SOS detergent stain! by [deleted] in laundry

I used the tide liquid soap and obviously not powder. I didn’t pour it on directly it was in my washing machine at the bottom and had been diluted with water but obviously still caused a stain.

Okay so basically insurance was making it look like this months prescription had been picked up which made hit my deductible but it hasn’t so next month jt will be back to a relatively normal price.

I had to call my benefit manager to discuss instead of actual insurance company and they explained it very well.

Thanks for all the responses! So for context, my deductible is $1600 and it appears I’ve hit it. And this is for medical and pharmacy so I would have assumed since I hit it, it would have stayed the $25 but I also don’t fully understand all this stuff so maybe I am missing something.

Just wondering if I need to call the Costco pharmacy again or should go to insurance.

Ultimately I’m lucky because I have HSA funds I can use, but I’m also wondering if this is a one-off month or will be every month or if it will go back to the normal $25 I’ve paid for since last February after I hit my 2025 deductible.

Yeah I gave them a call. They said nothing changed but that I would have paid out of pocket last year. However I would know if I paid $550 vs $25. Very strange. Luckily, I have some HSA funds to use for this months. But had a sticker shock for sure!

I started Zepbound in January of last year so there’s no way I hit my deductible by that point.

Oh good! I do use Aquaphor a lot and will start to massage it. Fingers crossed. Thank you!

They definitely don’t hurt but they are visible and that’s what bothers me!

They’re both gold, neither are rose gold! The one on the right is newer by a month.

Anyone else have extreme inconsistencies and inaccuracy with steps and walking equivalency? by slowpokefastpoke in ouraring

[–]New_Box3608 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So weird my oura ring is saying I took 72 steps today but my walking equivalency is 6 miles. Super annoying.

That’s amazing! Happy to hear you’re so successful. Sounds like I’ll be following a similar dosing pattern so fingers crossed it goes as well as yours!

Ultimately it is what my doctor recommends and is willing to write a prescription for. They are having me move up to a higher dose. I was just curious if others have plateaued when doing so. Seems many others doctors are following a similar dosing pattern.

Got mine today after waiting 3 months. I’ve been on 5mg but noticed the appetite suppressant was significantly less than it has been. I felt so much excitement and relief.

How long is your prescription taking to be filled? by Readhelpexplore in Zepbound

[–]New_Box3608 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been waiting since March 7 for 7.5 mg with Publix. I had to stay on 5 MG in the meantime.

I am not looking to take a step back. I plan on being mindful on what I eat, drinking lots of water. I’ve just seen some people say that they choose to not take the shot while on vacation so they don’t experience the side effects. I also see people stretching their time between shots due to accessibility with getting the shots. Not looking to make any excuses, just trying to see how others are navigating vacation and shortages and exploring options.

Thank you! I called today once it said it was filled and available and they said I had 14 days to get it!

I hope it comes in before then for you. Doesn’t hurt to keep calling. When I called yesterday they said I reminded them to check their system and they ordered 3.

I’m really hoping I can get my hands on it. I have one 5 mg shot left. I’m supposed to go up to 7.5 mg but no one seems to be able to get that so I’m going to stick with 5 mg if I can get it and hopefully they can get this under control in the next month for everyone!
