Been running circles to try and get my Mother's insulin for the past month. Insurance says they won't cover it anymore. 500 bucks a month. Can't afford it. My Mom quite literally relies on it to survive. Hate that I'm relating with this guy so much, but I didn't ask for Joe Biden to do this to the costs. I voted against it. Now I'm not sure what to do to help her.
Shit man, I'm so sorry.
I appreciate the kind words. These things have a way of working themselves out, usually. Praying that's the case.
Same boat man. My niece is type 1, got it at 3mos. Old. They were so excited when priced dropped. Their whole family is based, voted Trump.
She's 14 and idk what theyre gonna do. Her sister had Lukemia, fought and barely survived that (docs. Had written her off, had to go through experimental surgery, etc).
The family doesnt have this kind of money. I guess we'll start talking with churches and family, see who can contribute to keep her alive until it settles down.
Will pray for you.
Do you have friends in Canada or Mexico? (Or India, Europe, AU etc ... but be careful, they use different concentrations over there). That's one way, if they can mail it.
Also, Wal-Mart has insulin for cash $24 / vial. Novolin R, N; not the fancy lyspro fast-acting analogs, but with some discipline it works. I've been on that for years after developing allergies to the analogs. The companies often have programs to sell them cheaper if you're uninsured or poor (i.e., to keep you from being sympathetic in the nightly newscast). Their policies are geared to steal money from insurance companies, and give an out to people. Definitely worth a call.
I'll return the prayers, happily. I hope they're answered soon. You and your family stay strong!

Hey, I'm going through old comments and especially since its mother's day...how are things going with the insulin situation these days?
Check with your moms doctor or the hospital. Sometimes there’s applications you can fill out to get lower drug prices. It’s worth a try. Best of luck.
Waiting to hear back from them for some time now, daily calls, the works. Hopefully answers coming soon! Thank you for the advice and luck <3
