Ocrevus infusion not looking good for Monday due to insurance

Ocrevus infusion not looking good for Monday due to insurance

Can you sue an insurance company for stress? I know you can sue debt collectors if their actions cause undue stress. I was wondering about insurance. The stress that I’ve been under for this last week dealing with my insurance is ridiculous. Everyday I speak to them I get a different answer. Yesterday I was told they were waiting for clinical notes and a copy of my last MRI showings I have relapse remitting MS. I can understand if this…

Ocrevus infusion still not approved, I kid you not…

You can’t make this sh@t up. I get a call from the girl working on my infusion authorization, my insurance company wants to know the name, address and telephone number of my pharmacy where I am currently getting my prescriptions. The girl who called me really tried to be professional as possible but had the same reaction I had which was… WTF???? Will you be sending Ocrevus to my local CVS for me to pick up and take to NYC…

I’m a dog person

I’m a dog person

My mother and stepdad aren’t animal people. They don’t dislike them but neither of them grew up with animals so they never wanted one. I was only allowed fish when I was younger. Imagine the horror when I came home with a bunny my senior year of college. Let’s just say the bunny ended up at a pet store before I moved back home. Within a month of me moving into my first apartment I ended up with 2 cats….

A Course in Miracles Round 2

A Course in Miracles Round 2

I heard a great line yesterday, when you point your finger in blame, three fingers are pointing back at you. I was never one to not own my mistakes. It might have taken me a little to process them but I always owned them in the end. My problem was always how I couldn’t get over how unfair it was that I owned my mistake, why doesn’t the other person. Sometimes my “theory of unfarity” became anger and obsession. I’m…

Smile it’s contagious

Smile it’s contagious

Yesterday I drove to physical therapy as normal and when I was getting out of my car, I realized how hot and humid it really was out. Normally I wouldn’t go on days like that, but I was there already, I wasn’t going to turn around and go home. So I hobbled my way in and the normal secretary, Millie, was there. Not thinking anything new, I did my typical good morning smile with a  “happy Friday Millie, how you…

Here we go again, accept and adapt

Here we go again, accept and adapt

After 8+ years, I have to give up my normal everyday workout routines. I need to find something else that works that doesn’t aggravate my shoulder tendonitis. My wonderful therapists over at physical therapy have started adding in arm exercises to help build up my arm muscles again. The plan is that instead of going 2 days a week to go to therapy 3 days a week. The focus is going to change to building up arm strength to better…

Ocrevus infusion scheduled for August 7

Ocrevus infusion scheduled for August 7

Sure, it is scheduled, but the approval isn’t there. I received a call the other day from the insurance company that the expedited review has been denied. So I called the insurance company. I was told that the infusion was still under review. Under review for what??? When I tried to get Rituxan approved, the denial was because Rituxan wasn’t a FDA approved drug for multiple sclerosis. The denial letter went on to tell me based on my history that…

Vegan Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Vegan Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

I’ve posted this recipe before and I’m putting it up again, why? Because it is DELICIOUS!!! Actually it is because, I gave up white sugar and buying foods made with sugar, which includes my vegan cookies I eat almost daily. I decided if I’m going to consume sugar, I’m going to be the one making the recipe so I can account for the actual type of sugar and the amount of sugar used. Ingredients: 1⁄3 cup almond butter 2 tablespoons…
