I finally have an appointment set next week with my caseworker. I don't know if I will get a chance to talk to a psychiatrist or not. I sure hope so since I need to replace Saphris as it is too expensive. But at least I have my foot in the door.

Good luck with your appointment next week. Yes, Saphris is expensive isn't it? My insurance doesn't cover it and it costs $1,100 per month. There is just not way I can afford that but the manufacturer of Saphris does offer patient assistance based on income if your doctor has you stay on it. I got mine for no cost last year.
