Guest guest Posted April 15, 2000 Report Share Posted April 15, 2000 Connie that sounds like something that would happen to me getting terminated on my birthday and no hope of finishing the treatment. We all have troubles don't we once the disease hits the family and the treatment and the cost or the none treatment and the cost - its crazy and the government doesn't help much at all. I am beginning to think that the governments job is only to lie about things and cover things up. People with money forget what it was like when they didn't have it much less with a disease and treatment that makes most people not have any money once the whole thing is done. If you are in remission though the whole thing is worth it and everyone should get a chance at that. Hang in there and thanks alot. Health is more important then money any day. Stay positive.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2000 Report Share Posted April 15, 2000 Feel free to use mine. I just got results back from new bloodwork that was done. Because I was forced to go off Combo because of Termination of employment and also Insurance. Viral Load is now 29 million, I was doing so well when on the Combo before. (viral load had dropped to 350,000 from 12 million). I feel that I probably would be in or near remission at this point. But, my job with the County GOVERNMENT terminated me (on my Birthday no less) for excessive absenteism, even though was out because pulled by Doctors....Pinellas County Florida Government is such a caring and giving employer, I am being sarcastic by the way if you did not figure it out..smile. Then they went so far as to lie about my job duties to try and keep me from getting my Long Term Disability. Also another thing about P C Government Employees is that approximately 70% see Physicatrists because of job related stress........Connie --- RLWINNE@... wrote: > Connie > > You are so right about the government - this system > sucks!!!!

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2000 Report Share Posted April 15, 2000 I am far from remission. After having ro go off when I had no insurance. I am worse than I was and having to go back on treatments, I have found this share of cost program with Medicaid. I am responsible for the first $500 a month, Then it kicks in and covers rest. I hope this time to go into remission.................Thanks, Connie --- RLWINNE@... wrote: > Connie that sounds like something that would happen > to me getting terminated > on my birthday and no hope of finishing the > treatment.
