ugh.  If not for the help I have received from Medicare these last two years post transplant I would cry.  My new statement is now up to $346 and some change.  But in pharmacy alone, they pay more than that for me, so I guess I can't complain.  I'll wish I had them come December.  Plus, they have picked up my $3000 insurance deductible every year, as well.

Yeah, Medicare has been very good to us ESRD people.  What do liver and heart transplants do?  Who helps pay for their anti-rejection drugs?
