Regardless, the good news is that you've seen a doctor, been tested and diagnosed. Now that you know what you're dealing with, fixing the problem doesn't sound like it should be a big deal. Thyroid replacement hormone (usually Synthroid or Levoxyl) is pretty cheap, even if you don't have insurance coverage for drugs -- about $10/month, I believe.
It isn't the pills, its all the blood tests and lab visits. I had insurance, but I lost it. In order to get my prescription again, Id have to make another appointment, have another blood test, go on pills, come back to get more blood tests... etc etc and I cant afford to Go to the Doctor....
as to the the patient assistance program... that would be fin, but I still couldn't afford to go to the Doctor.
Ive been trying to find help for awhile... but I cant. *sighs*
