I just tried to inject myself with Praulent. I thought I was following directions but the needle popped up and I don't know if it got my thumb. It was s upposed to go into my stomach. I called my doctor and was told to bring it in on thursday My anxiety is through the roof.
then my pharmacy wanted to make me pay 75 dollars for aplenzin. Last time I paid 30 dollars for three months and epic accepted it. They said epic didn't accept this time. I called Epic and they say they accept it but the pharmacy left out some things. I am waiting to hear back from the pharmacy. I think from now on I will have nurse in the doctor's office inject me with Praluent. I can't take the pressure. I guess the cab fare round trip with be over 30 dollars twice a month. I am so scared.

I sure wish you had a friend who could take you to get your injection.
Any chance an visiting nurse could come and do it. You might check
into whether the agency that sends Marci and things like OT and
stuff. Can do it. Ask your doctor's about it too.

I would think you could get this service.

I went today and the dr. said it looked like I got the injection in. decided from now on I will go there and have their nurse do it. I can get a volunteer from Dorot to go with me.
I haven't heard from Robert and am worried. I won't hear from the pharmacy until tomorrow afternoon. I am so stressed

Oh bobby, am sorry you had a hard time with the injection....so frustrating doing something new.So the injections are twice a month or every 2 weeks...it makes a difference, 24 times per year or 26 times per year.
I am sorry you will have the additional costs for cabs.
You will make it work.
I have faith in you.
love bizi

thanks. when I first did it at the doctor's office the needle didn't shoot up. I don't know what happened but it really scared me. I don't want to gothrew that again.
Robert is
okay. His cell phone battery went dead and his doctor's appointment ran over.
Love
bobby

He is about 77 and in the past he has had heart problems. He is very slim and walks miles a day with his dog. I just looked at my credit card balance. It was even worse than I thought. I did check the items but I am sure it is right. My dentist cost 200. My psychiatrist cost 125. My insurance cost 170.The csmartphone and minutes cost 141 dollars. The annual freshdirect delivery cost 141. There were a lot of cab drives. I bought a lot of things. Hopefully next months will be a lot less. I spent almost 100 dollars on Alice's birthday but that hasn't shown up yet. Might take more money out of savings.
love
bobby
