If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

Did yall hear about this? I saw it on www.cnn.com 22 drugs patents are expiring and many will become generic making it alot cheaper to get some of the drugs some of us use. There are none on the list of mine but I know several people that have some on the list, this can potentially save people hundreds or thousands of dollars each year..should help alot of people. Not sure of how this affects people outside of the US.
Speak kindly, Live simply, Care deeply, Love generously, and BLAH, HA, HA, LOUDLY! every chance you get.

You can find the list from the below website, 15 in the list ENBREL which is expiring in 23-Oct-2012. Wow at least some good news i am excited to to see if the generic ones are lower priced so that i can afford it (no insurance cover's me). http://www.uspto.gov/patents/resources/terms/156.jsp

Another update on "Follow-on Biologics: A New Play for Big Pharma" by a Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut. If you have not read this article, then please have a look at it, though published in 2010 it is very informative on what's happening in the field of "GENERIC Biologics" http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2892764/

If I am reading the link correctly, my tumor medication may be one of the drugs being offered in its generic form again. I felt better taking the generic than the real McCoy drug.
- Carpal Tunnel in BOTH hands
- Depression (MDD) Major Depressive Disorder
- Pituitary Adenoma
- Scoliosis
- Spinal Arthritis with bone spurs on spine
- Multiple Scoliosis diagnosed
- Herniating spinal disc
- HLAB27+
- Final diagnosis: Mild lumbar spondylosis
Previously told Mechanical Back 'Issues'. Hate this term!
