Also, don't forget that since you are eligible to deduct unreimbursed medical expenses to the extent they exceed 10% of your adjusted gross income, don't forget that any out-of-pocket expenses at home can be included (i.e. all doctor copays, prescription copays, mental health, acupuncture, massage, etc). You may as well take advantage of this deduction to the fullest extent possible.
