I'm sorry to hear about your situation. Here are some options for getting medication assistance:

1. Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs):
- Many pharmaceutical companies offer PAPs to help people pay for HIV medications. These programs are available regardless of immigration status.
- You can find more information and apply via HIV.gov under the section “Non-Federal Resources To Help Pay for HIV Medication.”

2. Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program:
- Local health centers or Ryan White caseworkers can help you get connected to this program, which helps cover treatment costs.

3. Emergency Medicaid:
- If HIV is causing a medical emergency, you are eligible for emergency Medicaid coverage. This will cover you only in emergency situations.

4. Nonprofits:
- Organizations like Good Days may provide coverage for specific treatments or aspects of your care. Check their eligibility criteria and application process.

5. Local Health Centers:
- These centers provide HIV care, including testing and prevention, regardless of immigration status or ability to pay.

Look for an infectious doctor near you and go get medicine; most clinics will enroll you in the Ryan White program, where you will get free treatment, insurance, and even housing.
