In the last 30 days, two of my medications went up 290% and 66% respectively.

My co-pay for Lyrica increased from $27.50 to $108. Pfizer raised the cost of the drug, so my health care insurance provider raised the tier of the drug to increase my cost.

If that wasn't bad enough, the Humira I need to keep my Ankylosing Spondylitis at bay went from $1,800/mo. to $3,000/mo over the same 30 day period.

I wonder which Democrat Senator's child is responsible for this?!

As an AS patient myself, how effective is Humira for you? My rheumatologist recommended it for me a couple years ago. He gave me a brochure about it to consider. On every single page of the brochure was the dire warning of possible side effects, TB, cancer, and on and on with all sorts of dreadful side effects. I just couldn’t bring myself to try the medication. I continued NSAID treatment that I had been taking for 20+ years.
