Great post. I will pray for you that you get the meds you need to ease your pain.

My insurance company stopped paying for my Xanax. I suffer from severe anxiety and panic disorder due to issues from my past. Xanax helps greatly with my panic attacks.

A couple of months ago, my insurance company stopped covering Xanax because they didn’t want people to get addicted. That angered me that they were playing doctor because if I don’t have my Xanax, I’ll end up in the ER with panic attacks.

My Doctor recommended that I try Ativan for a month to see how that worked. Tried it, didn’t work. My insurance would pay for Ativan for some reason, which makes no sense because it is a Benzo just like Xanax. But, it’s weaker.

I finally decided to pay for my Xanax out of pocket. Luckily it’s only $10.

I pray that you get the help you need. I hate that the drug war is hurting innocent people who truly need pain meds.

I’m glad you can keep your Xanax. When a med works there is really no replacement.

I’m currently taking 900mg of gabapentin 3 times daily. It helps get me through the day but I need extra pain med to let me be able to sleep.

There is help out there.
Somehow I’ll find it.
Maybe an Amish doctor with some old fashioned medicine will have something.

Insurance companies and politicians need to get out of the doctors offices and let them treat their patients.

I think it was Xanax they gave me before my breast biopsy...this procedure was certainly made up by a woman hating man....you lie with your naked breast thru a hole in a table and the dr comes beneath you and puts this long skinny needle into your breast and clips a little specimen, and leaves a little metal marker there as well...macabre..

but with Xanax 1.5, I never even knew it was happening...
