It seems my medication has been changed mid stream.  I do not know what the heck is going on other than the cost of the medication as I am told all 3 medications cost ten thousand dollars a month. I was told this by my pharmacy then it seemed that my meds changed. I still have a bad taste in my mouth and just do not know what is going on. I am going to chat with physicians in another state and figure this problem out..

Why would they change my medication mid stream?

What medications did the doctor put you when you started treatment (the names of the meds)?

What medications are you on now? They are prescription so they have to have a lable that states what they are.

Maybe if we know the names of the meds, we will know more and offer some help.

Please call the prescribing doctor and make sure a mistake was not made.

so you are taking Victrelis - I see the picture of the box I get in the mail every month.  The 100% cost of all 3 medications is about $8600.  - I pay $60 for ribavirin and the pharmacy found coupons for the copays for the other two.

Are you sure  you are not just adding a rescue drug - maybe procrit?  Sounds like you need to take someone with you to the doctor's office to take notes.  I don't see that you need to speak to doctors in other states.  What will that do?
