Unfortunately my wife and I just lost our health insurance and we now find that the combined cost of our medicine will total almost 800 dollars month. I think this is ridiculous! These meds are needed for us to live! Pharmaceutical company heads should be ashamed of themselves. I hope their mansions blow up!

OUCH!
Let me suggest a couple of things that may or may not work. If you have a Costco in your area, get your scripts there. You'll still be paying cash, and the store requires a membership ($55/year per family). Also, if you can get a three months supply, the per month cost often goes down. It's not answer even at best, but maybe it will shave the $800 per month down.
My husband and I did that when I had a poor coverage ($19 for generic meds). It was actually less expensive for us to buy our meds at Costco and pay cash for them than get them with the insurance I had. (Which, I might add, was pretty blesses expensive insurance)
I wish you all the best. And suggest you apply for Affordable (*cough*cough*) in the meantime if you haven't already
