Worst medical aid.

I was diagnosed with osteoporoses and the Dr gave me a prescription. I asked the pharmacist to see if she can help to get it as chronic medicine. Guess what they declined it. My story... my husband did implants as he has a huge problem with his teeth. They took all our savings for that and we still have to pay about R80000. In the meantime I had to pay a dentist for 1 of my teeth R881 In August I fell and had a T12 FRACTURE. I had to pay xrays. And the sonar. And the ER at the hospital.The dr to follow up I had to pay. The mri scan and a bone density which my co payment was more than R5000. The neurologist was R1008. The medicine he prescribed was R1700. So what is the use of payiing more than R70000 per year if you only get a savings account for about R19000. And no there is no help. You can ask till you drop dead. No help from discovery. I dont think the sum adds up.
