No Insurance?

Like me a lot of people with MS don't have insurance so what can you do what resources are available for us. I was diagnosed with MS when I was 16, when I was 18 I was kicked off my mothers insurance and had been without treatment since (5years). Until now I did not realized that resources are available. I had a relapse about 4 months ago and went into the emergency room for the steroids. The neurologist saw me, and when I told my story he told me to apply for free care which if I got approve for would cover my hospital and doctor visits. I got approve and within a month I had a neurologist appointment. The neurologist was very friendly and she scheduled an MRI she also sent out an application to a company named Biogen they are the manufactures of Avonex the application was for what they call the Access Program. If approved I would be entitled to receive the drug free of charge for 2 years. Needless to say I got approve and now I am on the drug. The process was very simple the neurologist did most of the paper work I just had to go in and sign it and send in my tax forms from last year. The company took care of the rest. I suggest that if you don't have or can't afford insurance I suggest talking to a neurologist and finding out all the resources that are available the Doctors know better than anyone how to get these resources. Please if you are seeing a Neurologist who is not helping you enough find a different until you get results.
