I am lucky because most of my meds are either 4 or 8 dollars at walmart. The most expensive one I have is clonazapam and I get 60 1mg tablets for 21 at walmart.

Thank you to everyone for your responce. I have been looking for anyway I can to pay for meds or get some free. Asking anyone and everyone where I can find help. The Girl at my regular doctors office said "but we called you in one". I wanted to scream what part of NO money do you not understand. The part I normally pay for my meds each month is $120. But being so sick I spent well over $250 last month plus four office visits. There is just no way to pay for anymore.

I did talk to a case manager where I work and she found me a plan that may cover my lyrica. And I found another plan that will pay for my blood pressure meds. Both plans take a couple months to get in to put I am hopefull. The case manager told me to keep asking at the doctors office any time I go, she said she always tells patients that. And that no matter how they act the meds are there for them to give away so keep trying.

I also am going to take the walmart list next time I go to the doctor and see if any thing can be changed.

Good luck everyone!
