Reply to "Finding it hard to stay optimistic"

Hi Angie you said it all. No I am not drug rep. My brother in law is and have not spoken in many years due to other things. But I saw first hand how horrible it is.

I need to know if there is anyone on this site that takes Belladonna/Opium suppositories? Like I said before even with my doctors wonderful truthful letters to Medicare they denied me to help pay for it. The only other thing he gave me was valium suppositories with I think 8 limotil a day. Its did not work leaked 95% of my day and it was really bad and is 2000.00 a month but they will pay for that. But that puts me really fast in the donut hole. It will take now 5000.00 out of pocket to get some coverage but not for the drug that really helped. I'm beyond confused. I was going to call or write the company who makes it for help.

I see my therapist that wrote on of the wonderful letters to help with my cause. She said with all the letters they surely will not deny me. She is going to be over the top furies when I tell her they denied me. I called to find out if they received it 2 weeks ago and they told me over the phone. But I have not received anything in the mail or in writing yet. She said I could try one more time its called 2nd appeal something and its sent to a independent company to review and see if they can help. I don't want to do anything until I get the deniel in writing. Then she said if that did not work I could get a lawyer OMG are you kidding.

I guess I am lucky to have a 3 month supply still. I am so scared when I run out. Before I was on it the pain no control and I was so sick. I cant bear to go back to that. That is why I asked if there was anyone here that takes it. Everything I have been given has been suppositories. The doctor said when I told him that the valium was not working. He said there is nothing else but the belladonna/opium left, there was nothing else he could give me really? There is only 2 drugs that help? I have hashimoto also and my new great Medicare ins. does not cover my pcp or my endocrinologist. Waiting now over 2 weeks to get new health booklet of doctors that I can go to. I called the other day and they said its in the mail. I feel overwhelmed, angry, when I start talking about it I have a panic attack. I don't what to do next anymore. My depression is at a all time high.

You work your whole life sometimes 2 jobs and you get sick and they make you fight for everything and then deny you. It makes me incredible sad.

Thanks for listening

Frances
