Yes, its me again!! I just wanted to say a few more things. First off, I have got to say that you have to be the best bunch of people in the world. I have been visiting the site quite regularly recently and came across a posting by a girl named Amanda who was in LA and lost and at her wits' end. The support you all were throwing her way was overwhelming. I'm not afraid to say that it moved me to tears. I have never seen a group of strangers pull together to help one another as much as you do. I am unfortunately part of this clan, but knowing that I am in the company of such wonderful human beings brings me comfort. I want everyone to know that I am also here for ANYONE who needs support, an ear or a shoulder to cry on. I have suffered the beast for as long as I can remember and although I cannot relieve your pain, I can provide some kind of psychological support by just being here. Each and every one of you has a friend here.
The second thing I want to say is, I can't believe the cost of the Imitrex jabs!! I got a sample from my neurologist last Friday and they are gone so I called for a scrip. When I went to the pharmacy to pick them up the lady told me, "That will be $220." I almost fell on the floor!!! I asked if that was with my prescription card, and they told me that my insurance company does not cover injectables. Those are about the only thing that has worked for me. I have no access that I know of to any O2. Does anyone know of anything else that may help that might be covered by insurance? Now, I have to drive 50 miles to get a couple samples. Take care all.
