Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXX
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
You are having Crohn disease which is a chronic disease and can not be cured but only controlled.
As an add on trouble you are having the depression and the ADHD.
Treatment is costly for sure.
You can talk to your physician about cost concern.
There are generic drugs which have approximately comparable efficacy but about quarter costly as compared to Brands.
You can switch to these preparations to cut down on the costs till you get enrolled in your husbands insurance.
I hope the advise will be helpful for you.
