Daily Ramblings

This is just a post to express my frustrations at my doctor. I’m figuring out that the reason he won’t give me the medication that I asked for is because it’s not covered by my insurance. I have to pay full price. But the pharmacy said that as long as I don’t get the time-released version of Prevacid, then it’s only $10 out of my pocket.

“One third of GERD patients may have erosive esophagitis (EE).” says the ads. Pantoprazole (aka Protonix) is supposed to heal EE the same as Nexium or Prevacid does. I’m not saying the drug doesn’t work at all. Maybe it will for you. But it doesn’t for me.

Argh! Having LRD sucks! If you are reading this, then most likely you also have it or you think you may have it. Which also sucks.
