Call the Medical Ctrs many of them offer freecare. Also look into clinical trials.

hi there.  welcome to the forum.  i got into a clinical trial.  everything is free.  liver biopsy, meds. and doctor's visits.  they monitor me very closely.  i have been on for 44 weeks with 4 left to go.  at the end i get a check for about $650 for my participation.  look into clinicaltrials.gov.  there are a lot out there.  good luck to you.  belle
