Hi SandyH:
What form of medication is Miltex? Pills? Injection? Chemo? Is it in a form that you can self-medicate? I've never heard of it.
I can quite sympathize with you if you have had good success with it in clearing your skin mets for 7 whole months. I would be quite keen to get that medication if I were you too.
I do have ideas, but they don't involve lobbying (as I suspect THAT would take some rediculous amount of time that you don't have) and how useful they would be would depend on how aggressive and desperate that you are as well as what kind of political gain/votes would be in it for the politician that you approached.
1) Get yourself a mailbox in Mexico and have it mailed to yourself there, then physically bring it over the border in another type of prescription pill bottle.
2) Take a holiday in Germany.
3) Arrange for a friend/mule to bring it.
Illegal substances are brought into the States on a regular basis. There is a way of doing this if you are willing and desperate enough to think about it and to flout the law.
If you don't want to break US law, I would suggest taking a holiday in a cheap country such as India. You can live there for about $5-600 @ month in a house including expenses. The doctors are very good there. Arrange to have a Indian doctor give it to you while you holiday over there for a few months (or whatever the necessary time period is). India is an especially good choice because if you have money (and as a US citizen you are relatively rich there) you can buy top-quality medical care and their rules aren't nearly as strict. There are also some states in India were there is an extremely high percentage of Ex-pats living there so there would be LOTS of English speaking people, food and services there that would be comparible to what you could expect in the States.
Hope this gives you food for thought and hope.
Regards,
Merridith
