Well no word from my j pouch specialist with his letter.
Found out yesterday that I am now in the donut hole but they cant call it that but it is just that. I called and talked to very nice man and I know he felt bad telling me and you cant shoot the messenger. He said I will have to pay about 1000.00 a month for the next 3 years until I reach I certain amount and then I will be put in the Catastrophic coverage. Doesn't that sound great. They now call the donut hole stage 3 coverage gap. Why does the only thing that works so expensive? I don't know what I am going to do yet. I have to send forms with letters to see if they will appeal the denial and cover it. I have not told anyone yet I just cant. I feel like a liability and a burden to my family and I just cant tell them. So I cant go to my family doctor that knows me like a book and now my dentist does not take Medicare. God do I feel like a second class citizen. Its wrong for people to look at you differently if they don't see a limb missing and your 55 and its none of there business and they can think what they want.
Went out to dinner with my best friend last night and it was nice to listen and help her now that she might loose her job. It is nice being there for others it truly makes me happy.
Well thanks everyone and I hope you all have a great and good weekend.
