"Greatest Country in the world" (USA) residents (older folks ideally) have you all been "forced" to go gray cuz your prescription was too expensive?

I was forced to go grey bc of insurance lol.

But in reverse, my insurance basically told me, "you took the drug. you lost weight and most recent lab results are stable. you are very young and don't need it anymore to maintain" lmao. And then went on to basically tell me to lock in and go to the gym + "focus on nutrition".

They would NEVER say this for a non-glp drug that is working for a patient. Imagine they said this for antidepressants, "ur no longer depressed, you are young and don't need it anymore"

If she has sleep apnea maybe a script for Zep could be cheaper idk. Something to explore and her insurance pharmacy ppl can explain to you the different costs and/or if there is a cheaper option.

I feel for everyone who has had access to this quality of life changing medication denied by their insurance company or been priced out by cost.

Setting politics aside, I don’t think constructive criticism of policies or systems should automatically be viewed as hatred of a country, nor should it be met with “then leave.” People can appreciate where they live while still wanting things to improve.

Healthcare is fundamental to quality of life and there are many conditions that people were born with or have no control over. Wanting this to improve benefits our society as a whole.

I thoroughly enjoy reading the stories in here from people who’ve had their life changed via peptides and those who have found reliable cost efficient gray, and I look forward to reading more of these stories.

I feel like we need to push for new legislation that would allow us to make our own purchasing decisions and save our own lives or not. Like the Right to Try act does for cancer patients. IMO the grey market will save more lives than harm people. Though a few could be harmed, it is our own risk and choice to try.

I have nothing to add except HOLY SHIT I missed all the political bullshit!!!! Dayum!
RandomPerson can you update .e through your signature???? 🥴🥰

I can't. As soon as someone starts spouting political opinions that I find unsavory, misogynistic, or cruel, I hit ignore cause I play on the internet for fun and no way am I gonna read that sh when nobody's paying me to do it.

It makes my social media experience in general fairly awesome because if it isn't wonderful its not on my screen, but it does mean lots of conversations look confusing and fragmented cause I'm missing the weird half.

Love the signature 🤣

I almost didn't, cause bro had mentioned some mental health issues in his intro thread and I try not to make comedy out of someone who's struggling, but his kiss-off made me lol too hard to pass up.
