Hello everyone,
Hope everyone is doing alright, or better at least. Anyway, to my point~I have panic disorder that I've been treated for by the same HMO since '93, (Kaiser Permanente, just so everyone knows) and my insurance is up in Dec on my 25th b-day. I tried, at one time, to apply to the same insurance company for an independent plan, as it's my dad's insurance that covers me. Anyway the reason they turned me down is because of my pre existing condition, being panic disorder. I've been taking nortriptyline and Klonopin for 6 yrs now, and there's NO WAY I can function without my meds. In fact, I still get anxiety attacks periodically, even with the medication. My question is, does anyone know of alternate roots to go to that can treat me? I live in Cleveland Ohio, so if anyone knows about anything, PLEASE tell me! I get panic attacks just worrying about not having insurance. I have a feeling I'm pretty much screwed. Oh, also, if anyone know about any type of Rx plan that's relativly cheap, that would be great feedback too, because I'll wind up paying about $100 a month for my Rx's. Okay, I hope everyone is feeling better, and if you want, you can email me directly at spags62@hotmail.com. Thanks alot!
Amanda
