There are some drug companies who will provide at least temporary free medicine. What I found disconcerting was that the drug I was needing is out of this world expensive - around $800 for 3 months, that is essential and without which I feel and function horribly - disqualified me because I was on Medicare and near as i can figure they would have given the medication to someone who had a higher income than me while I just got penalized. They said the best they could do was to help me file an appeal with my prescription drug provider. Thanks for blowing me off.
