Hi! I didn't really see anything else on here posted from family members, so I thought I'd start my own. My b/f was diagnosed...2001? I think. It's hard for me to remember all the dates. We currently have no health insurance, so we have no meds for him. We're having a real tough time convincing anyone that we need help (medical bill wise) and pretty much the only people who will see us is the ER, which doesn't really help. The Dr's there don't know as much about it as we need them to. I've applied us for medicaid (that's not the one for old people, right?) And they keep telling me it doesn't matter what he has we have to get SSI first. I'm really confused. Then all the private insurance companies tell me that because it's a pre-exsisting illness they won't cover it, OR we have to pay for a year or more's coverage FIRST. We can't afford that, that's just rediculous. All in all it's been a very frustrating experience and if anyone has any advice on where to go or who could help it would be greatly appreciated. Living with him without medication is very hard, for both of us. I can't imagine what it's like for him and I feel like I'M going crazy half the time. But I love him to death and I know it can be better, we just need help. I just don't know who to cry to. I'm about out of options. Feel free to message me, I'm online alot through AIM and I will answer ANY e-mail. My AIM is AngelFishStar83 and my e-mail is arriscolwell@gmail.com Thanks everyone!
