I was having low-mid level anxiety, loss of appetite and insomnia. Remeron cured the insomnia and appetite immediately. Anxiety was much less within a couple of weeks and gone within a month or so. Constipation occurred for about a week and then went away. I have gained weight over the last year but am changing my diet to be more healthy (no white sugar or white flour, etc.) so that I am losing some weight now.

In the bottoms only and nothing stops the itchy feeling, except Neurontin. It's an internal nerve itch, not external. I was scratching on concrete, anything to make it stop.

With HIPAA, anyone who has worked for a reasonable period of time can maintain their level of coverage via self-payments until they have a new job and qualify for this employer's coverage. Yes, if you are constantly switching jobs, with constantly being every year or so, you will be without the employer benefits for some of the time. However, you can always qualify for the state CHIP program if your coverage runs out. Every state has this. Obvioualy the programs are a major drain on tax dollars, but essentially they ensure that NO person suddenly "loses" coverage as you describe due to a loss of employment. They may pay a bit more, but really the CHIP coverage is not prohibitively expensive (except to the states). The real problem is much more complicated, and something that will certainly not be covered in the myriad of NY Times propaganda articles revealing very surface-level gripes with the nature and quality of health coverage. My simplest explanation of the #1 issue facing the US in healthcare reform is as follows: people have no idea what is effective health care. We need incentives that MAKE US PAY. As it stands, there are millions of people taking Lipitor, at a very high financial cost for little benefit (% of harm may even outweigh any statistically questionable benefit over other, much cheaper, meds). The fact is, placebo effects can explain a great deal of the "effectiveness" observed in many medical treatments; double-blind controlled studies are shockingly thin in their support of all but the most obviously necessary medical treatments. As the AMA is clearly on the side of "More Medcine!" and rejecting evidence-based medicine to keep its practicioners free to make whatever arbitrary call they feel on that particular day, I don't expect this to change any time soon. I've been reading some stuff by Robin Hanson on www.overcomingbias.com which has led me to begin questioning our course of action on health care policy. We feel like we deserve these treatments, even when they don't help much if any, and this adds up to make the US utiliize almost DOUBLE the healthcare per capita of any other first-world country. Market or national system is moot- we just need to promote science instead of the Almighty Drug Lobby + AMA which are suspect at best. This is a short post and hopefully makes some sense and you understand my point here, however I can explain further as I get more time if there is any interest (and hopefully provide more data to back up my claims for the inevitable skepticism most have upon hearing this viewpoint).
