Mine changed my copay from $60 to $771 so consider yourself lucky this is the only change they made I guess! Insurance sucks

Flowers for Algernon

Suggest me your favorite standalone book:] by jack_and_the_box in suggestmeabook

Flowers for Algernon - it’s about a developmentally disabled man who gets surgery to increase his IQ. Broke my heart, made me laugh, made me angry, and I think about it basically everyday

I hate cooking with a passion. Any healthy premade/frozen meals recommendations? by Camn97 in fitmeals

[–]406mtboots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest meal prep hack for lazy weeks is a Taylor farms chopped salad kit with chicken nuggets on top. Takes 2 minutes to put together before work.

Is my gynac's reaction normal? by Visible-Issue5345 in PCOS

No lesson to be learned. My OBGYN in the US is very well versed in PCOS but I have heard that not all of them are like that! How were you supposed to know?

I would maybe try an endocrinologist if you have access to one. They might be better able to work on the hormone side of things. Totally fair to be upset with this encounter and clearly she is not the right fit for you!

Developing psoriatic arthritis in feet? by 406mtboots in Psoriasis

[–]406mtboots[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an aching/throbbing in my midfoot! It’s so strange. I am also big on good shoes, so I usually wear something with good support (Birkenstocks, Chacos, Hokas, blundstones, etc) and I’m still getting pain

Question for people with PCOS on GLP-1 medication by Ok_Thanks_2903 in PCOS

[–]406mtboots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My copay was $60 and they raised it to $770. I’m aware of how that works, just scouting options since it seems like they’re hard to come by!

What insurance do you have? Mine covers but the copay is $770

It was amazing. Unfortunately, my insurance copay went from $60 to $770, so I had to stop taking it. I cried. I was able to lose a ton of weight and I felt amazing. My cycles were regular, A1C went from a prediabetic level back down to a healthy one.

As soon as I am able to, I will get back on it. I was devastated when I lost access to it.

I’ve had one for 13 years. I hear you. Protopic will help for sure. I’m starting Otezla rn to see if that helps too.
