I'm 21 years old and live in NC. I've been on a list of seizure meds all of which cause my seizures to increase in frequency, length and intensity. I have no health coverage whatsoever, I can't get referred to an epilepsy center due to this because no neurologist wants to see someone with no income or coverage.

My insurance denied the request and appeal for IVIG so my doctors office is now going to try to get approval for Rituxan. Thoughts?

My wife is having a really hard time adjusting to our new life, she doesn't drive and I can't now, she asks all the time, what do we want to do, where do we want to go etc. I need to hook her up with some support of some kind.

Thanks.
