No money for meds
My insurance company doesn't even sell any COPD meds, it's express scripts, if I order at Walmart or a local drugstore it's too expensive to buy so I go without. My doctor said ask the pharmaceutical company for help but since there are only 2 of us (both over 60) but still working they say we make too much for them to help, we already pay over $100.00 for other meds we can't live without, so I just try not to over exert myself and try and stay away from anything that triggers my COPD and my asthma. Some times I feel like I'm taking in my last breath! I don't know where to turn or what to do, I used to take both spiriva and advair but now I can not afford them with our new insurance.
