Doctors and others have questioned my entitlement to Medicare just because I am under 66.

yesterday, an eye doctor asked me what I was doing on Medicare?

I again felt guilty like I was taking from the government.

I have an Axis one MI.

That also gets me. I don't want to tell doctors, esp the ones who might have attitudes that I have a MI.

Any ideas on what to say to these doctors?

I am disabled and can't work or pay for my health care.

And I don't like feeling guilty about it! Or being under someone's verbal gun about it.
