Sun,
I'm going on 28 years with RSD/TOS, then another accident in 98 caused a TBI, and four discs, Sleep issues are terrible as well as headaches.
I've been on methadone about 20 years (It took 7 years for a dx). I started @ 60mg. went down to 10-15, second accident, up to 100, now about 60.
Cymbalta, diazepam, Zanaflex for sleep. And, Migraine meds.

Methadone is very inexpensive, and I wouldn't want to be without it.

You're right, the health legislation seems to have been permitted basically for big business, (which is whom our government works for) so our ins. Co's. could stick it to us a little more. I'm afraid.
Since our President has never held a job, or run a business in his life, I'm VERY afraid, but that's another subject. (Hitler gave great speeches too)...don't shoot me now!

Loretta, thanks for the suggestion of the BP machine. I think I'm going to get one. Some days I have lots of energy, but they seem to be getting farther between the older I get.

Hope I've helped, what are you taking, Sun?

Pete
