Re: HALT-C study and Medicine Program

[Guest guest]

Alley,

The lady will e-mail you back with info on it.

Don't know if you need it though, your doing good and

I pray you stay that way.

Also, on that Medicine Program I have heard it works

good, but takes 1 to 2 months. But, I have also found

out Physicians have applications for free or reduced

meds from the different Pharmaceutical houses for

their specific drugs. It is for indigent, uninsured,

underinsured etc..... Ask your Doc if he has the

apps, or maybe his secy. If they don't your local

Health Department might. Hope this helps. Take Care,

Connie

Also ask your doc if he has any samples he can give

you. I've gotten meds more than once this way when

whatever the doc was prescribing wasn't on my

insurances " formulary " . One even called the drug rep

and had him bring over some more samples so I'd have

enough. This doesn't work well if you're needing a

medication long term, but for a couple of weeks it can

get you by.

Connie, does the Ultram help you?

My doc gave me some samples and even taking 2 didn't help me at all.

Pat, oddly enough they do most the time. Stronger

meds were no longer helping. Try them again, the

first few times they didn't help me but Doc Aguila had

me try them again. They help the most I have noticed

if I take them and then run a hot tub of water while I

am sitting in it (can stand hotter that way), and also

when I am laying down and my legs hurt so bad that I

just can't lay still and I take a couple I will see

relief. Don't know if this is RLS or just aches and

pains. They don't seem to work in the same way as the

hydocodone and stuff, I guess they are a different

formulary...Good Luck Pat..Take Care, Connie

PS: Sometimes I take 3 or 4 it all depends on if the

first 2 work. We need stronger doses of meds.

The Government entity in FL, that I formerly worked

for went to United Health of FL, 10/01/99, I was

terminated 9/29/99 so I never used it. I have heard

they just stayed with them 1 or 2 years though. Never

heard no pros or cons about it, maybe others have.

Actually I do remember one thing my combo was going to

be a co-pay every 2 weeks. The Cigna ins. I was on,

was just a monthly co-pay.......Good Luck, Connie

We have a PPO Insurance also through where I work and we have a $15.00 co pay

for doctors appts. and then we pay 10% of hospital tests ect so it works out

pretty good for us thank goodness. We do have to go to network doctors as

they call them but so far all the good doctors we have seen have been on the

network list. We are very thankful for this. Thats means that I can't

change jobs though even if I wanted to because when I got new Insurance they

would call his Hep C pre-existing and I bet everyone out there has heard that

word before.
