A lot of these drug companies will send you discount coupons if you contact them and explain you don't have insurance...usually they'll take the prices down to 30 or even 20 dollars.

So many meds cause rapid weight gain. Someone needs to make biofeedback, acupuncture, reiki, massage, etc. affordable. Some places do it on a sliding scale. Anyone suffer from tinnitus/ringing in the ear? Some meds can make that unbearable. I hope to get results of blood tests this week 're: lupus, thyroid, etc. And I see the GI to schedule the endoscopy for the Barrett's which is irreversible.

This is my second try on cymbalta, The first time, I was working and couldn't function. It made me sick and zombie-like. Then I went to a Fibromyalgia expert doctor, she suggested I give it another try. Since I wasn't working, I thought now is the time to get though the side effects. I'm glad I did, It helped with stiffness and nerve pain. It took about 2 weeks to start working for me, I almost gave up during that time and she emailed me and told me to hang in there a little longer. I did.
I tried Lyrica, I blew up in weight gain immediately.
