I recently started my own business and therefore have had to get my own insurance. However, I had a very difficult time even getting insurance because I have been taking Zoloft for 6 months to treat panic attacks. I'm now off of the Zoloft (day 4 without it, woo hoo!) but I've discovered that I cannot get on a decent insurance plan for another 2 years because of my taking Zoloft. Do I have any recourse to protest this given that the doctor I went to (who was in the same insurance plan) prescribed me the Zoloft in the first place? I'm paying a 20% premium because of it and a higher co-pay despite the fact that I'm perfectly healthy in every other aspect and do not take any other medications.
Thanks
