My 88-year-old mother got MRSA in the hospital. When she was released, they gave me a prescription for an antibiotic for 20 days. I went to the drugstore, and was floored to be told it would be $4,000. Obviously, i couldn’t pick up the med for her. Who has $4,000 loose change in their purse? Are we supposed to apply for a loan like buying a car, just to fill a prescription? Something is wrong here.

I do not understand how Pfizer can get away with charging so much for the Zyvox prescription. I have to believe people who have MRSA choose not to get treatment base on the cost. Ridiculous. I plan to write the CEO and my congress person.

I want to volunteer for the chance to be cured of MRSA. I have it in my blood stream aswell. Doctors won’t do surgery on my back, or my heart because of the infection surgey history I now have from it. I need to be able to go back to work some day. I have been coming up with no affects from antibiotics, or allergic to them.
