Guest guest Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Beverley I was confused about your comment of not being near any $4 prescription places. I thought you lived in or near Rathdrum where Sunny lives and would be near the Walmart in Post Falls or the one in Spokane Valley. Now, the $4 does just apply to a limited number of generics. > > > Hello, > I went to the ER today with chest > pains. I have been having them occasionally > since I was diagnosed.

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 I was talking round trip. I'm about 15 or 20 miles from Sunny and WalMart is quite a ways beyond her. It is at least 35 to any of the larger towns that have a WalMart. Coeur'd'Alene is the largest in Idaho and they don't have one. There is one in Post Falls. I'm not sure but I think they are probably a similar distance from Sunny. Blanchard has nothing and Rathdrum has almost nothing. Spokane Valley is a long ways for me. When I go to Spokane I go into Washington the opposite way and go into North Spokane. I am very close to the Washington border. I'm wondering if Sunny is alright. The last I heard from her was when she posted to this board and said that she would call me. She hasn't called and since she said that she would I don't want to bother her. I think that her surgery is Thursday.

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009  BJ... generic are the only ones for $4. Or $10 for 90. If it's a 'expensive one' then it won't be generic. UNLESS you can get it in the generic form. ASK the pharmacist. They are always helpful. Generics don't count towards the donut hole because I pay for them out of pocket. I don't want what I can pay for accumulating toward the possible hole. I can put generics on the ins., just choose not too for reasons I said. MamaSher; 70, IPF 3-06, OR. NasturtiumsDon't fret about tomorrow, God is already there! Re: chest wall pain Sher, That goes to show how my mind is working lately. Or should I say not working. OD. I enjoyed the party but I did get tired. I have been taking Lyrica twice a day for at least three years for neuropathy. I call it my wonder drug. I think that just the two a day has been helping my fibro almost since I started taking it. I guess that it isn't for everyone but it works for me. It is one of those expensive ones. I don't live where I can go to those places that have the $4 prescriptions. Are you saying that they don't count toward the donut hole? Maybe it would be worth the 70 mile drive to get them.Beverley Joy, 71, IPF 1-09, Sjogren's, Fibromyalgia, diabetes, Idaho Hello, I went to the ER today with chest pains. I have been having them occasionally since I was diagnosed. Today I took 3 nitro and they didn't help. After an hour of severe pain I went to the ER. It wasn't my heart. The doctor pressed on my upper chest and I was really sore from one shoulder to the other. I guess that it was chest wall pain possibly from the PF. Have any of you had this and do you know what causes it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Mine are all generic except the Lyrica. If I could just get moved I would be close to most of the large stores. I think that Walgreen's and some of the others have them for $4 but I don't drive far enough to get them here. If I go that far I have to get someone to drive me. It causes me too much pain.I had to pay for the Lyrica to get my deductible paid. It was over $300. I can't afford much of that. I just checked the houses for sale around here and he hasn't lowered the price online. I'm sure that he hasn't changed the flyers either. I hope that that means that he has a possible buyer and not that he just isn't doing his job.Beverley Joy, 71, IPF 1-09, Sjogren's, Fibromyalgia, diabetes, Idaho Hello, I went to the ER today with chest pains.
