Want to hear something really scary?

When I was in the Accord program, every time I went in for my new supply of Lantus, the person getting me the Lantus would leave the room, come back and hand me some boxes containing the vials and THEY WERE NEVER COLD. They were all room temperature. I then was told "You only have to refrigerate Lantus after you open it". So what did I know?

When the Accord program was over, and I began to get it from my insurance company's mail order pharmacy, the first time I received it, the doorbell rang, the UPS, or Fed Ex (can't remember which), handed me a big box. I said "what on earth is this?

I opened it and inside was a refrigerated cold pack with Lantus. Overnight Delivery by the way.

I then phoned them because I had never gotten my Lantus that way before and said "you deliver this in a refrigerated box?" and the person said "oh yes, that is how insulin is supposed to be delivered, now you put it in the fridge".

Holy Cow!!!
