I”m writing to repeal the 10-percent budget cut on medical benefits. Reason for my letter is I”m on Prevacid and I have to take it two times daily for the rest of my life and there is no generic brand for this medicine.
I”m low income and won”t be able to buy my medicine. Reason why I”m on Prevacid is because I have an upper gastrointestinal tract motility problem in my esophagus and a hiatal hernia, which causes me to have increased amounts of gastroesophageal reflex and a lot of chest pain.
I have S.L.E./Lupus so my health is very poor. So please in my behalf, reconsider this 10-percent budget.
