It sounds like you're facing high copayments for your breast cancer medication despite having insurance. Here are a few resources and strategies that might help you manage these costs:

1. **Patient Assistance Programs**: Some pharmaceutical companies offer programs to help cover the cost of medications. For example, Pfizer has a program for the underinsured that might allow you to get your medications for free.

2. **Pharmacy Discount Programs**: Check if there are any discount programs at pharmacies in your area. Sometimes these can offer lower prices than what you might pay even with insurance.

3. **Generic Medications**: Ask your doctor if there is a generic version of your medication available, which is typically less expensive than brand-name drugs.

4. **Financial Assistance at Hospitals**: Speak with social workers or financial counselors at the hospital or clinic where you receive treatment. They often know about local resources and programs to help manage medical costs.

5. **Online Resources**: Websites like the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy can guide you to legitimate online pharmacies that might offer lower prices.

6. **Manufacturer Coupons and Copay Cards**: Some drug manufacturers offer coupons or copay cards that can help reduce the cost of your medication.

It's important to explore these options and discuss them with your healthcare provider to find the best solution for your situation.
