I have been a member here for quite sometime ,but due to sickness and very bad forgetfulness i haven't posted alot..
I don't have a DR. nor do i have any insurance.. i have had lyme since i was a little girl..and was diagnosed with it in 1989..since then i have only had doxy..IV rocephin (for only 3 wks)and that is it up until the current time..and i have never been tested for anything else but lyme disease..
I have really bad neuro problems..stiff neck ..nightmares..anxiety..headaches..etc etc..
What i just need to know if there is anyone out there that has any thing they do not take anymore.. i can't take penicillin ..or any sporins.. because i am deathly alergic to it..if you have anything that you do not take anymore i would be more then happy to pay for the postage of it being sent..I would not ask ..but i know others are very fortunate that have drs ..and just might have things they don't need anymore..
, I'm sorry this is so long..my mind is so bad that i can't think correctly abotu how to do sentences the right way.
Thankyou so much for any help anyone can give me..

Oh Shiloah,

I am really sorry to hear that you are so sick and having trouble getting the help you need. Do unfair to have to struggle with health and money problems, which as you know become a vicious cycle.

Can you get to some dr to at least get some prescriptions for your abx?

I have heard that some drug companies will give meds for free in certain situations.

I don't think it is safe to self-prescribe our medicine with our lyme brains and all.

Please be careful, especially since you are so sick.

Anyone have info on help with Rx?

Best Wishes,

Char

It is illegal to give or accept prescriptions that are not prescribed for the person intended.

Sorry. Try the needymeds site.

You really need a dr.

Like the others said if you qualify you may be able to get your med free.

I would check out the website.... The first appointment with a llmd is usually pretty expensive but I only see my dr one time a month... so its not that bad.

Besides being illegal it really is not safe to take someone else's medicine.... you could accidentally end up doing yourself alot of harm that way.

Please check out the needy meds website.

Best wishes [Smile]

Shiloah, hope the needy site will help you.

Also, please hit the enter key more often so we are able to help you by reading/comprehending what you wrote.

Yes, do NOT take other folks' prescribed pills.

Do you have any type of a FREE CLINIC in a large city near you?
