Good question. I call bullshit whether the mom is 65 or not.
Pretty low to use one's mother to try and score a dopey message board point.
I am not trying to score anything.
I'm not lying.
Most of you all know me here and you know that's not how I am on this board.
I try my best to get correct information out and when I get things wrong or incorrect I say so and admit it.
I told you what really happened to my Mom.
It is a true fact.
My Mom was on the same brand name of blood pressure medication for 15 years.
When the New Health Care Bill passed her Dr. changed her meds to 2 different types of generic drugs and it did almost kill her.
The new bill encourages Doctors to try generic drugs to save money.
I get it and it's fine if you can use the generic types.
My mother couldn't and she would have never have gotten off the meds she was on for so many years if it wasn't for the push to use generic drugs when the New Health Care Bill passed.
She is fine now but it took 2 months for her to get back to normal.
She was under quite a bit of stress because of it.
None or our senior's should have to be put under such stress because of any bills that congress passes be it Republican or Democrat.
You're still lying. Her doctor should know what drugs she's allergic to, plus her insurance company has been pushing for generic drugs all along.
Did she fall through the donut hole? Is that why she couldn't afford her usual meds? The donut hole that the ACA eliminated?
Sorry, no.
Insurance companies ARE forcing patients to go through a progression to use certain drugs.
I take Nexium, I had to use a nexum generic FIRST, if the Dr. documented that it did not work...and he did, then they approved my Nexium.
Also the "donut hole" has NOT been eliminated yet.
It will not be closed until 2020.
