I've been getting some really nasty headaches lately. Turns out it's a pretty bad ear infection. My doctor sent a prescription over to the pharmacy to help me out but that stuff is seriously expensive... Doctors probably don't even know the actual price of these medications themselves. There's always a name brand and a generic option. I'm definitely going to call my doctor's office tomorrow. I'm going to tell them straight up that I cannot afford the name brand and ask if they can prescribe me the generic version instead. Not gonna pay 1k USD for some pain reliever. #Healthcare #BudgetTalk #EarInfections #MedicalBills #AffordableHealthcare #PatientAdvocacy #USHealthcare #HealthTips #CostOfLiving
