This is the kinds of things they should be doing for you!!! My case manager negotiated directly with the medical supply company on my behalf. Thats how I got it so cheap. I used to supplement it with the Carnation VHC as it was alot more calories and much cheaper.
Hope you are making progress Michele and you are feeling a little better and stronger everyday.
