I have been whining about this very issue for years, after being reduced to poverty. Had 9 surgeries, no health insurance due to pre exisiting conditions. Now with medicare/ dissability, left with medicaid part D which refuses to pay for many of the medications I need. Including one for RSD, which elimanitates a need for most narcotics. I went to Canada a number of years back on a protest over medical costs. I am being denied a medication to prevent esophagal cancer. I have to appeal over and over again. It is about money, not about the individual human. I do have good doctors, but most do not except medicaid, so i get suck with the bill. No answers, and I wish there were some smart people out there, to prevent people from loosing all they worked for, their whole lives. I wish I had the answers. I am somewhat bitter about the whole situation for all of us, with medical conditions that cost way more than what we can afford in several lifetimes. I will keep you and those of us in financial distress in my thoughts and prayers. ginnie The three meds. I need cost more than what I receive in a month.)
