Re: Pretty Whiney Warning. Sick, doctor visit, money and meds ;)

[Guest guest]

I really wish there was a legal medication exchange. I try many meds and side

effects make me have to stop. Same for my kids. I have a ton of Wellbutrin,

Concerta, strattera, and goodness knows what else that I'm supposed to throw

away. Makes me upset!

Then the pharmacy, $120 and I didn't even FILL everything- and my Antibiotics

were given to me, thank you Lord, as samples, all 10. Those UTA blue

capsules...40 were $140. I kind of decided to fill 12 of them ($44), 3 days

worth.

But I needed that money so bad. I am never gonna get the money KEPT and saved to

file bankruptcy. I keep getting served on these bills and I am so scared they'll

garnish us before the hospital ever gets around to paying my judgment.

Always ask for samples or to set aside some for you when the drug rep comes.

This will assist and call 211 which is a National Support number and they will

have listings of organizations that assist with prescriptions and other things

you need.

Good Luck

Thanks Bennie

I am on all generics (which is why I was THRILLED to hear about Wellbutrin

having one now), but this illness threw me for a loop. I had no idea it would be

so much- I don't think he really thought about it either. For example, he gave

me the Levaquin as samples.

My dr is real good about keeping in mind I'm uninsured when prescribing. That's

why with those UTA pills I was like WAHHHH? LOL.

Anyway, I ended up sicker and in the er yesterday-that bill will suck, but they

gave me this form to fill out to see if I can get the bill knocked down. It says

it checks my credit. If it goes by THAT, I'm not even gonna send it in, lol.

Whew mine has taken a massive beat down since I fell! LOL oh well you can only

laugh.

Thanks for listening to me.

Anytime, I have had a bad pain week also and need to vent also. I hope you get

assistance. When they say you check your credit, it could work to help you as if

they see you are having financial difficulties, it will help you out. Good Luck
