This is a small rant about meds. I have been thinking of doing an actual blog about it & still might do a more proper one in the future. Until then, here is a small one.
There is one thing I am tired of & that is medicine costing way more than it should. Some need them for a little awhile & some need them to survive. Prices keep going up making it harder & harder for us to afford what we need to help us get through the day. It's stupid & it sucks. Who else is tired of money hungry people? I know I am. They remind me of Pac-Man, gobbling up all the money they can get.
Me, I need inhalers to survive. It's only 2 but still. One I am supposed to take everyday & that runs anywhere from $145-$200 depending on where you get it! How can one afford this? Some may have health insurance but sometimes even that doesn't help.
My other rant, scientist can cure certain illnesses, they do it all the time. Yet, some of the simple things that are out there are not cured. Why? Oh yeah, because the drug people make to much money off of us & would rather have that than actually helping cure certain things. If they really tried, I am sure they can cure the common cold, asthma & other things in the like. I mean they almost have slowed down the process and/or have almost cured aids, able to beat a lot of caners (if detected in time)so why not these other things? I know I don't exactly know how these things works but seriously, even if something wouldn't normally kill us, that doesn't mean it shouldn't have a cure.
Clinics. There needs to more low priced clinics around for people that can't afford the doctors. The people inside need to be nicer and oh yeah, when you have to jack up the cost for a check-up, shouldn't you make sure the client knows before hand? I go to my asthma doctor & find out they went from $45 to $75 in like a year! They didn't tell me this over the phone & I had to end up walking out because I don't have $75 to get in. I am need of these inhalers so I can breath.
I don't know what the right thing to do about health care & medicine but so far what the government has been doing isn't working. It really sucks & really needs a big change.
