Sue’s Story

I am now retired, but I endured years of painful plaque psoriasis while I was in the workforce. When I was prescribed Humira, I quickly discovered that it was a “miracle drug” in treating my symptoms. It helped me treat the painful sores on my body that had plagued me for years. However, I have been forced to stop taking Humira after learning the treatment would cost me over $8,000 a year out-of-pocket. I don’t have too large of a savings account, and I live off of the fixed income provided to me by Social Security. I can’t afford to pay for Humira under any circumstances.
