Hi Folks!

I know we can write off our expenses after we surpass 10% of our income in medical expenses.

I would like to hear specifically what you have written off on your taxes? Other than the surgery, doc visits and medications, I have seen Protein drinks/powders listed as ok to write off. What else?

Anything I buy for the surgery? Heating pads? FitBit?

I have never used a tax person before and I don't personally know one. I'd rather not spend the money on one. We always ending up owing taxes (however, no clue why). When I was single and rented, I always got back $600-800. After getting married and owning a house, we have owed every year even though we put single and 0 for dependents on our W-4 and have the max taken out of our paychecks.

Thanks so much!

Keep track of your mileage to and from doctors appointment and the pharmacy. You can claim it.

Oh, keep a little note book with dates, mileage, co-pays, Makes it easier to keep track of.
