Q: I and my husband 61 & 65 was evicted Friday (wrongfully). We were trying to get our thing but being seniors and disabled
we lost a lot. I forgot to get my medication I take daily for my health that my Dr prescribed, they will not let me in to get it. I have not had my medication since Friday, and I can feel myself slowly going downhill. My husband called, and they told him no, I could not get it. I just got a 90 refill filled, so my insurance will not pay again I will have to wait, but I don't believe I will make it 90 days. My Dr does not have samples to get me, though. Greenville County Police Officer called to tell them to give me my medication, but they will not answer. I have tried to reach their corporate office, but I can get no one to answer. Can they, by law, keep the medication for me that I need? My husband is recovering from pulmonary embolisms in both lungs and has Rheumoit Artiste Both my knees are bone on bone, and I can hardly walk, needing to be in the hospital having surgery. My Dr said I could do irreversible damage, and I believe I have. I was supposed to go to Steadman Hawkins.
A: A South Carolina attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. I'm sorry for your ordeal. You could continue to await a response, but you describe a difficult situation with the deprivation of your medication, so another option could be to reach out to a landlord-tenant attorney and personal injury attorney to see if it's possible to set up a free initial consult. Good luck
