Message: <blockquote data-quote="kitsunerin" data-source="post: 1717247" data-attributes="member: 216665">Hey guys! Ever since I got diagnosed (17 years ago) I have had free prescriptions. Most my life I lived in Wales and had free prescriptions, dental and eye care. I have been in England for three years and I am honestly so confused. I am not on any benefits, although I cannot work due to chronic pain and debilitating anxiety (avoidant personality disorder). I do have a fiance who has finally found a full time job, though he doesn't get paid until the very end of March. We are living off donations from friends right now as we have no money at all. I am really worried that I need to pay for my insulin and medication now, and I don't know how I'm going to do it... I have been told I am no longer able to claim ESA, I have applied for PIP but that is still in progress. I am also due the dentist but cannot afford that either. I saw that I might be able to get a FP92A form, but I am not sure if I can because my partner is working? I hate that they judge things based on our partners! I'm really really confused on what to do and I'm worried I'm going to run out of insulin. The last few prescriptions they didn't ask and so I think my partner (who picks it up) wrote that I was still receiving benefits... If anyone knows what step I can take it would be very much appreciated! Thank you!</blockquote>
