Guest guest Posted November 25, 2001 Report Share Posted November 25, 2001 Have you asked your church for help, if you attend one that is, some don't, which includes me, no Synagogue around here 2 hour drive to one. If you get down and out they will help you and it really does not matter what church you go to. You might be eligible for Medicaid (I am not). If it is just you the cut off point is $900 monthly, even if you have $902 coming in does not matter. I Never thought life was gonna turn out this way and I know others on the list feel the same. Take Care Tatezi, Connie They sound like a good company to work for. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 6, 2001 Report Share Posted December 6, 2001 Hi Connie So sorry you're so sick. Is this part of treatment or do you have the flu? I'm really having second doubts about going on treatment...but I won't say a definite NO...will wait and see what all the test results say. But it sounds so awful, what you're going through. Just terrible. It's not fair...but in this world today just what the heck is fair hey? Hang in there Connie, I really feel bad for you.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2001 Report Share Posted December 6, 2001 Thanks Carol, It could be the flu, it could be anything, I never get well from anything, :-)). Please, don't let it scare you off of treatment. I am on a very agressive treatment for the Hec C. It consists of nightly Interferon shots 5 miu and 6 pills of Ribavarin, my weight calls for 5 pills. I am at the 6 month mark with the agressive meds. I have been wondering if maybe I should switch to new treatment. But, everything is approved through Schering, on the treatment I am on.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2001 Report Share Posted December 6, 2001 Good Lord Connie, no wonder you're sick! That's a lot of medication. No, nothing you said has turned me off treatment. It's just everything about it....depending on how the results are at Doc on the 19th...well, that's when I make up my mind, I guess. If I can locate my mind that day? LOL.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2001 Report Share Posted December 6, 2001 Carol, Connie also has a few other health problems which have made things more difficult for her, I think especially the diabetes. (What about those classes Connie! Have you called back? Don't put that off, it's really important! - I guess with my son getting shipped over seas I'll just have to take out some of my 'mothering' on you, lol!) And Connie, have you had any recent blood tests? How long have you been on treatment total now? Claudine PS everyone: This is off topic - my oldest son who is in the Air Force is getting shipped out next week, to I don't know where. It sounds like it may be Russia, but they would not tell him his exact destination. I have been pretty bummed out over this, especially because he said he will not be able to receive or send mail, and he also has no idea how long he will be gone. This not being able to communicate with him is going to be very difficult! __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2001 Report Share Posted December 7, 2001 Dear Connie, Good heavens, child, you're taking enough drugs to make you feel like you have the flu, pneumonia, bronchitis, and food poisoning all at the same time. Schering recommended this? Take care, dear, and if you don't go back to feeling like " normal " whatever that might be for you at this point, SEE YOUR DOCTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YESTERDAY!!!!!!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2001 Report Share Posted December 7, 2001 Hi Claudine, I finally got a bill and found out what Hospital I was at. I went over yesterday to see about it and was told I had appointment on the 3rd. They forgot to tell me. I have an appointment at 8:30 Wed. But as you know there is always a catch. The booklet I have says treatment there, you have to be a Bibb Co resident. I am in Houston Co, one co away. I have thought of everything but there is no way to show I am from Bibb co. Wish there was they do bloodwork and everything there. I will go and try though. Did you decide how much of that OJ you would want?......LOL Do you think I should find a lawyer? Last bloodwork was 7-8 weeks ago ever since the from the Drs office started on me I think blood levels were getting lower then, but at times it will increase the levels. I have been on treatment since January, that is the (3 months)regular and agressive combined. a total of 11-12 months?

It doesn't hurt to try. This is something you really need, so GO! No OJ, thanks anyway, lol. Don't know about the lawyer. What are they offering? Besides paying for the emergency room? You are past due for bloodwork. How much longer are you approved for the meds? Was it a year from the beginning, or a year from when it was upped to daily dosing?
