotion which is available over-the-counter ($5 or so) from any pharmacy/drug store.
If no, call around & find yourself a free clinic (Planned Parenthood might hold a list). Good luck!
One thing to consider is that it would cost significantly smaller amount to go to an urgent care center, a walk-in clinic, than to stir to the hospital. Plus, ER personnel often get irritated when inhabitants use the ER for something that's not truly an emergency. Depending on your financial situation, you may even be able to find a free clinic. If you call the hospital, they might be capable of give you the names of some clinics. Good luck.
