I was approved for them, meds were mixed, and I though I was ready  to go, this was the first of May. Nope, you all know that shit don't work that easy for me. So, my doc required me to have an epipen. When it was turned in  to the pharmacy, Medicaid said I had to  pay the amount for it cause I had not  met my deductible since I had not met that yet. I was told that would run 160 bucks. I...

Some were amazing, others, I am not sure how they were on the  list. Maybe there was a short...
