yes, especially when I was still working....

I made too much to qualify for gov't aid (Medicaid) and didn't have medical insurance coverage.

my "MISTAKE" was to get Optic Neuritis (and have it in my medical record) just BEFORE I got divorced...

MS turned out to be an "automatic decline" when I tried to get my own insurance.

there are private programs to assist with the DMD costs, ask your doctor, or somebody here probably knows what's available in your area.

that's how I paid for my Betaseron.

and good luck, Volada!
