I think I need a Glentervention...

My insurance is the shittiest thing ever...My wife pays nearly all of her paycheck for my primary insurance, and it will not cover my new MS medication due to it being a pre-existing condition. My Medicare will cover the cost of the medication, which is ridiculous in of itself cost wise, but I am then responsible for an Administration fee... 546$ for the first hour 333$ for every hour after.  The process of my getting this medication is a 2 hour infusion, once per month. How in the hell is this even remotely fair? Haven't I been through enough shit in my life to not have too deal with this too? For Fucks sake....What in the hell did I do to deserve this... I may as well do like I have been saying for years and tattoo DNR on my forehead and hope for the best...


I want to kick the shit out of my MS, I want to go on this new medication. I don't want to put my family through any more financial hardships then they already are going through, and it just isn't fair...Sure, I know, Life isn't fair, Get over it Glen. Suck it up and drive on. Thats what everyone says, walk a mile in my shoes and then talk to me... end of story.


I've lost my only son, nearly lost my daughter, my wife is also fighting a long term fight with Diabetes (she was diagnosed when she was 2), my family is ripping itself apart. I do what I can to help anyone and everyone that I touch in my life hoping that by doing good things, I will somehow be rewarded in the end. And what good does it do me? People try to help, most people don't know what to say. Those that do say something usually know nothing about what they are trying to even convey. Who in the hell did I shit on in a past life to deserve this kind of Karma?
