Almost every day we're at the hospital

Yes. That's correct, almost every day we're at the hospital. Why? My wife needs to have it. Early August, we started to go to the hospital for her abdominal issues. The doctor requested to have a CT scan in her abdominal part. Prior to the CT scan, she need to have creatinine, and other laboratory tests. Then after a week, the CT scan. The result for the CT scan, not yet immediately released, so we only continue her medicines. Then after a month of continuous medicines, her abdominal issues maybe cured so, we stop to see doctor's appointment. However, on the last week of September, she suffers another pain. This time breathing issues (FYI: she's not a smoker, neither any member of the family, although, I smoke before and stop). We consulted to the doctor again on the first week of October. Our doctor is a cardiologist, and he requested for an X-ray. And after releasing the result of the x-ray, he recommended to consult with Pulmonologist. Then few days after, with the same hospital, we consulted the Pulmonologist, although, clinically, seeing the x-ray result, the Pulmonologist, need to check more details on her lungs, he requested for another CT scan, this time for Chest Contrast. Same process, before CT scan, needs to have creatinine and other laboratory tests. After the results, immediately the next day, CT scan has been done. Then, after a day which is earlier this afternoon, we did a follow up appointment with the Pulmonologist, then, he provided two options, 2 months of medicine treatment or biopsy which cost a lot and he mentioned the amount already. And we can't afford that. We choose the 2 months treatment first. Actually, the Pulmonologist mentioned, the medicine treatment is not literally, 2 months. That's only for phase 1. The second phase is 4 months which is more types of medicines. So, technically, 6 months. No idea, how to overcome.
