No, off-label uses of medications can be covered by insurance, so long as the physician determines the medication is medically appropriate.
Most of the medications I've had to take during my lifetime were prescribed for off-label use. Sometimes people have rare conditions. In the rheumatic diseases, meds are often studied for use in only one class of disease---say Rheumatoid Arthritis---but they end up being used also for patients with Lupus and many dozens of other systemic inflammatory diseases, some of which are fairly rare and would never have specific drugs developed for them.

Good grief, you ARE nasty, spiteful, bile soaked soul.
What would you do if Kevorkian vultures became a majority in Congress and passed legislation mandating the euthanasia of all nasty, spiteful, bile-soaked souls like yourself?

Forgive me, onyx, but I don't see a personal attack against any other FReeper in post #5, do you?

Couldn't hurt if Ambian does not interfere with any other RX's he is taking.
Strokes are brain bleeds which cause damage so I don't see how it can hurt to try.

Aslong as there is a monopoly on used body parts I'll remain skeptical of motive.

Ugh! The money issue. I know you didn't make that the case but your aunt sounds like some of my husband's aunts. Three of the family took care of his grandma in her days. His mom did the most. Once she died the rest of the family came down and even argued about what they were going to get. "I don't need this and I know you do, but my mom promised it to me." His uncle only wanted his dad's tools and that was really it.

"Oh, let it go already. The Guardian is the Nat'l Enquirer of the UK."
But it was also written up on a blog --- an we all know that if it's on a blog you can trust it as being the unbiased truth, don't we ?

I went to the site and read the whole article, and sent it on to some nurses who will find it very interesting, to say the least.

Yes, those TERRIBLE people who follow the law, as written. Oh, the law, as written, allows an unfit person to serve as a guardian? The intent of the law, as written, is to use a half-remembered, decade old conversation as a substitute for a living will? The law as written now defines food and water as medical care?
Even if they were following "the law as written" (HA!) they were just doing the same thing that Northerners did when they followed the Fugitive Slave Law and sent escapees back down the river. They're only doing the same thing that an abortionist does when he follows the law as written and rips a small child limb from limb before throwin it in the trash. Keep on cheering for it and pretending you're a moral human being.

I'd love to take this and run with it for obvious reasons that still depress me....but I'd rather not be like the embryonic stem cell advocates that latched onto the miracle breakthrough that turned out to be a sham a few weeks ago. Excellent point.

Does that make me nasty? I just don't understand.Every post you have made on this thread has been nasty. THAT is what makes you nasty.

How often are you going to serve up this silly "life at any cost" strawman?
Can you show me someone who thought that Terri's wishes were being followed, but opposed them and wanted her to be forced to live?

Why don't we give you a pillow and let you stroll through hospitals and rest homes and smother the helpless and feeble you judge unworthy of life?
Direct hit!

There it is, the price tag. And that is how they will justify it when they come for you. Try not to act too surprised.

If everyone is to be kept alive, by any means possible, WHO IS GOING TO PAY FOR IT?
Here, now you can print your "argument" out and color him. Season-appropriate to boot!
