Doc, I don't know if you are American, but if you are that is what is
wrong with this country. Your wife had a medication that worked, but
it is too expensive so now you have to have approval for 6mp.
Me...being lucky enough to have a "state job", and the good insurance
that is a benefit, can take any medication that is prescribed to me
for a $6.00 co-pay. Something is very wrong here. Everyone in this
country should have the same insurance I have. That is not fair.
