Title: Anyone in Minnesota?
Post by Leemo on Oct 3rd, 2006, 2:22am
I'm into a particularly nasty cluster right now It seems the further into the cycle I get, the more frequent and intense they get.  To make things worse, my employer dropped our insurance so I can't get o2 or Imitrex right now.  I can't afford to buy it on my own since 2 shots of Imitrex would cost me $680.  If there is anyone out there near the Twin Cities, who could help me with either O2 or Imitrex?   I would gladly pay your co-pay if you could help me out.  I'm really desperate at this point.  I applied for insurance through the state but was told it will take a while to come through.  My email is leemo88@comcast.net .  Can someone please help?

Welder's oxygen with the right regulator and a clustermask.  Cheap, available.

Hello Leemo. Welcome. I'm sure that you realize what you're asking is illegal.
There are a few treatments that are not expensive and do not require prescriptions. Have a look at the kudzu thread at the top of the Medications board. Cheap, and OTC.
George mentioned welders oxygen. That's what I use.
Do you get hit during the night? Melatonin is a great help if you do.
Need a quick abort (that's cheaper than Imitrex?) Red Bull helps many.
Read all you can, and you'll find some help.
pain free wishes, nani
