I was just diagnosed with EPI & have been in limbo for days wondering why Medicare did not have my Rx listed Zenpep, insurance declined it & my inaccessible dr has not responded to me nor pharmacy. So I asked cost w/o insurance $4000+ with Good Rx $3000+ New to all this discussion? Or is this a blog? hoping post will get me back to EPI thread. I was trying to switch from oldest to newest when all I got was a list of other conditions but no EPI? Need help thx much Jan

I think @kamama94 @jenatsky may have some insight about drug coverage. I hope you hear from your doctor or pharmacist soon.
