Please help, I have Hep C I need the medicine and I cannot afford it. It would be over 1000 a month, I have insurance this is what I will pay out of pocket. I am not working now, I have diabetes too, I have been sick all winter I need this bad, I am a single mother and my kids need me. I can barely make the mortgage, electric, phone, and a loan, as well as diabetes medicine. that is 50.00 a month please help Me. I am scared and want to take this medicine. I have had this for a while, Dr said it would cost approx 12,000.00 for a year treatment. possibly more than that now. I do not know what to do.
