I have been diagnosed with Pseudo Bulbar Palsy in Feb 12 with negative EMG involvement. I desperately need medicare as I am having problems swallowing, breathing, and speaking. I will have a second EMG on Aug 23 and my insurance with my previous employer will end on August 31. I do not know how I will afford Cobra at $1200 a month without my income. My husband is self employed and I am virtually uninsurable. My Dr. refuses to give me an ALS diagnosis at this point. I value each of you as I have tried to be active in the forum for several months. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
