Oh Eagle, I am so very sorry. 30 pills for $9,000? It is just not right! I will say a prayer for both you and your wife.

Something has to be done about Healthcare.

My husband told me on Sunday that he was feeling a "rumbling" in his groin area (since Friday)...a day or two later his back began to bother him. Called his Dr. and they said they could see him in June. But if was a "real problem" for him to go to the local ER or Urgent Care at the hospital (he works at the Brigham & Womens in Boston). He went to Urgent Care today during work...was told ...probably just an infection that you are getting over. If it continues...contact your Dr. Hello! Isn't that what he did in the first place and they said June?
