DESPERATE IN UTAH

I READ YOUR POST AND THEN LOST IT SO I CAN'T RESPOND DIRECT. BUT YOUR PROBLEM WAS NOT HAVING MONEY TO GET TREATMENT YOU NEED TO DETOX. YOU MENTIONED YOU ARE UNEMPLOYED. BUT YOUR FIANCE IS TRYING TO FIND WORK FORGET ABOUT THAT. WHEN HE DOES FIND WORK THEY MAY OR MAY NOT OFFER INSURANCE. WHICH WOULD NOT COVER YOU AS YOU ARE NOT MARRIED AT THIS TIME. GET YOURSELF DOWN TO THE STATE MEDICAID OFFICE AND APPLY FOR EMERGENCY BENEFITS FOR YOURSELF.DO NOT TELL THEM YOU LIVE WITH YOUR FIANCE. AT THE VERY LEAST YOU ARE ENTITLED TO MEDICAID. AND FOOD STAMPS. TELL THEM YOU ARE UNABLE TO WORK AT THIS TIME. I WOULD TRY A PSYCH DIAGNOSIS FOR MAJOR DEPRESSION AS WELL AS WELL AS ANY PHYSICAL CONDITIONS YOU MAY HAVE. YOU MAY BE ENTITLED TO SSI OR SSDI IF YOU HAVE PAID 40 QUARTER OVER TEN YEARS. AT THE VERY LEAST SSI WILL PAY FOR $623.00 PER MONTH, BUT IN THE MEAN TIME YOU SHOULD QUALIFY FOR MEDICAID EVEN IF ONLY FOR 6 MONTHS. BE SURE AND SELECT A MEDICAID HMO THAT HAS SUBOXONE ON IT. THEY USUALLY FOLLOW MEDICARE GUIDELINES AND SUBOXONE IS AN APPROVED FORMULARY. MEDICARE LIST THE SUBS AS A PAIN MEDICATION, TIER 3 NO PRIOR ARRPOVAL REQUIRED. I PICKED MY SUBS UP YESTERDAY AT WALGREENS AND THE PAPER WORK SAID YOUR INSUANCE SAVED YOU $ 750.00, W/A $5.00 COPAY. BUT YOU WILL HAVE TO RESEARCH THE MEDICAID HMO YOU PICK. DONT LET THE STATE PICK ONE FOR YOU. ASK FOR A COPY OF THEIR CURRENT FORMULARY (DRUG LIST) TO MAKE SURE DETOX DRUGS ARE ON THEIR.  GOOD LUCK

I just wanted to give you a heads up so that the message did not get overlooked because of something silly like that.. that is all.. I have seen it happen and I didn't think from your message that you were. I apologize if i stepped in disrespectfully that was not my intention.

Thanks for the heads up on cap locks situation, does the content of my message seem abrasive to you, Respectfully, I think someone who seems to spend sufficient time on thie site would focus on the message itself. Your only comment was I used the wrong format responding to a woman that is truly reaching out for advise and help in caps or not. I am sure she will appreciate your words of wisdom as I have. Thanks again

Is your caps lock stuck or are you yelling??  In the forum world, writing in all caps is considered yelling.. just wanted to check and be sure
