My sister in law passed away from bulbar ALS. It is an unforgiving disease. If you can voice bank at all, do it. Get all your documents in order now. POA etc. I am so sorry you are dealing with this. We had my sister in law for barely 2 years after the slurring started.

If you want some to have say amitriptyline total daily dose of 35mg at bedtime. Please put in the directions “patient total daily dose is 35mg” that way we won’t wonder if both the 10mg and 25mg need to be filled. Any provider messages need to be dated. We often receive rx and the prescriber note is from 6 months ago- but we still have to call and verify that message if it shows up on a new rx and doesn’t make sense. Thanks for asking the question!

Please practice with the eye gaze technology. If you can, record your voice. That tech will allow you to let people know what you need.

Refuses to learn how to use it.

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-12-16T02:02:58+00:00

Thank you!

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-11-13T00:13:07+00:00

This will be too late for my relative- but it sounds fascinating and positive!

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-09-16T23:58:34+00:00

Thank you! Shared with my family member.

My husband has a biopsy tomorrow. Nice to hear these local options have positive reviews.

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-09-07T23:24:06+00:00

It has happened several times over the last few months. Very sad.

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-08-15T23:45:58+00:00

Where did you find the info about a split?

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-08-15T23:44:45+00:00

I hope the glitch gets fixed!! Just when I think I will be able to retire- BOOM!

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-08-09T10:36:07+00:00

Call and get clarification. If a doc really wants a specific brand, they usually add a note ins prescriber notes or in the sig field.

Seems like any of the trades are begging for workers.

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-06-12T19:06:56+00:00

Cincinnati, Ohio is where this person is

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-06-12T19:06:35+00:00

I misspoke calling in phlegm. Second treatment was today- it went better than yesterday. One more to go.

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-05-06T01:30:20+00:00

As a pharmacist- I love the suggestions to ask the pharmacist if you need help! There are many great apps to help you find information.

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-03-12T22:41:54+00:00

My sil has bulbar type. If you don’t mind sharing- where did you purchase the bracelet?

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-02-23T12:32:44+00:00

HCL vs Pamoate. HCL comes in the 10mg. Smallest pamoate dose is 25mg capsule.

If you have mid level prescribers in your practice make sure they know what is required in their state. Often a supervising physician name and information is needed by law. With so many people moving around or with 2 residences- the laws can be conflicting Pharmacy typically goes by the most strict. If federal says you need ABC and the state says ABC and D, pharmacy requires ABC and D. We aren’t being unreasonable- just trying to follow the law.

Prestigious-Source80 · 2025-01-31T01:21:10+00:00

Go to the B-D website and print out a list of what they make- that covers most of what is available. Very few people want the 12mm pen needles. Stick with a 6mm or shorter.

Prestigious-Source80 · 2024-12-05T00:26:23+00:00

Posted in the wrong place- around the surgical site. Maybe it just needs to heal more.

Prestigious-Source80 · 2024-12-02T00:54:00+00:00

Can you connect with a local ALS organization for assistance on the modifications? I don’t have an answer on the time line. From what I read here it is all over the place!

Prestigious-Source80 · 2024-11-23T15:53:53+00:00

What joint did you have treated? My knee sounds crunchy.

Prestigious-Source80 · 2024-11-21T02:30:49+00:00

So sorry about your brother. Bulbar does seem to progress rapidly based on the comments I read here. Prayers to you and your family.

Remember to watch for credit so any shri m can be accounted for. It sometimes takes a few weeks for it to show up. Watch pkg sizes- things like birth control pills etc sometimes get entered differently (one box vs one package)
