All my life I have been healthy with no major health problems. I am now retired and for the past 6 months I have been experiencing this extreme burning in my entire body. It started in my left toe and now it is all over my body. They have been running test for the past 4 months and still have not found anything wrong. I also have high Cholesterol and my medication for that is off the chain. I pay 125 dollars for 30 pills of 1 medication and $90.00 for another each month. Since I was in great health, I did not plan ahead as far as prescription drugs. I should have secured some kind of insurance to cover the cost of prescription. I do have medical insurance but nothing to help with prescription drug coverage. My daughter have investigated the Medicare prescription plan but in order to get the help you have to be pretty destitute (not owning anything).

I am not intending this to be gloom and doom as I am still have my mobility and over all life is good. I guess the moral of this story is to always plan ahead.
