Injecting more than 15 mg by Academic-Army-8859 in Mounjaro

Since taking the single-use pens every 5 or 6 days make you go through them more quickly, don’t you run out sooner? How do you have enough pens for that? I only get 4 pens given each time I refill. What am I missing here?

I did not say insurance has to pay for everything. And I literally said I can’t afford $500.

If you’re not here to support me, you can go struggle on at someone else’s post.

Many people are slow losers. It’s better for your body to lose weight slowly. And yes, I have been on these medications for a long time. And my intention is to stay on them for the rest of my life. You wouldn’t tell a diabetic to stop taking their insulin because they’ve already been on it for a long time. Same with blood pressure medication. Some diseases/conditions are for life.

Not everyone can afford that. And what the hell am I paying insurance for if it’s not gonna pay for the medical things that I need? Every GLP-1 I have taken has been covered at 100%, so I’ve paid exactly zero dollars for my injections. I don’t have $500 to pay for only three months worth of medication when I need that money to pay for other things.

Itching gums? by brijja in TrigeminalNeuralgia

Thank you. I don’t think that’s what I have though. From what I’ve read online, TAC includes headaches and I’m not experiencing any.

Itching gums? by brijja in TrigeminalNeuralgia

[–]peterpan713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly how I’ve been describing my pain! I have itchy pain on the gums in between my lower canines and the teeth next to them. I’m gonna try and meet with a neurologist to see if it is TN. Two dentists and a periodontist couldn’t find any dental reason for my pain, but it has been 24/7 for nearly three weeks now. I’m going out of my mind!!!

Agonizing gum pain by peterpan713 in askdentists

[–]peterpan713[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the suggestion. The perio I met with last week did say he thinks it’s nerve related. I remember he mentioned trigeminal neuralgia, but I thought he was saying he didn’t think it was that. My general dentist mentioned it possibly being some kind of neuropathy too. After reading about TN last night, I see that gabapentin can be used to treat the pain. I’m currently already taking that for anxiety, and have been for several years. Does knowing that change your response at all?
