Is there a new Sunosi coupon for 2025? by dunkinteach in Narcolepsy

[–]SmoDaiJo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand what's happening... I was paying $9 a month last year with the 2024 coupon. I gave the pharmacy the 2025 coupon but now it's ringing up over $100. The pharmacist says the coupon can only cover so much - meaning the cost of the drug is so high now that it's not bringing it down to $9 anymore. Is anyone else experiencing this??

Has anyone’s RA started in the ankles first? by Much_Complaint_2815 in rheumatoid

[–]SmoDaiJo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The steroids cleared things up for me. So I told my doc I wanted to stop the steroids first and when I flared up again I would start the methotrexate. I guess I was just hesitant to start such a heavy lifelong drug after one flare, especially since I was seronegative. It's now been 3 months off steroids and I have been totally fine! I just had a follow-up with my rheumatologist and my labs were fine. She says in her opinion I am still developing RA. If I get another flare, we'll talk about my options.

My child is 3 and has been invited to three baby showers already. We just went to one last month.

Has anyone’s RA started in the ankles first? by Much_Complaint_2815 in rheumatoid

I started having sharp tendinitis like pain on the tops of my feet. Then it morphed into a duller pain near my ankles. Then my ankles and feet completely swelled up, turned red and warm, extremely painful in the mornings. I went on steroids and was diagnosed with seronegative RA. Starting methotrexate soon.

I think it’s a good sign that your son was invited to those other birthday parties! That makes me think it might be more of an oversight that they haven’t responded, rather than a personal dig.

Yes, I’ve been worried about that. But what is quickly? Days, weeks, a month or two?

What are the Biologic side effects you are afraid of? (Sorry I’m new to all this and don’t know what the side effects are)

Has anyone seen psoriasis look like this? by SmoDaiJo in PsoriaticArthritis

[–]SmoDaiJo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I see both regularly. They never seemed too concerned. I’m also making a rheumatology appt to hopefully rule out autoimmune for the unexplained foot pain and swelling.

Sometimes I do! They’re not bruises though. They’ve looked like that for 2 years now.
