success! finally

it only took 4 months, $830 out of pocket waiting out delays, and almost my sanity.

lilly's program finally actually sent my doctor my drugs!!

(of course, the biggest problem with the program is that everything goes through the doctor, who has many patients to deal with, instead of me, the patient, who has a vested interest. if all communication went through me directly instead of being sent back to the doctor, i could have saved buying meds each month of delay. the office couldn't understand what insurance would send drugs to their office.)

this is $1,200 worth of anti-depressants--4 months worth. i'm both happy and worried about what happens next.

lilly cares? NOT

i've been trying for months now to get my depression meds directly from Eli Lilly since i actually have tax forms that prove i haven't made any money.

so far, my doctor has mailed the forms, i waited a month as they tell you it takes, and found out they never received it.

then, i had my doctor fax the forms. apparently last week they were sent back to the doctor because i'm asking for more than the recommended doses. HELLO it's been two months and this is the first i've heard of that. and of course, no one contacted me.

it's $265 every month for these meds. i can't pay another month. that's why i tried this alternative.

damn it. why is everything so hard?

and, now whenever i do get the damn drugs, i can't have that extra pill when i need it. mind you, when i had Rx coverage and paid almost as much as i do now without coverage, lilly had no problem taking my $$ for that extra pill.

and just for the record: i'm a depressive. do they want me to just give up? that's what we do. that's why i need the damn drugs.

pissed annoyed and sad
