If you're on Medicare try going to Social Security office and submitting paper work for low income subsidy assistance (extra help).

Hi B.,

Sorry you are having a hard time. I think the best thing you can do is start calling churches and government programs or since you are on the internet you have a wealth of information at your finger tips! From a quick search I found this web site that (about half way down the page) has a feature where you can enter your information and they provide you with a list of programs for which you qualify.

Here it is: http://www.nonprofitexpert.com/states/ky.htm

Hope this helps! Good luck to you.

B., Eliza is right. Go to your pharmacy or search online for the contact info for the companies that manufacture your meds. Most all of them now have programs specifically designed for those who cannot afford their medications. Also, as far as financial help with your bills ... have you applied for SSI (Supplemental Security Income)? At your age, and if you are on restricted income (pension or Social Security) you should be eligible. It's not a lot but it will help.

Good luck.
