Hi deb,
I don't know the websites off hand to give but you can google websites. I found some a few months ago. Search Free medications, pharmacutical assistance, somthing like that. Also some of the pharmacutical companies can assist. Check who made your meds and contact them. I use a heating pad sometimes when the pain is real bad on my legs, feet, toes, hands, arms etc.. and it helps. I also use ice packs on my the bottom of my feet when they are burning. Hope you get better.
Hello deb1258,
I am sorry to hear of your situation. There are a lot of people facing your dilemma considering our economy. If I wasn't the one in my household covering my family with insurance, we would certainly be in trouble because my husband lost his job last year. I do know that Pfizer, the makers of Lyrica has a prescription insurance program for people who are uninsured. I don't know the details, but you can find them on their website:

Also, there are other things you can do over the counter, for example, small doses of Benadryl at night is great for use as a sleep aid. I used to take Doans (magnesium salicylate) for back pain and it was semi-helpful. Like babyde mentioned, heating pads and ice packs are a necessity for sure! Good luck to you.
Hi.....
If you search under .http://www.rxassit.com..you will be able to locate whatever drug that you might need for the pain.
There's a mail order prescription pharmacy, who charges 90-day supply for $30.00 only for my anti-seizure meds....its name is RX OUTREACH. (if I get it from regulare pharmacy, it would have cost me $160.00 ) You do need a doctors prescription for any assistance.
You could also contact your local charity organizations, like SALVATION ARMY, RED CROSS, or even some CHURCHES.
Lots luck to you. Hang in there.
