Update on CVS

In my post from Feb 4, I mentioned that CVS would give Weslee only 1 box of his seizure rescue nasal spray. There are times when we go through both in a 24 hour period. No way a single box can last an entire month.

I sent a message to Weslee's epileptologist, asking for their help.  They must have sent CVS a supplemental RX because, surprise surprise, within 48 hours, I got a denial text from them.  

"It's too soon." 

I assume CVS got this message from the insurance company.

Seriously?

Don't they (insurance companies et al) understand the concept of RESCUE?

What do people with EPI pens do? Do they have to wait too? Or people with insulin dependent diabetes who need more than what they got in the most recent med pick up?

I would pay for it out of pocket but I don't have a spare thousand lying around.

Restocked

I was finally able to pick up Weslee's seizure rescue nasal spray today. Only one box, so 2 doses, which won't last long the way things are going.

Still, grateful CVS fulfilled the order.

Sidenote: went to grocery on the way back home. Only had $35 so it didn't stretch far considering the price of almost everything was so much ... more. But the autistic part of him begs for Blue Machine juices as part of his weekend routine. (Complicated, which involves wearing specific clothing, using his correct pillow, etc.)

We just had a serious talk about tightening our belts because of increased prices. Even discussed getting quail again, mostly for eggs.

My book sales are very slowly picking up. Mostly my "The Bored Book". Hoping it continues to gain momentum.

And thankful I already have my art/craft supplies, so I did more painting yesterday. With input from a friend, decided to make ALL backgrounds for my bookmarks etc on the black shimmer paper, so need to redo that group tommorow.

After all of my errands today, my back is killing me. Heating pad...here I come!

Frustation

Got a text relatively early this morning from CVS regarding Weslee's seizure rescue spray. Basically it said they're working on it. Might be a couple of days. So yeah. Frustration.

Luckily, he didn't need it today.
