This Is Pathetic, But I Really Need Some Encouragement

I know this is politically explosive, but have you checked out the Obamacare website? If you sign up now, the insurance starts in January. You may even be eligible for a subsidy.

Omg! Omg! Just found out, Thanks to all of you, that the pattent in cymbalta is expiring at the end of the year and there will be generics!! $4 wal-mart here I come!!! I'm going to the free clinic on Sunday to get enough to get me through the end of the year and I don't qualify for medi-cal because I own a house but after the first of the year they drop the property restrictions so.. goodie!

Thanks.. I'm so relieved! Also I decided to wait to sign up for medi cal. They told me if anything happens I can get coverage retro active 3 months. Sigh.....

Thanks for the good news on Cymbalta.

Sometimes depending on your policy coverage and state you have something called med pay which pays for bills related to injuries as a result of a car accident. It does not cause your premiums to increase. It is worth checking out on your auto insurance card or your agent.

Contact the pharmaceutical company directly - I know they help out individuals when asked (especially for a defined period like you have).

Hi,

So glad there seems to be light on the Horizon! Hugs to you and your daughter. Everyone had such great suggestions but I want to add just two more for anyone else who may read this thread also looking for help. Needymeds is another great website that has all brand, generic assistance programs and med coupons all in one place. Also, some states have assistance programs to help families in financial need pay for cobra for a period of time. Wishing you the best!

You are not pathetic. Your situation is not pathetic. What is pathetic is that a system can exist in the western world that sees what I consider to be such a basic fundamental human right as access to medical care being denied to those who need it. A society is measured on how it responds to those most in need and I am so saddened to hear stories such as yours. But it is your society, your systems that I see as pathetic. Not you.

I am so very, very pleased that you have found an avenue for support and wish you all the best.
