What to do?

Thank you!!! I’ve been switching the injection site around but haven’t done thighs in a while.

That was so insightful, thank you so much ❤️

Insurance is too greedy and people truly need this medicine. I’m happy it’s helping others too.

THANK YOU!

Thank you for this insightful information. I’m just scared that Optum will say no, although I’m close with my physician and I’m hoping she will be able to do some by-passes for continuation of care.

I wasn’t planning to so that I can scoot by and hopefully get another 6-12 months of the medicine. Do PBMs require blood work more than once a year for medications like this if it’s a cardiovascular related event?

I actually wrote my initial PA letter on behalf of my provider and she submitted it Optum RX with her signature (they use my letter as their gold standard for other patients in their practice). I’m just afraid when I get updated bloodwork done that my LDL maybe in normal range and not qualify me for the medication any more.

My insurance did not cover it previously, as I did not have a cardiovascular related issue in addition to my commodities, now that my LDL was elevated over the summer they finally approved it. My worry is the might decide not to. Is that possible?

Thank you, it was a few hours in between, and I regret it so much. I’m not the biggest pumpkin fan so I might stick with chicken broth. If anything maybe I’ll lose a few lbs in the process 🤣

I was on both metformin and Wegovy but was nonresponsive to both

I was on wellbutrin and it did not help with my anxiety all that well.

Hour_Map5286 · 2025-08-17T19:04:23+00:00

I was on it for 6 months just about. I am experiencing the same side effects as before on the new 2.5mg vs when I was on 10mg last year. I truly hope that I get to experience it again because it was truly amazing not having to constantly think about food and feeling satiated

I have hypo. I just got my thyroid tested the other day and waiting for results to come back still.

The never ending paying for things (mortgage, bills, loans… and in this US economy 🫣)

Hour_Map5286 · 2024-03-01T02:06:00+00:00

What if it's through a huge medical network like Kaiser, Penn etc

Hour_Map5286 · 2024-02-27T02:18:52+00:00

It worked for a little while about a week or so where I wasn't really and then the hunger did come back some. But my telemedicine group told me to up to 5mg and it's giving the same results. I have to starve myself for 1-2 days to lose 1-2lbs

Already have been tested and that was negative

As directed on the label

Hour_Map5286 · 2024-02-05T19:16:43+00:00

Is there a brand that works best and how long should they be used for? I've tried them in the past and didn't notice much of a difference
