Guest guest Posted December 28, 2001 Report Share Posted December 28, 2001 Yes ma'am, you do need to call the doctor. Especially with another holiday weekend coming up. Let us know what he/she says. Take care, Sharon I know Sharon, but I don't think any of my doctors would be reachable this weekend. I guess I will wait until Monday. How are you doing?

I'm not doing so well, and yes, I have been in touch with my doctor. Remicade got approved by our HMO and I am scheduled for my first infusion on the 4th---if I am over this blasted cold/virus/whatever. How are you this morning? Ears any better?

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2001 Report Share Posted December 29, 2001 Hi Sharon, I'll be praying the remicade will be the answer for you. My insurance would not cover the drug for me, because I couldn't tolerate the metho any longer. They would have paid for it if I had been on the metho. Crazy insurance. Please keep me informed on how you are. I will let you know what the doctor says as soon as I can find one. lol You take care, Love Lu O.K. Lu, you get a pass until Monday! Please call then though.

I'm not on MTX anymore either. Called our HMO to see what our co-pay will be and the lady said just the regular pharmace co-pay. Hope she knows what she is talking about. I told her it was in the infusion center at the hospital, and she said it is still just the pharmacy co-pay. Thanks for the prayers. How are you today? Ears any better?

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 Thanks for the prayers. How are you today? Ears any better? Take care, and call that doc tomorrow. Love, Sharon NO, I'm really sick, sicker than I have been in a long time. I hope your insurance does pay for it because Remicade costs a fortune. I'm praying it will work wonders on you.

Sounds as if you need to. Please take care of yourself! My Remicade is going to cost $2,500.00 per infusion. How can any drug cost that much? At that price it had better work! Let us know if you called your doctor yesterday, and take some drugs girl!

But my rheumy knows nothing. He never believes a word I say anyway. I am going to go to him in a couple of weeks but I think this will be my last visit with him. I will start searching for a new one soon. The tumor on the foot? I have no idea? All the doctors around here are not open until after tomorrow. But I will call then. Hey how are you feeling?

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 OUCH! That Heidi is something, but I bet you will soon feel the benefits of working out. Now nudge ne Love you Lu Lu, That was a VERY hard fly swatter she was beating me with. She gave me the cream puff before she sprung it on me that I had to get on her stupid swing walker. She's RUTHLESS!! Keep me in you prayers. Surviving RP is a breeze compared to dealing with Heidi. LOL Love you, T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 8, 2002 Report Share Posted March 8, 2002 HI Sharon, I'm so glad you are doing great! I think I bombarded the mail today with articles. I just kept finding stuff I wanted to share. lol No, my problems aren't over, I still will have to have surgery soon. They had to take me off the chemo because my biopsy site wouldn't heal. Finally It is started to heal somewhat. I really dread the surgery but its got to be done. I'm just praying RP will stay at bay because I can't have the steroids either. My immune system is so screwed up. lol You take care, its so good to hear from you. Love you Lu Hey Lu, Are your problems all taken care of now? Are you all better? Hope so! I've missed you too! Thanks for all the great articles that you sent today. I've moved them all to my RP folder so I can read them later, at my leisure. I'm doing really well! Yeah!

Sorry to hear that you are going to have to have surgery. The thought of coming off all your meds must be pretty scary. I know it would surely scare me! I don't mean to be nosy, but is your surgery scheduled yet? Please keep us informed. I need someone else to worry about!!! At least I can be praying for you. Take good care of yourself, Lu.
