"i have been taking wellbutrin xl for so many years that i can&#039;t remember when i started it.  it has been the only med that has really worked for me.  i tried generic bupropion and cannot take it because it upsets my stomach and does not have the same effect on my mood or emotions.  

now i am in a quandry.  in march i go on medicare and was already told that medicare will not pay for wellbutrin.  i don&#039;t know what to do.  for about 2 years i have been getting it through the manufacturer&#039;s discount program, but once i go on medicare, i can&#039;t get it through the manufacturer either.  this really stinks!  i hope someone has a solution because i cannot afford $1,500/month for a prescription!"
