Also, local chapters of the Red Cross may be able to help, or help you find what you need. If you have a Caritas around, they can help with meds, bills, and other things too. Goodwill (an office, not a store) can help, and so can the Samaritans.
If you want/need any help with any of this, shoot me a PM. That goes for anyone.
I don't have insurance, and have to pay for 4 different meds.... the cheapest of which is about $70 a month. There have been a couple of times I have had to go without meds cause I was broke. Blah, I try to avoid that now if at all possible. My illness isn't life threatening directly, but I can do some darned stupid things when I get off my meds. Actually, you would be able to tell in here even.... if I quit making much sense remind me to take my meds lol. Well... less sense than I usually make anyway!
