Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Hi , I have Tufts and they cover it under (a prescription for minor) the supplies through caremark. The doctor did all the paper work and it took 3 months and they covered it. you should check with the insurance company to see what supplier they have and they would know more. Sometime the person answering the questions has a yes no sheet. We are in our second week of shots and na is not liking it at all. She is afraid to go into a room alone, well now she will run up stairs and yell " I'm hiding so don't look after me " She hasn't complained of any pain except for the back of the butt a few minutes after the shot is given. i haven't attemped the arms there is nothing there to squeeze. She crys seeing the needle but giving it nothing then she will cry after a little delay. She has always done that with every type of pain, she has texture sensation issues anyways. Before we started them we saw her doctor and had xrays done as Dr H suggested. We now have a base line xray for before gh scoliosis. Yesterday we went to have her urine tested because she has been having accidents alot just since the shots. Has any one ever had this happen? What weekend in October are you thinking of?

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 They don't cover syringes??? How do they expect you to give the GH? Then again, I don't remember but I don't think the syringes are very expensive.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 - I forgot to add that we have had Cigna and Aetna and they cover the syringes. However, I have to have it actually written on the prescription or else it isn't included.
